The Buick GL8 has higher fuel consumption than the SAIC MAXUS G10. The fuel consumption of the Buick GL8 and the SAIC MAXUS G10 is as follows: 1. Buick GL8 MIIT comprehensive fuel consumption: 8.5L/100km. 2. SAIC MAXUS G10 MIIT comprehensive fuel consumption: 8.1L/100km. The maximum power and maximum torque comparison between the Buick GL8 and the SAIC MAXUS G10 is as follows: 1. Maximum power: Buick GL8 is 191kW, SAIC MAXUS G10 is 110kW. 2. Maximum torque: Buick GL8 is 350N·m, SAIC MAXUS G10 is 350N·m.
I've been driving a GL8 for three years for reception duties, and switched to a G10 last year for long-distance trips. To be honest, fuel consumption really depends on driving technique. On the highway, the GL8 2.0T shows just over 9L/100km, while the G10 diesel version can go as low as 8.3L. But in city traffic jams, the GL8 is actually more fuel-efficient - its start-stop system is smarter than the older G10's. Last week when picking up passengers, I met a driver with the new G20 who complained about the automatic transmission's shift logic pushing fuel consumption up to 12L/100km, making veteran GL8 owners secretly pleased. If you frequently carry seven passengers uphill, the bulky G10 does consume more fuel - a difference of 1.5L isn't surprising.
Just helped the company fleet with procurement comparisons. After reviewing the MIIT data, I found that the GL8 Landoon hybrid averages just over 7L, while the regular version averages 9.8L. The G10 gasoline manual is rated at 10.2L, but the automatic jumps straight to 11.5L. During customer test drives, I particularly noticed that the G10's throttle response is a bit sluggish, making it easy to unconsciously press harder. However, its loading capacity is an advantage. Last Wednesday when transporting equipment, the GL8 couldn't fit everything so we switched to the G10. The moment the fuel consumption gauge hit 14L, I really wanted to cry.
