What is the real fuel consumption of the Roewe i6max?
4 Answers
The comprehensive fuel consumption of the Roewe i6max is 5.9L/100km. There are currently 4 models of the Roewe i6max on sale: the Cool Edition, Cool Intelligent Driving Edition, Cool Panoramic Sunroof Edition, and Cool Panoramic Sunroof Intelligent Driving Supreme Edition, all with a comprehensive fuel consumption of 5.9L/100km. The above figures are based on the NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption, which is the fuel consumption data measured under the NEDC test procedure. The real fuel consumption is higher than this value, ranging from 5.9-6.1L/100km. Here are 5 tips to help reduce fuel consumption while driving: When starting the vehicle, use a low gear, gently press the accelerator, and gradually increase speed. Avoid suddenly pressing the accelerator hard, as this can multiply fuel consumption. Light acceleration, light braking, and early braking: While driving, gently press the accelerator to avoid sudden increases in engine RPM and prevent the car from shaking, making it more fuel-efficient. By anticipating road conditions and applying slow and even acceleration or braking, fuel economy can be improved by up to 20%. Maintain proper tire pressure: Keep tire pressure at the level recommended by the manufacturer. For every 2 PSI below the recommended value (approximately 0.2 in metric units relative to the standard pressure of 2.4), fuel consumption increases by 1%. Regular vehicle maintenance or checks: Timely oil changes can reduce carbon buildup (carbon buildup can cause ignition issues, sluggish acceleration, increased fuel consumption, and even cylinder misfires in severe cases). Regularly check and replace the air filter, clean or replace the fuel injectors, spark plugs, and throttle body as per the recommended mileage. Keep windows closed while driving. Driving with windows open increases wind resistance, which in turn increases the resistance the car faces, requiring more power and thus increasing fuel consumption.
I've been driving the Roewe i6 Max for a while now. During rush hour traffic in the city, the fuel consumption can jump to 7-8 liters per 100 kilometers, but it's quite economical on the highway, usually around 6 liters. The overall real average fuel consumption is about 7L. The official figure is 5.9L, but in practice, it's usually a bit higher. I've calculated that commuting costs around 600 yuan per month in fuel, which isn't expensive. I recommend coasting in neutral more often, starting smoothly, and using the air conditioning less to reduce fuel consumption. Also, check the tire pressure regularly. The car has a spacious and stable ride, and its fuel consumption is average compared to other cars in its class. It's definitely worth it for daily use.
As a car enthusiast, I've studied the Roewe i6 Max and found its 1.5T engine quite efficient, but real-world fuel consumption typically fluctuates between 6.5 to 8L. Official data comes from lab tests, whereas frequent starts or using AC in reality can add 1L. The transmission system is well-optimized, but fuel efficiency drops slightly on poor roads. Compared to my friend's joint-venture car, this one manages fuel consumption decently. Paying attention to shift timing and gentle throttle use can save a lot in the long run.
When driving the Roewe i6 Max, I feel that fuel consumption directly affects carbon emissions. The actual daily consumption of 6 to 8 liters means emitting about 15 kilograms of carbon dioxide per 100 kilometers. Naturally, this is higher compared to pure electric vehicles, but through reasonable driving habits such as maintaining a steady speed and avoiding sudden acceleration, fuel consumption can be reduced to below 6.5 liters. When choosing a car, don't just look at the official figures; actual fuel efficiency is the key, benefiting both the environment and your wallet.
