Lingdong is equipped with a three-cylinder engine. In terms of power, the new Lingdong comes with a 1.4T and a 1.6L engine. The 1.4T turbocharged engine delivers a maximum power of 128 horsepower and a peak torque of 211 Nm, paired with a dual-clutch transmission. The 1.6L engine offers a maximum power of 95 horsepower and a peak torque of 157 Nm, matched with a 6-speed automatic transmission. Lingdong is positioned as a compact car, with body dimensions of 4610mm in length, 1800mm in width, and 1450mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2700mm.
As an average car owner, I've been driving the Elantra for several years, and its engine is indeed a four-cylinder, whether it's the 1.6L naturally aspirated or the 1.4T turbocharged version—the basic configuration remains the same. When I was choosing a car, I compared it with other models, like some Japanese cars with three-cylinder engines that had noticeably more vibration. But the Elantra's four-cylinder design is very smooth; you hardly feel any shaking in city traffic jams, and it accelerates steadily on the highway. Hyundai has done a good job in this regard, balancing power and fuel efficiency. My daily commute fuel consumption is around 6.5L/100km. While some people pursue V6 performance cars, a four-cylinder is more than enough for regular family use, and the maintenance costs are lower—oil changes and spark plug replacements aren't expensive. Overall, it's suitable for daily driving—reliable and straightforward.
