SAIC Maxus Engine Brand?
2 Answers
This vehicle's engine brand is produced in-house. The current engine options include a 2.0T displacement (jointly developed by SAIC Internal Combustion Engine, Germany, and Italy, featuring an all-aluminum engine, direct fuel injection, DVVT, and second-generation turbocharging) and a Mitsubishi 2.4L displacement. Transmission: ZF (Germany) 6-speed automatic transmission, WIA (Korea) 6-speed manual transmission. The SAIC Maxus G10 engine brand is independently developed by SAIC: 1. The SAIC Maxus G10 uses the D19 diesel engine, which is independently developed by SAIC Group and meets Euro 5 emission standards. 2. This engine was first applied in 2012 to the MG6 model under SAIC Motor, which was launched in the UK. The engine has a maximum power output of 110Kw and a maximum torque of 350Nm. 3. In terms of overall performance, this engine has reached the level of world-class diesel engines. Additionally, its NVH performance has significantly improved, breaking away from the previous technological backwardness of domestic diesel engines and helping SAIC products enter developed European markets.
SAIC Maxus engines are developed in-house, primarily using the π series diesel and gasoline engines. For example, the π 2.0T diesel engine is used in the G10 commercial vehicle, delivering strong power and smooth acceleration. I've driven my friend's G50 a few times, equipped with the π 1.5T gasoline engine, and its fuel consumption is well-controlled, averaging 6-7 liters in the city and even more economical on highways. With SAIC Group's strong background and technical collaboration with General Motors, the engine quality is reliable and comparable to those of international big brands. Regular maintenance, such as timely oil and air filter changes, can extend its lifespan. Buyers often praise the high cost-performance ratio, making it suitable for both family use and cargo transport. The engine can be slightly noisy during cold starts, but overall operation is smooth and uniform, making it highly recommended.
