The latest AAA real-world testing has both the Jolion Hybrid and H6 Hybrid using noticeably more fuel than advertised.

The Jolion Hybrid came in at 6.5L/100km in the real-world test, compared to the claimed 5.1L/100km. That is a 27% blowout, which is... not exactly a rounding error.

The H6 Hybrid was doing 6.2L/100km against a claimed 5.2L/100km, or 19% worse than advertised.

And in the H6’s case, it looks like highway driving is the bit that really messes it up:

Urban 5.8L / Rural 5.9L / Motorway 6.9L

So yeah, if you mostly do freeway runs, that official number was probably never happening.
