Is the Geely Borui a Three-Cylinder or Four-Cylinder Engine?
2 Answers
Geely Borui offers both three-cylinder and four-cylinder versions. The three-cylinder version is equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, while the four-cylinder version uses a 1.8-liter turbocharged engine. In terms of the transmission system, both engines are paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The Geely Borui is a B-segment sedan under the Geely brand, with a wheelbase of 2870 mm and dimensions of 4986 mm in length, 1861 mm in width, and 1513 mm in height. The Borui features front-wheel drive, with a double-wishbone independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension, and employs a unibody construction.
I've been driving the Geely Borui for several years. The car's engine comes in different versions: the standard Borui is equipped with a 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine, which runs very smoothly, especially on highways where it delivers ample power with minimal vibration. It's also quite quiet for daily city commuting. Later, I test-drove the Borui GE version, which uses a 1.5-liter three-cylinder turbocharged engine. Initially, there was a slight sense of vibration, but after getting used to it, I found it to be much more fuel-efficient, especially suitable for daily commuting, with fuel consumption as low as around 6 liters per 100 kilometers. Overall, the four-cylinder engine is more stable and durable, ideal for long-distance driving, while the three-cylinder engine is more economical and environmentally friendly, making it very satisfying for owners who are sensitive to fuel consumption. For routine maintenance, I recommend checking whether the engine mounting brackets are loose to avoid increased vibration affecting comfort.
