How is the engine and transmission of the Geely Xingyue L?
2 Answers
Geely Xingyue L's engine and transmission are equipped with Volvo's Drive-E series engines. High and low power versions: There are two versions of the 2.0T engine with high and low power outputs, with maximum power of 218 horsepower and 238 horsepower respectively, and peak torque of 325 Nm and 350 Nm respectively. Chassis: The Xingyue L adopts front MacPherson and rear multi-link independent suspension, and is equipped with BorgWarner's sixth-generation four-wheel drive system. Transmission: The Xingyue L Thunder God Hi.X hybrid version is equipped with a 3-speed electric drive transmission DHT Pro, which can be regarded as an intelligent energy control hub. It has the intelligent regulation capability of DHT Pro's 3-speed large speed ratio range, allowing the engine and motor to always operate in the high-efficiency range, effectively reducing fuel consumption.
I've driven the Xingyue L for a while, and its engine is Geely's in-house 2.0T with Volvo technology support, which indeed delivers stable performance. The low-power version with 218 horsepower is sufficient for daily use, while the high-power 238-horsepower version with four-wheel drive doesn't falter even on mountain roads. The transmission comes in two options: a 7-speed dual-clutch and an Aisin 8AT. In city traffic, the dual-clutch occasionally jerks at low gears, but the 8AT version is as smooth as Dove chocolate. My friend's car has run 30,000 kilometers without even changing the transmission fluid, just regular maintenance. As for fuel consumption, it's around 10L/100km in the city and can drop to 7L/100km on highways. The 55-liter fuel tank can last nearly half a month for commuting when full. For its price range, the three major components are quite良心 (conscientious), more generous than some joint-venture cars.
