Different models of Changan Oushang have different engines. The 2022 1.5T and 2021 1.5T Changan Oushang X5 use the JL473ZQ2 engine model, with a maximum horsepower of 180 hp, maximum power of 132 kW, maximum power speed of 5500 rpm, and peak torque of 300 N.m. The 2021 1.6T Changan Oushang X5 uses the JL478QEP engine model, with a maximum horsepower of 128 hp, maximum power of 94 kW, maximum power speed of 6000 rpm, and peak torque of 161 N.m. The 1.5T and 1.6T engines of Changan Oushang are domestically produced, independently manufactured by Changan Company, with the factory located in Chongqing. For daily maintenance of Changan Oushang engines, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional devices of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, select CB_CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements; Regularly change the oil and filter. The quality of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, performance deteriorates, causing various problems for the engine. To avoid faults, change the oil regularly according to usage conditions and keep the oil volume moderate; When oil passes through the fine holes of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is blocked and oil cannot pass through the filter element, it will burst the filter element or open the safety valve, passing through the bypass valve and bringing dirt back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and internal pollution; Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gas, acid, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides in the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston ring and cylinder wall, mixing with metal powder produced by part wear to form sludge. When the amount is small, it suspends in the oil; when the amount is large, it precipitates from the oil, blocking the filter and oil holes, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear; Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the normal operation of the engine but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.
I've driven the Changan Oshan X7 several times. It's equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine delivering about 150 horsepower and around 300 Nm of torque. The car has strong initial acceleration, responds quickly when you step on the gas, and performs well on highways. Fuel efficiency is decent with a combined consumption of 7.2 liters per 100 km, slightly higher in city driving. The turbocharging technology provides good low-end torque, making overtaking effortless. Noise control is excellent with minimal cabin noise, ensuring comfort on long drives. Maintenance is hassle-free - just regular oil changes keep it in good shape. The parameters are designed with a sporty bias, suitable for drivers who enjoy spirited driving. Overall, it offers great value for money.
