Is the New Sail equipped with a timing chain?
1 Answers
The New Sail is equipped with a timing chain, which replaces the traditional belt design. The primary function of the timing chain is to drive the engine's valve train, ensuring that the intake and exhaust valves open and close at the appropriate times. Compared to older timing belts, the timing chain has a longer service life, typically lasting around 150,000 kilometers. The Sail is powered by 1.2L, 1.3L, 1.4L, 1.5L, and 1.6L naturally aspirated engines. The car measures 3947mm in length, 1690mm in width, 1503mm in height, and has a wheelbase of 2465mm. The front fascia of the Sail shares the same design as the sedan version, featuring a wide decorative strip running across the central grille, with the golden bowtie emblem embedded in the middle. Paired with slightly sharp headlights and a robust front bumper, it carries a sporty vibe reminiscent of the Cruze. The crystal headlights house an H4 socket-integrated halogen bulb for both high and low beams, with clearly positioned position lights and turn signals.
