How Many Cylinders Does the GAC Lingpai Engine Have?
2 Answers
GAC Lingpai's engine is designed with three cylinders, offering the following advantages: 1. Energy saving and emission reduction; 2. Compact size, saving space; 3. Reduced energy loss caused by mechanical friction. Taking the 2020 GAC Lingpai Rui as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4756mm, width 1804mm, height 1509mm, with a wheelbase of 2730mm, a trunk capacity of 588l, and a fuel tank capacity of 47l. The 2020 GAC Lingpai Rui is equipped with a 1.0t turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 122ps, a maximum power of 90kw, and a maximum power speed of 6000rpm.
I've been working in car repairs for almost twenty years and have handled many GAC Honda Lingpai engines. Most of these cars use a 4-cylinder engine with a 1.5-liter displacement, which delivers particularly smooth power output and doesn't shake when driving, making it quite suitable for daily family commuting. Occasionally, I come across the 3-cylinder turbocharged version with a 1.0-liter displacement. It's more fuel-efficient, with lower fuel consumption per 100 kilometers, but the vibration during acceleration is noticeable, affecting driving comfort. I recommend test-driving both versions when buying a new car. The 4-cylinder version is easier to maintain, requiring just routine maintenance like spark plugs and oil changes. In the long run, the 4-cylinder engine is more durable and avoids minor issues. Overall, most Lingpai drivers opt for the 4-cylinder version—it's worry-free and cost-effective.
