How Many Cylinders Does the GAC Lingpai Engine Have?

[SanGriffin]

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.

I drive a GAC Lingpai, which is the new model I bought last year. It's definitely powered by a 4-cylinder 1.5L engine, providing adequate power with quick throttle response. The fuel consumption is around 6L/100km in city traffic jams, and it's very stable on highways. My cousin has the 3-cylinder 1.0T version, and he says it's more fuel-efficient but the engine noise is louder, especially when unloaded. My 4-cylinder version has less noise, making driving very comfortable. The space is also spacious, making it convenient for carrying luggage and traveling with kids. Compared to other domestic cars, the Lingpai's engine has better reliability, and minor maintenance is simple and cost-effective. The only thing is to start it quickly during cold winter mornings.

I've tested quite a few cars. The mainstream engine of the GAC Lingpai is a 4-cylinder 1.5-liter, offering balanced performance and ample power. A few high-end models use a 3-cylinder 1.0-liter turbocharged engine, which is fuel-efficient but has slight vibrations at idle. The 4-cylinder version provides linear and stable acceleration at high speeds, making it suitable for daily commuting.
