I've been driving the Oshan X5 1.6L for three years, and it's perfectly adequate for city commuting. It accelerates briskly from traffic lights, and doesn't get cut off in traffic jams. Once, fully loaded with five people and the air conditioning on while climbing a winding mountain road, as long as I was willing to step on the gas to reach 3000 rpm, the power was still sufficient. However, when overtaking, it does require a half-second advance judgment, after all, it's a naturally aspirated engine. For daily commuting or picking up the kids, this power is economical and practical. But if you frequently drive on highways or high-altitude mountain roads, I recommend the turbocharged version.
