When the second-generation GS8 was first released in October last year, I once took a Trumpchi second-generation GS8 dual engine version of the engineering vehicle to do fuel consumption test, and in that more casual driving, the long-distance fuel consumption of trumpchi's second-generation GS8 was measured at 6.57L/100km and the weekend outing was 5.68L/100km, and the overall performance was still quite ideal.
However, there was no rush hour in the last test, and many consumers who held the coin on the sidelines also wanted to know how the fuel consumption of Trumpchi's second-generation GS8 hybrid version performed in daily commuting.
So, I'm going to test it again!
In terms of test vehicles, I got the second-generation GS8 dual-engine four-wheel drive premium version, and the guidance price was 246,800 yuan.
In terms of power, the second-generation Trumpchi GS8 is equipped with a 2.0TM engine and a hybrid system composed of Toyota THS hybrid, with a maximum engine power of 140kW and a maximum torque of 300Nm. The front and rear motors have a maximum power of 134 kW and 40 kW, respectively.
On this trip, I chose to depart from the Tianhe Software Park, which has the largest number of people working across the city and the largest traffic flow in Guangzhou, through urban road conditions, expressways and highways, as far as possible to restore the "cross-city migratory birds" one-day commute, the whole journey is about 120 kilometers.
Fill the car with oil before departure, and to ensure the accuracy of the test, the oil is added to the visible level.
The congestion section is 12.7km long, with an average speed of 24km/h, and the average fuel consumption at this time is 6.7L/100km.
Driving in congested sections, the hybrid system shows excellent smoothness, the power output is quite heeled, and there is no intrusion caused discomfort in the stop-and-go road conditions.
The urban expressway section is 36km long, with an average speed of 58km/h, and the average fuel consumption is 6L/100km.
The highway section is 60km long, with an average speed of 60km/h, and the average fuel consumption is 5.4L/100km.
In the high-speed and urban expressway, Trumpchi's second-generation GS8 hybrid system can provide a very good acceleration response, thanks to the instantaneous acceleration assistance of the front and rear motors, as long as you step on the throttle, the power can keep up, and the acceleration process can give me a good feeling of pushing back.
And even if the speed is 100km/h, as long as you step on the accelerator, you can still feel that the vehicle has sufficient power reserves, and you can still keep up with the driver's acceleration intentions.
The last section is an urban expressway with a mileage of 6km and an average speed of 24km/h, at which point the fuel consumption is 5.3L/100km.
After reaching the end point, the oil is added to the visible liquid level again, and the total fuel consumption is 4.78L after the whole journey, combined with the total mileage of 114.7 kilometers, the comprehensive fuel consumption is 4.17L/100km, and the fuel price at the time of final refueling is 6.85 yuan / L, which is equivalent to 2 cents per kilometer of fuel cost of 2 cents 8.
Write at the end
The challenge of peak driving, with 2 and a half hours to simulate the daily commuting time and distance of urban migratory birds, and finally measured the fuel consumption of Trumpchi's second-generation GS8 at 4.17L/100km, less than 3 mao a kilometer of fuel costs can save consumers a lot of daily expenses, but also reduce the number of times to go to gas stations, you can rest assured that it can drive it to commute to work.
From the two different hybrid versions of the two fuel consumption tests (two-wheel drive and electric four-wheel drive), Trumpchi's second-generation GS8 fuel consumption and driving texture are certainly not to worry about, no matter how such a large car is driven, fuel consumption is at a low level.
However, if you look at it from the driving experience, the acceleration response of the dual-engine four-wheel drive version will be cooler and faster than the two-wheel drive version, so if you like the second-generation GS8 dual-engine version, the budget is relatively sufficient, I still recommend the dual-engine four-wheel drive version.
