Why is the fuel consumption of the Binyue so high?

[DelBrielle]

It is related to daily driving habits, road conditions, and maintenance status. Below is more information about the Geely Binyue: 1. Power: Equipped with a three-cylinder engine jointly developed by Volvo and Geely, with a maximum power of 177 horsepower and a peak torque of 255Nm. The transmission is paired with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch gearbox, achieving a 0-100km/h acceleration time of just 7.9 seconds. 2. Exterior: The Geely Binyue adopts Geely's family-style design, featuring a sporty front hood design below the grille, with the black grille perfectly complementing the overall look.

As a Binyue owner for nearly two years, I've noticed its urban fuel consumption is indeed on the higher side. This might relate to its 1.5T engine - delivers quick acceleration at low speeds but guzzles more fuel. With frequent city traffic jams and stop-and-go driving, it's particularly thirsty. AC usage pushes consumption higher in summer, same with heater in winter. Being heavier than sedans with greater aerodynamic drag, it performs better on highways but isn't fuel-efficient in cities. Suggestions: drive gently without sudden acceleration; regularly maintain air filters and spark plugs for slight improvement. Also check tire pressure - underinflation increases resistance. Overall, its sporty design means accepting this fuel economy for daily commutes - you'll gradually adapt.

Let me talk about the high fuel consumption of the Bin Yue from an automotive enthusiast's perspective. It uses a 1.5T turbocharged engine, which offers quick low-speed response but average efficiency, especially in urban traffic where delayed turbo activation wastes fuel. With a body weight exceeding 1,200 kg and a high drag coefficient, fuel consumption naturally rises in mixed driving conditions. Driving habits also share the blame—sudden acceleration and braking consume more fuel. Road conditions play a big role too, with frequent stops at traffic lights being the most fuel-intensive. Running the AC too hard or carrying heavy loads also adds to the burden. Try switching to Eco mode and maintaining a steady speed; regularly changing the engine oil and filters can extend the car's lifespan and save money. If fuel consumption doesn’t improve, check for carbon buildup in the engine or visit a service center for diagnosis if necessary.

I have considerable experience in saving fuel with the Bin Yue. High fuel consumption may be related to driving habits. I usually focus on smooth throttle application and avoid sudden braking; in city traffic jams, I shift to neutral to coast; maintain tire pressure at the standard 2.5 bar, as lower pressure increases resistance; don’t set the air conditioning too low, as opening windows increases wind resistance and consumes more fuel. The SUV’s design inherently has a higher weight, and the engine is less efficient at low speeds. It’s advisable to plan routes to avoid congestion and control shift timing properly; ensure the fuel system is clean during each maintenance check, saving money and being eco-friendly.
