Chinese car market is rapidly gaining momentum and increasing its advantage in the world arena. Geely is one of the most influential automotive companies in China. Thanks to the hard work of Geely engineers, they managed to partly destroy the very negative perception of Chinese products that had prevailed among buyers for a long time. So, the comfortable and stylish urban crossover Emgrand x7 was developed back in 2011, which was to compete with Japanese cars in the market.
A year later, Emgrand X7, due to its high-quality assembly and successful design, gained popularity not only in Asia, but also in the vastness of Europe. Many automotive experts attribute the unprecedented success of Geely Emgrand x7 due to the similarity with and the highest possible safety ratings. According to the CNCAP test, the crossover received the highest rating, which automatically elevated the model to the rank of the most reliable and safest. Chinese cars... It remains only to find out how much fuel consumption per 100 km is?
Official fuel consumption rate
In 2012, there were only two power units in the Geely Emgrand x7 line of power units - with a displacement of 2 and 2.4 liters. There was no fundamental difference between the two engines. The only difference was that the two-liter engine was paired with a five-speed mechanical box gear shifting, and its more voluminous analogue supported joint work with an automatic six-speed gearbox.
After the restyling of the model carried out by Geely in 2016, a new 1.8-liter power unit was added to the line of engines. Atmosfernik differs in power equal to 125 Horse power with a torque of 165 Nm. As for the transmission, the manufacturer decided to leave everything unchanged, equipping the restyled version with mechanics. The following standards of fuel consumption of a car per 100 km of track in the urban / suburban cycle were also certified:
- Engine 1.8 paired with mechanics - 10.5 / 8 l;
- Motor 2.0 paired with mechanics - 11 / 8.5 l;
- 2.4 engine paired with an automatic machine - 11.5 / 9 liters.
On the territory of the post-Soviet space, the car is available in two trim levels - basic and complete packages. Top-end equipment includes climate control, electric heated seats and many other options.
Geely Emgrand x7 consumption according to car owners reviews
All three motors comply with Euro 5 standards. Maximum speed the car reaches 190 km / h. In most cases, the owners of the crossover speak positively about this car, but there are also some complaints related to the small "gluttony" of the car. What real expense gasoline on Geely emgrand x7?
Gasoline engine with a volume of 1.8 liters
- Maxim, Volgograd. It just so happened that the first car in my life was a representative of the Chinese market. Initially, I was very disappointed, but after several thousand kilometers traveled I realized that all the excitement was in vain. I drive a Geely Emgrand x7 1.8 MT assembled at the Belji car plant in 2016. The car pleases with its comfort and a really high level of assembly. As for fuel consumption, there are no special complaints here - 10 liters in the city and 8 liters along the highway.
- Vasily, Moscow. A year ago I needed urgently normal car for a small price. On secondary market I did not find adequate proposals, I had to take the "Chinese". Geely Emgrand x7 2016 made me happy. When the need for a car passed, I did not want to part with it. As for a crossover with the makings of an SUV, it is quite normal "appetite" - 10.5 liters in the city in summer and up to 11 liters in winter.
- Evgeny, Saratov. I can't say that I am delighted with this car, but for the price it is a good enough product. I drive mainly on the highway, where the consumption is about 8 liters at an average speed of 120 km / h. In Saratov, in the warm season, up to 11 liters are fired.
- Andrey, Cheboksary. Moved to a crossover from the domestic Niva SUV. The difference is tangible, after all, Emgrand is a modern and comfortable car. There are some bugs in the cabin, but I don't think they should be given the proper attention. For its price - good car... In the city, it consumes 10 liters per 100 kilometers.
The 1.8-liter power unit delivers consistent fuel consumption. Car owners note that a crossover with this engine under the hood consumes exactly as much as the manufacturer assured.
Modification with motor 2.0
- Matvey, St. Petersburg. I took the car in 2012 for my parents living in the Moscow region. They don't have a country road there. good quality, so cars with low ground clearance had to be repaired frequently. With Geely Emgrand x7, many problems are gone. Nice car, there were no significant breakdowns yet. It copes with its task on the road of any condition. Consumption depends on driving style and operating conditions. On average 11.5-12 liters per 100 km.
- Alexander, Rostov. Behind the wheel of the Geely Emgrand x7 since 2014. The car will soon be four years old and, of course, the first malfunctions are now appearing: pads knock, shock absorbers make noise, and the like. At work, I have to wind hundreds of kilometers every day. On-board computer shows an average of 12 liters in Rostov, most often I go around the city.
- Anatoly, Yekaterinburg. I've been driving a Geely Emgrand x7 engine 2.0 since 2014. I can say with confidence - this car is reliable and unpretentious. Do not be afraid of Chinese products, they really collect there now cool cars... In two years I wound 100 thousand km on it, calculated that the real consumption of Emgrand x7 is 11 liters, as the manufacturer assured.
- Albert, Kursk. The car is comfortable, but not fast. The engine pulls normally, but power is sometimes not enough on the highway. The consumption outside the city is about 9-10 liters, it all depends on the quality of the track. The city is stable at 11 liters in summer and up to 12 liters in winter. There were no serious breakdowns, but even if there are, parts and components for the "Chinese" are relatively inexpensive.
This power unit is not very powerful, but it boasts an adequate level of fuel consumption. Most owners of the modification with a 2-liter engine under the hood speak well of the car and note the compliance of the certified and actual consumption.
Assembly with 2.4 engine
- Sergey, Moscow. Emgrand x7 with a 2.4-liter engine cost me almost a million. Comfortable and high-quality interior, plenty of free space and spacious luggage compartment... Of course, you won't find leather here, everything is made of a simple but durable material. It is quiet inside the car, extraneous noise is practically inaudible. Everything would be fine, but the "appetite" of the car does not make me happy - 14 liters in Moscow, and if you get stuck in a traffic jam, then all 15 liters.
- Leonid, Tyumen. I was looking for a car with four-wheel drive, dreamed about, but I did not manage to accumulate the necessary amount. A friend advised me to take the Geely Emgrand x7 for a reasonable price. In the end, I can say that I liked the car, it has everything I need. Consumption is sometimes higher than normal - 12.5 liters in the city and 9 liters on the highway, but this happens in rare cases.
- Stanislav, Sochi. I have heard a lot about Chinese cars, about the fact that today "celestial" is reaching a new level. When I saw the price of Emgrand x7, at first I thought it was a "tempting". But he made up his mind and bought it. I can't say it's a great car, but not a bad one either. If finances are back to back, but you want something comfortable, modern - go to dealership... If you have a substantial amount on hand, then, of course, it is better to take the "Japanese". Consumption - 13/10 liters per 100 km.
- Konstantin, Krasnodar. Although they say that the "Chinese" are reaching a new level, they are still far from Japanese cars. On Emgrand x7, the engine seems to be quite good, but you cannot get out of the snowdrifts. In severe frost with open hood hoses on the washer may crack. There are too many such little things. As for the chassis and motor - had to be replaced two years later rear levers... There were no problems with the engine. It consumes 12-13 liters, which is significantly higher than the norm.
Behind the given power unit in some cases, excessive consumption of fuel has been noticed. A car with a 2.4-liter engine can surpass the mark certified by the manufacturer by as much as 1-2 liters.
Geely Emgrand X7 is a five-seat crossover from the Chinese automaker Geely. The car debuted in 2011 in Guangzhou city. This model very popular in Russia and Ukraine, in other countries it is produced under a different name. For 4 years of production, the car has not received any external changes. The model started with a 1.8-liter gasoline engine, and in 2013 versions with 2.0 and 2.4-liter units appeared.

Real fuel consumption
- Peter, Moscow. I bought a car for my parents. They often go to the dacha, so they needed a roomy, but inexpensive option. I thought it would be better to buy an Emgrand X7 from the salon than an already worn out solid foreign car. I myself often travel with them and with my family, so I also drive Geely. The car is normal, comfortable and functional. So far there have been no problems. Fuel consumption on the highway - 7 liters, the city is about 11. Build 2013, 2.0 MT.
- Alexander, Voronezh. Geely Emgrand X7 2.0 MT 2012. I bought a car from a dealer. I've been driving for a year and a half, so I can safely assess it. Since it is often behind the wheel, so the car is already starting to junk, the pads are knocking, a dull noise of the front shock absorbers has appeared. I haven't changed anything yet, and I'm not going to. Fuel consumption in the city is 10.8 liters, on the highway - 6-7 liters. I drive up to 300 km a day.
- Sergey, Novosibirsk. I was looking for a car for a long time, a crossover with four-wheel drive, but since my earnings did not allow me to purchase the desired Nissan qashqai, in the end I bought a Geely Emgrand X7 2.4 automatic transmission in 2014. The car was pleasantly pleased with its comfort. Fuel consumption per 100 km averages 11 liters, in winter up to 13 liters. The car has everything that is necessary for me personally: an air conditioner, a radio tape recorder.
- Andrey, Omsk. I recently bought Geely Emgrand X7 2.4 AT. The only conditions for the choice were: a new car and a price of up to 800 thousand rubles, since with the current jump in currencies, everything has become too expensive. So I bought a new Chinese in 2015. While still running in, fuel consumption in the city is about 15 liters. On the highway - 9 liters. I haven’t changed anything yet, I haven’t repaired anything, everything is fine, let's see what happens in a year. The main disadvantage is huge expense gasoline and the smell of glue in the cabin.
- Nikolay, Monchegorsk. Geely Emgrand X7 is my first car, a gift for 20 years. Before that I rode my parents' cars. Well, I'll tell you a secret - the car is just awful. Two-liter motor does not match its power at all, acceleration is a nightmare, braking distance is even worse. Average fuel consumption is 9 liters. The interior trim is cheap and of poor quality. Better to overpay a little and buy something better. 2013 model.
- Ivan, Nizhny Novgorod. He needed an inexpensive working car, and he had been eyeing Geely for a long time, naturally because of the price. Moreover, there is a crisis in the country. Here I bought a Geely Emgrand X7 1.8 MT 2011. As a result, I admit that there is no car, you just can't find anything decent in this class for this money, and it's not a pity to beat. Average fuel consumption for an SUV, city - 10-11 liters, highway - 6-7 liters.
- Oleg, Moscow. I work as a taxi driver and therefore have long wanted a more roomy car, as I had driven a Priore before. Of course, it makes no sense to buy an expensive car for transportation, so I immediately decided to take a brand new Chinese. That's how I bought a Geely Emgrand 2.0 MT in 2012. A brand new car, everything is well thought out, a quiet interior, and both me and the clients feel comfortable. Fuel consumption in the city never exceeded 13 liters, highway 7-8 liters.
- Victor, Ryazan. Geely Emgrand X7 2014 2.4 AT. I was attracted to Emgrand low price and decent equipment. In principle, the car is not bad, nothing has flown in a year, and there are no hints of this yet. Fuel consumption is quite adequate: city - 14 liters, average consumption - 11 liters. Given the size of the engine, this is normal.
- Valery, Kazan. I took an Emgrand X7 with a 2.0 MT engine in 2012, since I don't need it anymore for the city. The SUV is roomy and economical. Before that there was a Niva, so the consumption is almost imperceptible - up to 10 liters are burned in the city. The cabin is comfortable and there are no smells of cheap material or glue, as I read in many reviews.
- Artem, Yekaterinburg. So I turned 18 and had to make a choice about which car I would drive. Since there was not much of my own money, I decided to buy a Chinese from the salon. This is how I got my Geely Emgrand X7 1.8 MT (assembly of 2012). The parents have a RAV4, so it's customary to drive an SUV. Fuel consumption is low, in the combined cycle the output is in the region of 8-9 liters. The salon is interesting, the car looks nice too, as the first car - an excellent unit.
The emergence of this strategic model was preceded by a three-year work of the Geely research center in collaboration with world famous companies, and the main components in the Emgrand EC-7 are from renowned brands such as Bosch, Valeo, Siemens, Fuji, Delphi, which are used by world famous automotive brands.
A 1.8-liter engine is installed under the hood of the car. Gas engine with a capacity of 127 hp, which is aggregated with a 5-speed manual transmission or "automatic". The sedan will also be pleased with its relatively low fuel consumption for its class - only 7.5 l / 100 km in the combined cycle.
Due to its solid dimensions (namely: 4630 - length, 1780 - width, 1470 - height and 2650 - wheelbase), new model got comfortable, very spacious salon and a fairly roomy luggage compartment (680 liters). In addition, the boot has a low loading height and the remote opening function simplifies the loading process.
Geely Emgrand EC7 will be offered in two trim levels - basic and comfortable. Already in basic configuration the car is equipped with power windows for all doors, electrically adjustable mirrors, central locking, air conditioning, power steering, ABS + EBD, heating rear window, fog lights, CD + MP3 player with audio system. Comfortable equipment will be supplemented with leather steering wheel, 6 airbags, electrically adjustable driver's seat, sunroof, and soft plastic and leather everywhere in the cabin.
The car has a high degree of safety - 4 stars of the solid European safety rating EuroNCAP, which is the highest mark in the history of the participation of Chinese cars in the tests.
Good afternoon.
For the first time I decided to write a review about the car, tk. the car is well-known, arouses interest, but there are not enough objective reviews. Basically, you can hear "rotting shamelessly", "it is better to take a 30-year-old Japanese man", "spare parts fall off while standing," or "yes, a cool car", "better than our prior", etc.
Not much about myself: until 2015, an ordinary manager, sold vacuum cleaners for 150t.r., tinkoff cards and other crap. Then he switched to cargo transportation, in which he worked until 2015, after he became deputy general director at the well-known recreation center in Tyumen.
About the cars that were:
1. The first, she is the brightest in memories - a 2004 Chevrolet Niva, got at the age of 2 years, with a mileage of about 60 tons, from her father, who from the first day did not spare her much, did not spoil her, but did not launched. Having bought herself a new Nissan, Shniva went to me, and in addition to my trips around the city, to study, with the girls to nature, the two of them went hunting, where even I did not spare her. The car went to wear and tear, in 2011. year sold with mileage, do not lie, 200t.km. it was exactly. Problems up to 90t.km. it was not with her, then it started on the little things. Fortunately, then there were already incomes, he drove to his master, shook the suspension, replaced the chain in the engine and up to 200t.km. went and changed only consumables, pads and candles. Sometimes I topped up the washer.
2. In 2011, I sold Shnivy, and decided to try myself on a passenger sedan, because there was no more time to travel out of town. Acquired in Tyumen new ford Focus 2, 1.6 manual transmission. The car is good, but after driving for a year, having rolled 55t.km. got into a bad accident. I restored the car, but I didn't want to go. I put it up for sale, but that's another story. 7 months not for sale, in the end it turned out in 2013. year to change to a Semi-year-old Chevrolet Niva with mileage 14t.km.
3. As you understood - 2013 Chevrolet Niva. everything rolled perfectly up to 150t.km. with minor breakdowns.
4. It was necessary to urgently sell the Niva and bought it, practically on purpose, I thought for a month or two FF2 2008g.v. which rode until recently and sold.
The question arose about buying only a New car, in the sedan body up to 500-600t.r. I didn't like anything imported, Solaris - A mixture of priors with nexia, Priora - a dozen in a beautiful wrapper, Grant - outside pretty, not very inside. Vesta is good, but raw and expensive. All sorts of logans and so on - I just did not consider it. I was already thinking about taking the 3rd focus of a 2-year-old, but I didn't want to use it. Already tuned in to Grant, the best thing that fit the parameters, but I really wanted to take the car so that people from behind would not rest against my seat. I remembered that in the 13th year I had a chance to ride a Geely Emgrand. I decided to go to the salon and immediately realized HERE He is. The car that I need. Cute appearance, silhouettes of famous brands are guessed. The cabin is spacious, comfortable, plenty of space, it doesn't look boring. The trunk is spacious. In the end, I took it. 2 days for pre-sale preparation, from special stages only metal protection of the crankcase.
Complete set Basic, Conder, ABS, speakers without a radio, heated front seats, all electric lifts, PTF, DRL, standard signaling.
Now about the car itself:
Salon for 4+. Everything is not clearly adjusted, there is not enough steering wheel adjustment for reach. But in general he sat down well with a height of 185. At first it was not customary that he was reaching for the steering wheel, now he was used to it. Visibility is normal, there are enough mirrors for viewing from behind. There is enough space for 4 people. The trunk is huge, but it's not convenient to load.
Engine: 4-row 1.8 manual transmission - no complaints. Works great when paired with a box. Initial consumption was about 8-9, now 6-7, at a speed of 130-140 on the highway.
Suspension: ambiguous. like soft, like not. the rear beam is superfluous, they could make an independent one. Behavior - it resembles FF2, it enters corners perfectly, does not roll, does not swing. up to 160 - it goes smoothly, after that it starts to scour.
As for the comfort - the insulation for this price is space. Like a Bentley, I guess. I went to Tyumen-Omsk-Tyumen, my back never hurt. As if he hit the road to the village.
In general, for this money, the car is beautiful, the best, if not for a few BUT:
1. The paint is very thin, in the first week two chips appeared on the hood. I still don’t paint, there is no rust.
2. Assembly - tear off your hands, the gaps on the sides are different. I will butt in Office Dealer to exhibit.
3. All sorts of little things, such as a loose elastic band, or a broken seam on the visor - all the same spoil the impression of a car. First you sit down, you think that you are in an expensive foreign car, when you look closely, you can see that China is assembled in Russia.
4. Incomprehensible hook in the front, which you constantly hit on the curbs.
5. At the very first, MOT did not leave the repairmen until they made the gears turn on clearly. Everyone assured that the rug was thick, everyone had it.
In general, I am very pleased with the car, it will definitely be enough for three years. For this money, it is better to take it than ours or Logan / Solaris.
I'll post the photo later.
Fuel consumption is one of the main issues when buying any car. Chinese Geely Emgrand x7 tries to keep fuel consumption within more or less realistic limits, so as not to displease the owners.
Engine options
For all Geely Emgrand x7, the manufacturer puts engines on 16 valves. The volume can vary:
- 1.8 L - 127 HP
- 2 L - 139 HP
- 2.4 L - 158 HP
There is a system that changes the phases of the fuel distribution, therefore, power characteristics and gasoline economy are successfully combined. The gearbox can be either manual or 6-speed automatic. Front-wheel drive, unfortunately, is present in all models without the addition of the rear.
Passport fuel consumption
On Geely Emgrand x7, the fuel consumption indicated in her passport depends entirely on the volume of the engine and its power. With a 1.8 liter engine, the mixed is 8.4 liters per 100 km. On the highway, it drops to 8 liters, and in the city it rises to 9 liters.
If there is a two-liter, then the mixed consumption rises to 8.8 liters, highway - 8.2 liters, urban - 9.2 liters.
With a 2.4-liter engine, you will have at least 8.6 liters on the highway, 9 liters on a mixed route and 9.6 liters on city roads.
According to the owners
As you know, passport and technical characteristics are one thing, but facts are quite another. Often, car owners complain that the excessive consumption of gasoline turns out to be significant in comparison with the agreed manufacturer. However, in the case of Geely Emgrand x7, the owners' reviews are so far unanimous: the real expense not only corresponds to the specified, but in some cases turns out to be even slightly lower than the specified one.
How to avoid high fuel consumption
Since overruns are common, drivers are constantly looking for ways to reduce overruns as much as possible. In this case, there are some simple tips.
All reasons can be roughly divided into subjective and objective types. The objective is the failure of any units or parts that are no longer capable of performing their functions.
But the subjective ones include those that are easy to minimize. Many drivers of Geely Emgrand x7 do not pay attention to such trifles, but increase consumption:
- Air conditioner operating at full power - 15%
- Lowered glass when driving over 50 km / h - 4%
- Moving with headlights on - 5%
- Driving with an engine that has not yet warmed up - 12%
- Tire pressure below normal and wide rims - 4%
- Overload of the car for every 100 kg of weight - 10%, etc.
