What is the normal fuel consumption of the FAW J6P 350?
2 Answers
The normal fuel consumption of the FAW J6P 350 is around 8 liters. The FAW J6P is a world-class commercial vehicle platform independently developed by FAW Jiefang, synchronizing with global truck development technology and tailored to China's specific conditions. After five years of meticulous refinement and three generations of development, it features reliability, economy, power, safety, and comfort. It can be divided into two major series, the J6P and J6M, targeting the heavy-duty truck market and the quasi-heavy-duty truck market, respectively. Here are specific methods to reduce fuel consumption: 1. Lightly press the accelerator: When starting at low speeds, the car enters a peak fuel consumption zone. Therefore, gently pressing the accelerator during startup prevents excessively high RPMs, effectively reducing fuel consumption. 2. Avoid high RPMs: Try to avoid unnecessary high RPMs, as fluctuating engine speeds can significantly increase fuel consumption. 3. Regular maintenance: Change the engine oil and remove carbon deposits periodically. 4. Avoid emergency braking: Anticipate road conditions in advance to avoid emergency braking. This not only improves driving safety but also saves fuel. For example, gradually slow down before traffic lights and utilize inertia to coast.
I've driven the FAW J6P350 many times, with fuel consumption typically fluctuating between 35 to 40 liters per 100 kilometers. On long-distance highways with a load under 5 tons, it can drop to just over 30 liters; but with heavy loads like over 10 tons in mountainous areas, fuel consumption can soar to around 45 liters. Driving habits matter a lot—maintaining steady speeds and avoiding sudden braking or acceleration, along with regular air filter and oil changes, can save quite a bit of fuel. Also, pay attention to tire pressure checks. Low tire pressure increases resistance and raises fuel consumption. It's recommended to check it monthly—developing this habit helps keep fuel consumption within a reasonable range.
