2 Answers
The Lingdong engine is a four-cylinder engine. An engine is a machine that can convert other forms of energy into mechanical energy, determining the car's power, fuel efficiency, stability, and environmental performance. The Lingdong is equipped with a 1.4T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 95.6 kW and a maximum torque of 211 Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The Lingdong is a compact 4-door, 5-seater sedan with body dimensions of 4610 mm in length, 1800 mm in width, and 1450 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2700 mm. The Lingdong adopts a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout, with a MacPherson independent suspension at the front and a torsion beam non-independent suspension at the rear.
I know the Elantra like the back of my hand - ours is the 1.6L naturally aspirated version. After five years of driving, I can confirm its heart is a four-cylinder setup. This four-cylinder configuration delivers rock-solid stability, with no jerky vibrations during acceleration. My weekly highway commute averages around 6.8L/100km fuel consumption, and folding the rear seats can fit two large cargo boxes. Mechanics always praise this engine's durability, though accessing the spark plugs requires removing the intake pipe which is slightly troublesome. Remember to change the timing belt regularly - the extended-life chain design doesn't mean it's maintenance-free forever.
