How much does the old Chang'an Star 2nd generation weigh?

[LeAshley]

Body weight is 990 kg. The following is extended content: 1. The Chang'an Star is relatively well-equipped, with standard features like airbags and ABS system that are usually absent in microvans. 2. The Chang'an Star SC6371 is equipped with a 1.3-liter JL474Q engine, which is an inline 4-cylinder, overhead camshaft, 16-valve engine with a maximum power output of 60Kw. Its power delivery is smooth, acceleration is quick, giving a sense of abundant power. 3. The Chang'an Star SC6371 has power steering, and its handling is outstanding among microvans. 4. Advantages: The exterior is steady and imposing; spacious, suitable for both passengers and cargo, with good visibility. 5. Disadvantages: The interior materials and craftsmanship are relatively rough, with a strong plastic feel; power output performance.

I've driven the older model of the Changan Star 2 for several years, and its weight is around 1,200 kilograms, which is neither too heavy nor too light. It runs quite steadily in the city, especially when carrying some cargo—it doesn't sway easily. However, the fuel consumption is a bit higher than that of a sedan, with a difference of about 2-3 liters per 100 kilometers. When driving, I make sure to regularly check the tires and suspension since heavier vehicles wear out faster. This car is suitable for daily family use or transporting small items, and it's reliable in terms of safety. The chassis performs well during turns, minimizing body roll. When buying a used one, check the maintenance records—weight doesn't affect repairs much, but it's best to have a professional shop inspect the chassis strength for safety. Overall, the weight balances practicality and handling, making it comfortable for long drives.

I've been driving for decades and have come across many older models of the Changan Star 2. Their weight is generally around 1.2 tons, which is just right for a microvan—too light and it can be unstable on the road, too heavy and it guzzles fuel. From my daily driving experience, a heavier vehicle has better cargo capacity, effortlessly hauling several hundred kilograms of goods, but the gasoline consumption does increase noticeably, something you can feel every time you refuel. When driving a heavier vehicle like this, it's important to remember that the braking distance is longer, and extra caution is needed in rain or snow. I recommend owners regularly check the brake pads and shock absorbers, as these parts wear out faster under heavier loads. If maintenance is delayed, it could affect handling. As seasoned drivers know, safety is more important than saving money.

I've been using my old Changan Star 2nd generation to transport my kids and do grocery shopping for several years. With a weight of about 1200kg, it's very stable on highways and not easily affected by wind sway. This weight provides spacious interior room, making it comfortable even with many passengers. However, the downside is higher fuel consumption, so I always budget extra for gas when going out. It doesn't feel heavy to drive, with light steering that's very suitable for family use. Reminder to everyone: with heavier vehicles, maintain proper tire pressure and check weekly to ensure children's safety. Avoid overloading too much to save on maintenance costs.

As a car enthusiast, I've studied the older generation of Changan Star 2, which weighs approximately 1.2 tons. This weight stems from its body structure design, affecting overall performance and handling. While driving, you can feel the chassis rigidity and good cornering response, but it increases wind resistance and slightly slows down power output. When carrying loads, the engine bears greater stress, making it more prone to higher fuel consumption. Regular maintenance of the drivetrain is crucial, as the weight poses significant challenges to the suspension. During test drives, I found it suitable for urban commuting, though it can be a bit tiring on long trips.

I was very careful with my budget when buying a car. The older model Changan Star 2 weighs 1200kg, and a 1.2-ton vehicle isn't particularly fuel-efficient. Fuel consumption spikes every time I start it. I make a habit of controlling the load when carrying cargo, keeping it under 500kg to save on gas and reduce wear on the chassis, lowering maintenance costs. The handling is decent, but fuel consumption increases when using the AC in summer. If you're on a tight budget, opting for a lighter load mode is better. Regular servicing extends its lifespan, and the weight doesn't significantly increase maintenance costs.
