The engine of the Hongqi H9 is domestically produced, and it comes with two engine options: one is a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, and the other is a 3.0-liter supercharged V6 engine. The 3.0-liter supercharged V6 engine of the Hongqi H9 delivers a maximum horsepower of 272 hp and a peak torque of 400 Nm. This engine features hybrid injection technology and utilizes an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. The Hongqi H9 measures 5137mm in length, 1904mm in width, and 1493mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3060mm. It employs a double-wishbone independent front suspension and a trapezoidal-arm independent rear suspension with a lateral stabilizer bar.

I'm the kind of person who loves delving into automotive details and often spends time in car forums. When the Hongqi H9 was first launched, I specifically looked into the origin of its engine. It was independently developed by our FAW Group, completely domestically produced, using the CA6GV series, including 3.0T and 2.0T versions. I compared it with imported engines and felt that in terms of power output and fuel consumption control, the domestic one is quite reliable, offering smooth driving and good fuel efficiency. The key is that the Hongqi brand represents national pride, and using a self-developed engine avoids reliance on overseas suppliers while keeping costs more controllable. During my test drive, I noticed the acceleration response was very quick, nothing like the roughness of domestic cars in the past. The engine also starts very stably in low-temperature environments, making winter driving worry-free. Overall, from both technical and practical experience perspectives, it's a source of pride for our domestic production, with convenient daily maintenance. Supporting local brands is always a good thing.

I'm relatively new to the automotive scene and was curious whether the engine in the Hongqi H9 was imported. After asking around with knowledgeable friends, I learned that it's entirely developed in-house by FAW as a domestic product. The progress in power and reliability of such engines is truly remarkable—it feels solid and quiet on the road, even more comfortable than some imported cars I've driven. In recent years, Hongqi has persisted with independent R&D to prove that China can also produce high-end engines, no longer relying on imported components to save face. I particularly love its fuel efficiency; it delivers surprisingly low fuel consumption in urban driving, making it economical and eco-friendly. The engine design also considers daily driving scenarios, such as maintaining stability on bumpy roads. Whenever discussing cars, I recommend friends pay attention to the advancements in domestic technology—the Hongqi H9 is a living example that proves our manufacturing capabilities have risen.

I'm a tech enthusiast who enjoys studying engine structures in my free time. The engine of the Hongqi H9 is indeed domestically produced, utilizing FAW's independently developed technology, including the turbocharging system. Its structural design optimizes intake and exhaust, achieving performance on par with international standards. I've tested it at high speeds, experiencing smooth linear acceleration without any vibration issues. This in-house development ensures excellent component compatibility and easy access to maintenance parts. Hongqi also incorporated new materials during R&D, reducing weight without compromising durability. For average users, this translates to cost savings and peace of mind, eliminating the need for expensive maintenance typically associated with imported vehicles.
