Is the KAMIQ engine a joint venture product?
2 Answers
The KAMIQ engine is a joint venture product. The entire KAMIQ lineup is equipped with a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine, which delivers a maximum power output of 82 kW and a peak torque of 145 N·m. This engine features multi-point fuel injection technology and utilizes an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. The KAMIQ is a compact SUV under the ŠKODA brand, with a wheelbase of 2,610 mm and dimensions of 4,390 mm in length, 1,781 mm in width, and 1,593 mm in height. The front suspension of the KAMIQ employs a MacPherson independent suspension, while the rear suspension uses a torsion beam non-independent suspension. The use of a torsion beam rear suspension helps to expand rear passenger space and trunk capacity, enhancing overall ride comfort.
I have a good understanding of car brands. The Skoda Kamiq in the Chinese market is a model jointly produced by SAIC Volkswagen, so of course, its engine is also a joint venture product. Skoda belongs to the Volkswagen Group, and the core components of its models are locally manufactured by partners, utilizing Volkswagen's EA series engine technology. This model combines German precision with the advantages of local production, making the engine performance more stable, such as timely power response in daily driving and well-controlled fuel consumption. As someone who pays attention to technical details, I have found that joint venture production also enhances maintenance convenience, with a wide supply of spare parts. Tailored to the demands of the Chinese market, the Kamiq's engine offers good durability and environmental standards, providing peace of mind for car owners.
