Why is the fuel consumption of the Binyue so high?
2 Answers
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.
