Which mode is more fuel-efficient for the Geely Boyue Pro?
3 Answers
Geely Boyue's ECO mode is more fuel-efficient to a certain extent. Here are the relevant introductions: 1. Geely Boyue: The Geely Boyue integrates Chinese cultural elements with international fashion trends in its exterior design. In terms of intelligence, it also "excels in smart technology", leading the new trend of SUVs with intelligent safety, intelligent driving, intelligent comfort, and intelligent connectivity. 2. ECO: The name ECO is derived from the synthesis of Ecology, Conservation, and Optimization. From its inception, it has been based on the fundamental concepts of technicality, environmental friendliness, and economy in design and development. These three characteristics have also become the enduring qualities pursued by the ECO intelligent engine family series products.
When driving the Geely Boyue Pro, the most fuel-efficient mode I experienced as an owner is the Eco mode. On highways, switching to Eco mode results in softer throttle response and slower acceleration, but fuel consumption significantly decreases. For example, in normal mode, fuel consumption is 9L/100km, while in Eco mode it can drop to around 7.5L. The transmission shifts up earlier to maintain low engine speeds, delivering notable fuel-saving effects. In urban traffic congestion, the Eco mode also helps, with the intelligent start-stop function automatically turning off the engine to reduce idling waste, keeping fuel consumption within about 8L. Driving habits are also crucial—maintaining a steady speed of around 60km/h and avoiding sudden acceleration, combined with Eco mode, can further improve efficiency. Additionally, regularly checking tire pressure and keeping it at the standard value is important, as low tire pressure increases friction and leads to higher fuel consumption. Remember to have the system calibrated during quarterly maintenance to ensure everything runs optimally, saving fuel and enhancing safety, which is especially critical for long trips. In summary, the Boyue Pro's Eco mode is the top choice for fuel efficiency, particularly suitable for daily commutes or road trips, and is highly recommended for priority use.
Using the Geely Boyue Pro for commuting, I found the Eco mode to be the most fuel-efficient, especially during city traffic jams. The engine's power output is limited, and acceleration response slows down, but the average fuel consumption drops from 10 liters to below 8 liters. It can also work with the start-stop system to save fuel when idling. During highway driving, the Eco mode keeps the transmission in higher gears for cruising, with fuel consumption around 7 liters—much lower than in Sport mode. For everyday driving, I prefer gently pressing the accelerator to accelerate slowly, maintaining smoothness and reducing frequent lane changes to stabilize fuel consumption. Don’t forget to check tire pressure regularly; if it’s too low, it wastes fuel unnecessarily. So, I test it monthly and keep it properly inflated—saving money and hassle. The Eco mode might feel a bit sluggish, but saving money is what matters most, making it ideal for budget-conscious drivers like me.
