3 Answers
The Geely Jiayue 1.8T engine is a domestically produced four-cylinder engine manufactured by Geely, with the model number JLE-4G18TDC. Compared to the 1.5T three-cylinder engine, it alleviates some consumer concerns. In terms of parameters, it has a maximum power of 184 horsepower at 5500 rpm and a peak torque of 300 Nm at 1750-4000 rpm. Below is an introduction to the Geely Jiayue: 1. The Jiayue 1.8TD+6AT model has a maximum output power of 135 kW and a maximum torque of 300 N·m, achieving internationally leading levels in terms of power performance, fuel economy, and NVH performance. The gasoline version is equipped with a 1.8TD turbocharged engine paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission. 2. The Jiayue PHEV model features a 1.5TD+7DCTH plug-in hybrid system. With more efficient 7DCT transmission efficiency and P2.5 architecture, it intelligently selects the optimal engine speed and the best fuel-electric distribution ratio. Additionally, it is equipped with an RBS energy recovery system, making the vehicle's overall economy leading in its class. Paired with an 11.3 kW·h ultra-high-capacity ternary lithium battery, the vehicle achieves a maximum power of 190 kW and a maximum torque of 385 N·m, with a combined fuel consumption of just 1.6L per 100 km.
I've been driving the Jiaji for a while now, and I've always found its 1.5T three-cylinder engine quite practical. The three-cylinder design makes the car body significantly lighter, providing agile starts in daily city driving, and the fuel consumption is exceptionally well controlled, averaging 6-7 liters per 100 km in urban areas. Although the impression of three-cylinder engines being prone to vibration used to be strong, the Jiaji has added a balance shaft, making the ride smooth and free from buzzing noises even at high speeds. As an MPV, spaciousness is more important, and the compact engine size also allows for a more rational interior layout. I believe modern three-cylinder technology has matured, with vibrations being optimized, making it fully adequate for daily driving. For family trips, the low fuel consumption means savings that can be used to cover other expenses. Overall, the Jiaji with a three-cylinder engine is a pragmatic choice, suitable for users who prioritize economy and comfort.
As an ordinary car owner, I drive the Jiaji daily for commuting. Its 1.5T three-cylinder engine is truly worry-free to use. With an average fuel consumption of just over 6L/100km, it's both economical and eco-friendly - a full tank lasts a long time. The power is adequate for daily use, with smooth performance that handles city overtaking effortlessly, though engine noise becomes slightly noticeable when flooring the accelerator. The three-cylinder design means simpler structure - dealerships say parts are cheaper and easier to replace during maintenance, with lower failure rates too. Our family often takes road trips, and the spacious cabin remains comfortable with minimal engine vibration. The Jiaji's well-thought-out design benefits from the lighter three-cylinder engine weight, resulting in quicker acceleration response. After long-term use, I believe choosing this three-cylinder MPV was a smart decision - achieving fuel efficiency without compromising practicality.
