How many cylinders does the Changan CX20 engine have?
2 Answers
The Changan CX20 is equipped with a 4-cylinder engine. An engine is a machine that converts one form of energy into another, typically transforming chemical energy into mechanical energy. The Changan CX20 has the following dimensions: length 3970mm, width 1730mm, height 1615mm, with a wheelbase of 2450mm and a fuel tank capacity of 41 liters. It is powered by a 1.4L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum power of 74 kW and a maximum torque of 131 Nm. The engine is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. The front suspension is of the MacPherson strut independent type, while the rear suspension features a torsion beam non-independent setup.
I remember the Changan CX20 usually comes with a 4-cylinder engine, like its common 1.4L or 1.3L models. As an average user who has driven for several years, this configuration is quite practical for city driving—enough power without wasting fuel, with an average fuel consumption of around 7L per 100km. I once tried a friend’s CX20, and it drove smoothly, without the noticeable vibrations of some 3-cylinder cars, nor too much noise during acceleration. Of course, if it’s an older model, I’d recommend checking the vehicle manual or visiting a 4S shop for an inspection to ensure no parts have been replaced. Overall, the 4-cylinder design is quite common in economy cars, with low maintenance costs, and mechanics at repair shops also say the engine structure is simple and less prone to major issues. I’ve experienced minor delays during cold starts in winter, but regular oil changes can solve that. When buying a used car, be careful to avoid non-original engines that have been modified.
