SUV is never efficient. Period

Yes. Friend got one and the FC is really horrible. But its not surprise for its weight.

Basically its like a PHEV XC90 without battery juice, full tank can only go for around 250-280km for a 68L tank.

want conti feel, so u get conti FC

got proper x70 thread dont want ask there

purposely want open thread in /k to kena troll

kek

It's normal, abit on the high side. City drive should be around 10L/100KM. If heavy traffic crawl lots of stop and go then 11L/100KM. SUVs are heavy and not as aerodynamic as sedans so naturally they have higher FC. Does the x70 has auto stop/start? That may save some fuel but not by much.

Can afford 130k cannot afford fuel? Try bicycle then?

my car 60l, city (penang) full tank can drive 180-200km only
KL Full tank can drive 280-300.
Highway i can reach 400-430 pertank .....

1.8 tons SUV... Can't compare with sedans

giler bawa suv expectation minyak nak save macam bawa axia, kalau dah mampu beli x70 why need to brag about fuel consumption pakai jelah

Myvi 2019 Ron 97 RM50 full tank, 512KM +-

one month RM200 , for daily city drive

Deswai jgn xpasal2 go and buy a SUV just because it is big and tall.

For long journeys yes it is comfortable, but for town driving there are simply better options that are not just more economical but also easier to drive.

No auto start/stop.

But there's a Eco mode, but only worth if traveling on highway. Tbe Eco mode is not suitable for city heavy use. FC is more than a Normal mode.

👍

pump tyre pressure higher la, wira 1.5A VDO can go 500+km per tank with tyre pressure 35psi

TS was asking bout X70 FC, not a comparison to others car.

X70 is quite bad on FC , this is the fact ... even u do how many services .. the improvement is not much ... the upcoming X70 CKD version with 1.5tebu + DCT gearbox maybe can improve the FC significantly

Those that did not do their due diligence rants about X70 FC, instead of enjoying the other features and comfort.

It's a SUV, not a sedan
It's 1.7 ton SUV, not 1.3 ton B segment sedan
It's a 1.8 turbo, not 1.5 NA (heck, the VW EA888 that they copied isn't well known to be fuel efficient in the first place).
The 6 speed gearbox is only 80+% efficient (the weakest link throughout the drive train)
Driving in city stop-go traffic didn't help, the energy required to achieve momentum for a 1.7 ton SUV isn't fuel friendly.

Btw, the new Boyue Pro in China has the new 7DSG mated to the same 1.8L turbo (partly to meet China Euro6 standard) & fuel savings is only 1 litre per 100km (even though this 7DSG is claimed to have 97% efficiency).

First 1000km it drinks fuel. After 1000km service, slighty better.

In fuelly.com, it's like 8-10km/l but only with a population of 5 cars

Few things to take into consideration:
1. New car consumes more fuel, need to go for a few services before it is stabilized
2. Driving short distances where you need to turn on and off the car increases fuel consumption
3. Driving in heavy traffic or full city increases fuel consumption
4. Under-pressured tyres increases drag and fuel consumption
5. Having significantly more load (weight) in the car increases fuel consumption

That being said, how much is your monthly petrol expense?

Well said...just adding...check on your odo display panel, whats your average driving speed J_Shen

That should give an indicator the amount you are driving similar to city speed
