For common household domestic SUVs, most have engine displacements ranging from 1.6 to 2.0 liters, with automatic transmissions being widely used. For this category, the actual fuel consumption is estimated to be around 10 liters per 100 kilometers. Factors affecting fuel consumption: The driver's habits, road conditions, the weight of items placed in the vehicle, whether the air conditioning is on, and whether the vehicle is in the break-in period—all these factors can influence the vehicle's fuel consumption. Ways to reduce fuel consumption: Start in a low gear, gently press the accelerator, and gradually increase speed; avoid prolonged idling or low-speed driving; prevent the vehicle from being overloaded and the fuel tank from being full; avoid using high-viscosity engine oil; try to control speed with the accelerator rather than the brake.

Just bought a domestic SUV, like the Haval H6, the fuel consumption in urban areas is usually between 9 to 13 liters per 100 kilometers, which is normal. On highways, it can drop to around 7 to 9 liters. I usually drive smoothly, avoiding sudden acceleration, and my fuel consumption stays around 10 liters. It also depends on the engine displacement; for example, a 1.5T engine is more fuel-efficient than a 2.0L one. Maintenance also affects fuel consumption; regularly changing the air filter and checking tire pressure can make the car more fuel-efficient. Recently, I tried the Chery Tiggo 8, and its fuel consumption was slightly higher at 12 liters, but the spacious interior makes it worth it. In summary, a fuel consumption range of 8-15 liters for domestic SUVs is reasonable, and choosing smaller displacement or hybrid models can save more money.

From a technical perspective, the fuel consumption of domestic SUVs is significantly influenced by engine type and weight. Mainstream models like the BYD Song PLUS or Changan CS55 typically average around 10 liters. For example, gasoline-powered vehicles with a 1.5T turbocharged engine are more efficient, consuming 8-11 liters; hybrid models like the Lynk & Co 01 can achieve as low as 6 liters. Other influencing factors include the transmission, vehicle weight, and aerodynamics, while driving habits such as sudden braking can increase fuel consumption by up to 20%. Based on my experience, checking official data before purchasing is advisable, with real-world tests being more accurate. Maintaining controlled speeds in urban conditions is crucial for fuel efficiency. Regular maintenance of the engine and fuel system can also optimize fuel consumption, saving money and being environmentally friendly.

Focusing on environmental protection, the fuel consumption of domestic SUVs ranging from 8 to 15 liters is considered conventional, but high fuel consumption imposes a significant burden on the environment. It is recommended to opt for new energy vehicles such as the XPeng G3 electric version, which offers zero emissions and is much better. Pay attention to driving techniques, such as smooth starts and reducing air conditioning usage, which can lower fuel consumption by 10%. From my personal habits, driving a Geely Boyue in the city consumes 10 liters, but planning routes to avoid congestion helps save fuel. I call on everyone to pay attention to fuel consumption issues and contribute to emission reduction—small actions can lead to big changes.

From an economic perspective, domestic SUVs consume too much fuel, which is hard on the wallet. The normal fuel consumption is 9-12 liters per 100 kilometers, equivalent to a monthly fuel cost of around 600 yuan. For example, the Roewe RX5 can be driven more economically if kept under 8 liters. I've noticed that using the air conditioning increases fuel consumption, so switching to opening windows saves both fuel and money. When purchasing a car, opting for smaller displacement models like the Baojun 530 with a fuel consumption of 7 liters is more economical. In terms of maintenance, regularly servicing the air filter and checking tire pressure can save dozens of yuan each month. Developing these habits helps keep fuel consumption within a reasonable range of under 10 liters.

What Are the Reasons Why an Automatic Car Won't Start?

Here are the specific reasons why an automatic car won't start: 1. Check if the battery has power. Power loss due to leaving headlights on for extended periods or an expired battery lifespan, as well as installing xenon headlights, high-power audio systems, or DVD players, can also cause vehicle circuit failures. 2. Check if there is fuel. Also, pay attention to fuel quality. 3. Lack of antifreeze. Some car owners add water or low-quality antifreeze, which can freeze the cooling system in winter, crack the engine, prevent the car's water pump from functioning, and cause the car not to start, while also damaging other engine components. 4. Wrong gear position. When starting an automatic car, the gear must be in P (Park) or N (Neutral). If it's in R (Reverse) or D (Drive), the car won't start.

Which provinces have implemented China 6 emission standards?

Provinces that have implemented China 6 emission standards include Guangdong Province, Beijing, Shanghai, Tianjin, Shandong Province, Shanxi Province, Hebei Province, Henan Province, Chongqing, Sichuan Province, Anhui Province, Zhejiang Province, Jiangsu Province, Shanxi Province, and Hainan Province. The impact of China 6 standards on owners of China 4 and China 5 vehicles is as follows: 1. China 4 vehicles are likely to face license plate restrictions. For the new car market, the impact is not particularly significant. The current number of China 4 vehicles in circulation is still very large. Once license plate restrictions are imposed on China 4 vehicles, combined with the used car relocation policy, it will have a significant impact on the resale value of China 4 vehicles. As for whether there will be driving restrictions, it depends on the policies of each city, but there should be no impact in the short term. 2. The impact on China 5 vehicle owners is relatively smaller compared to China 4 owners. Restrictions on road usage are still some time away, as the China 5 standard was only implemented in 2017, so China 5 owners can rest assured. The only unavoidable impact is on resale value.

Which gear to use for uphill driving with a manual-automatic transmission?

When driving uphill with a manual-automatic transmission, switch to manual mode and select 1st or 2nd gear to maintain the engine speed above 3000 rpm for optimal climbing performance. Below are the specific steps for uphill driving with a manual-automatic transmission: 1. Engage the handbrake. When starting the vehicle, first firmly press the brake pedal with your right foot, then shift to 1st or 2nd gear. 2. Release the brake and move your right foot to the accelerator pedal. Gradually apply throttle while slowly releasing the handbrake with your right hand. 3. When going downhill, use 1st or 2nd gear without pressing the accelerator pedal.

Can a tire still be used if a piece of rubber is chipped off the tread?

If the area where the rubber is chipped off the tread of the tire is not large and the damage is relatively shallow, then the tire can still be used. However, for safety reasons, it is best to replace the tire to prevent potential safety hazards while driving and avoid unnecessary trouble. Here are some tire maintenance methods: 1. Check the tread depth, as it affects the tire's grip and drainage capabilities; 2. Check the tire pressure by measuring it regularly; 3. Inspect the condition of the spare tire; 4. Check the degree of tire wear; 5. Check the age of the tire, etc.
