2 Answers
The Baojun 310 engine can run 300,000 kilometers. Taking the 2020 Baojun 310 as an example, it belongs to the small car category, with body dimensions of: length 4032mm, width 1680mm, height 1450mm, a wheelbase of 2550mm, a fuel tank capacity of 30l, and a curb weight of 985kg. The 2020 Baojun 310 features a MacPherson strut independent front suspension and a torsion beam non-independent rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.2l naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 80ps, a maximum power of 59kw, and a maximum torque of 112nm, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
As someone who has driven for decades and experienced all kinds of vehicles, I can say the Baojun 310's 1.2L engine is a quite reliable configuration. Its factory-designed lifespan typically ranges between 200,000 to 300,000 kilometers, provided regular maintenance is followed. For instance, changing the oil and filter every 5,000 kilometers, inspecting the cooling system and belts to prevent overheating or premature wear. I've seen many older cars still running strong at 150,000 kilometers – the key lies in driving habits: avoid aggressive acceleration, prolonged idling, and use quality gasoline. These practices can easily help the engine surpass 250,000 kilometers. If you notice unusual noises or sluggish acceleration on the road, promptly check spark plugs and sensors, as accumulated minor issues can shorten its lifespan. Regular professional inspections enable early problem detection, allowing the engine to accompany you on longer journeys.
