Hey car enthusiasts, does the range on this car not match the actual driving distance? The difference is huge! I'm even afraid to wait until the fuel light comes on before refueling. It shows more than 100 km left, but it's already asking me to refuel.

Are you asking if the fuel consumption of the Haval H6 is high? My car's fuel consumption is quite high right now. It takes about 20 liters per 100 km when starting and turning. I've already spent 700 yuan on fuel in less than a month. [Crying]
How do you guys manage to get 6 or 7 liters per 100 km? I filled up until the pump clicked off, drove 140 km, and already lost one bar of fuel. It's consuming more than 10 liters per 100 km 😭😭😭
Hey folks, how long did you wait before hitting the highway? I've actually been driving for less than two months, or maybe two years. The car's been sitting back home and I'm worried it'll just go bad. Any advice from those with experience? Much appreciated 🙏🙏🙏
4I always charge when my battery is between 10-20%. I see many people start charging at 30%. Does charging at 30% really help protect the battery better? And do you guys wait until it’s 100% full before unplugging?
5I'm considering buying a used diesel Grand Cherokee with a budget of around 150,000. My budget is limited, and as a working-class individual, I'm considering diesel for its fuel efficiency. I'm currently driving a 2.0T Mondeo, and the fuel consumption for commuting is 11 liters per 100 km. My concern is that some people say diesel engines are unstable and have high maintenance costs later on. My driving scenario is mainly commuting to work, with a daily round trip of 20 km. I’m also thinking about long-distance travel with my family during holidays. I’d love to hear from actual owners about their experiences and what I should pay attention to when making a choice. Thank you very much.
6I'm here to help! To adjust the maintenance reminder on your car's dashboard to match the actual mileage, you usually need to reset or update the maintenance settings. Here’s a general approach: 1. **Check the Owner's Manual**: Look for instructions specific to your car model regarding how to reset the maintenance reminder. 2. **Use the Trip Button**: In many cars, you can use the trip button on the dashboard. Press and hold it while the car is in the "On" position (but not running) until the maintenance light blinks or resets. 3. **Consult the Service Menu**: Some vehicles have a service menu accessible via the infotainment system where you can update maintenance intervals. 4. **Visit a Service Center**: If you're unsure, it's best to visit a service center or dealership. They can use diagnostic tools to reset the reminder accurately. Remember that the steps can vary depending on your car brand and model.
7Has anyone here modified their car or changed tires? My left front tire got a nail in it and can't be repaired. I've been asking around but can't find a Toyo 225 55 R19 tire, and with the national holiday, I can't replace it until the 4th. It's really inconvenient. Has anyone switched to other tire brands after buying their car? Any recommendations? I'm hesitant to replace just one tire with a different brand, and since I need the car urgently, I'm considering replacing both front tires.
8Since I got the car, I’ve driven it a few times on intercity highways and elevated city roads. At first, fuel consumption was quite high — around 12 L/100 km — but after some regular use, it dropped to 7.8. It hasn’t gone any lower since then, even though I’ve only driven about 500 km in less than a month. Honestly, every time I refuel, it stings a little 😅. This is my first car, so I don’t have much to compare it to, but driving feels smooth overall. Once you hit 100 km/h, tire noise becomes noticeable, but throttle response during overtaking is pretty decent. The thing that annoyed me most is the infotainment system. There’s no built-in CarPlay, so I bought an external adapter. While it technically works, Bluetooth is unstable, and the navigation voice won’t come through the car speakers. On top of that, the system randomly activates and starts saying weird things, and the voice assistant sometimes greets you with “Hi” and other times with “I’m here” — honestly, it feels awkward. I’m not sure if all Japanese brands do this, or just this one. As for interior space, the rear seat area is quite good, but the new car smell is still strong, so I’ve thrown in a bunch of charcoal bags to absorb it. Overall, I’m satisfied for a first car, but there are definitely things that could be better.
9I bought the 2025 Passat 380 Star Edition, and since we already have a 2024 330 Elite model at home, I was able to directly compare the two. The main differences come down to a few added features — like extra millimeter-wave radars, one additional camera, and three more ultrasonic sensors. Most of the other specs are nearly identical. The biggest improvement I noticed is in the adaptive cruise control, which is now more responsive and accurate. The rear parking sensors also trigger more easily. Fuel consumption is actually quite good: on highways and elevated roads, it averages around 7.1 L/100 km — nearly the same as the 330 (which ranges between 6.8 to 7.2 L). As for space, it's one of the main reasons I chose this car. We’ve got kids in the family, and this car is mainly for weekend outings and family use. Compared to the Magotan, the Passat offers better ride comfort, and its 2.87m wheelbase ensures a roomy interior. Feature-wise, the Passat covers everything needed for daily use: side mirrors that tilt automatically when reversing, ventilated and heated seats, auto hold, adaptive cruise, and active braking. It’s all there and makes daily driving much more convenient. Now for the downsides: the infotainment system feels outdated. The screen is too small, there's no built-in navigation worth using, and no wireless phone connectivity, which is a letdown in 2025. Also, there’s still a bit of jerkiness at low speeds that hasn’t been addressed. The gear shifter is still wrapped in leather but looks pretty basic. Overall, at this price point, the Passat is still a solid choice. It doesn’t have any major flaws, and it’s a good all-around car — perfect for someone who wants a reliable, practical ride without too much fuss or flash. Not the flashiest design, but definitely a sensible and balanced option.
10Honestly, I really liked the car’s exterior and interior design. We have to admit that German engineering is truly top-notch—especially when it comes from established brands like Mercedes. Positives: On the highway, the car is incredibly stable. Sometimes I find myself going 140 km/h without even realizing it—it's a huge difference from my old car (which was an Accord). This time I ordered it with the "Burmester" sound system, and the audio clarity—especially for vocals—is amazing. The exterior design grabs attention—it has presence. And the interior ambient lighting at night creates an incredible vibe. The infotainment system is very fast; navigation through menus is smooth and seamless. Fuel consumption is low—when driving in ECO mode, it goes below 7 liters per 100 km, which is excellent for a car of this class. Negatives: The driver’s seat is a bit tight. At low speeds, there's some hesitation or jerkiness in the gearbox. It’s not annoying, but you do notice it. The standard features are very weak—Mercedes really makes you pay extra for everything: seat heating? Extra. Keyless entry? Extra. In-car fragrance? Also extra! And the strangest part is that a car at this price point doesn’t even come with a power tailgate! Plus, if you don’t choose the optional extras, they tell you “no ready cars, you’ll have to wait”—especially toward the end of the year.
