What is the typical fuel consumption of the Geely Boyue manual transmission?
2 Answers
Real fuel consumption of the Geely Boyue manual transmission: The combined cycle fuel consumption ranges between 7.2~8.2 liters, urban cycle fuel consumption between 10.5~11.5 liters, and suburban cycle fuel consumption between 5.4~6.4 liters. These are the values displayed on the instrument panel, but the actual fuel consumption tends to be slightly higher than the displayed values. Overall, the Boyue's fuel consumption is somewhat on the higher side, with the 1.8L engine consuming more than the 2.0L engine, and the automatic transmission models showing significantly higher fuel consumption than the manual transmission models. Here are some relevant details: 1. Four-wheel-drive models: Since the Boyue offers four-wheel-drive models, their fuel consumption is noticeably higher, which significantly raises the overall fuel consumption level. However, for a compact SUV, the Boyue's fuel consumption performance is considered average—not very high, but not low either. Compared to the Tiguan, its fuel consumption is slightly higher. 2. Reasons for high fuel consumption: The sudden increase in the Boyue's fuel consumption can mainly be attributed to maintenance and driving habits. In terms of maintenance, factors include not replacing the air filter, fuel filter, engine oil and oil filter for a long time, abnormal tire pressure, using incorrect grades of engine oil or fuel, and not cleaning the throttle body or replacing spark plugs as per the maintenance schedule.
I've been driving a Geely Boyue 1.8T manual transmission for three years. For daily city commuting, the displayed fuel consumption is usually between 8.5-9.5L, and it can go slightly over 10L in summer when using AC. The last time I drove on a national highway at a cruise speed of 70 km/h, the fuel consumption dropped to 7.2L, which was a pleasant surprise. For fuel-saving tips, never follow some drivers who frequently shift gears at 3000 rpm - the advantage of manual transmission lies in pedal control, and coasting in anticipation of traffic lights is particularly important. The car weighs just over 1.6 tons, and I personally think this fuel consumption is acceptable. My colleague's Haval H6 manual performs similarly in terms of fuel efficiency.
