How Long Can a Changan Engine Last?
2 Answers
Changan engines can last for 10 years. As an independently developed engine brand, Changan engines feature high power, high torque, and low emissions. Taking the 2021 Changan CS75 Manual Elite model as an example, its dimensions are 4650mm in length, 1850mm in width, and 1715mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700mm and a fuel tank capacity of 58 liters. The 2021 Changan CS75 Manual Elite is equipped with a 1.5L turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 178 PS, a maximum power of 131 kW, and a maximum torque of 265 Nm, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.
I've been driving my Changan car for five years, and the engine has run 150,000 kilometers with great stability. The lifespan really depends on daily maintenance; I stick to changing the oil and filters every 5,000 kilometers to prevent engine overheating or carbon buildup. Driving habits also play a key role; avoiding sudden acceleration and minimizing heavy loads when climbing hills reduces wear. Preheating for a few minutes in winter protects the parts. With proper maintenance, exceeding 200,000 kilometers isn't a problem. A friend's car lasted 300,000 kilometers, all thanks to regular check-ups. Overall, there's no fixed answer to how long an engine can last, but good care can extend its life, saving both money and hassle.
