What are the reasons for insufficient power in the Baojun 730?
2 Answers
The insufficient power in the Baojun 730 may be due to excessive carbon deposits in the engine, insufficient engine power to handle the vehicle weight (possibly due to carrying too much load), or inadequate fuel supply to the engine, preventing it from delivering full power. Below is a related introduction to the Baojun 730: 1. Powertrain: Equipped with a "1.5T turbocharged engine + simulated 8-speed CVT continuously variable transmission" combination. The engine has a rated power of 111kW and a maximum net torque of 250N·m. The turbocharger engages at around 1000 rpm, and at 1600 rpm, it can achieve the maximum torque of mainstream 2.4L naturally aspirated engines on the market. 2. Configuration: Standard features include an 8-inch floating central multimedia screen, while higher-end models offer a 7-inch full LCD instrument panel. The vehicle is equipped with Car-play, SSP-LINK in-car connectivity platform, and other functions, supporting both Android and Apple systems. 3. Interior: The new Baojun 730 automatic transmission features a new black-gray interior color scheme, paired with dark wood-grain panels on the dashboard, ice-blue ambient lighting, and new dual-tone luxury seats, creating a layered, high-quality, and visually spacious interior.
Shortly after purchasing the Baojun 730, I noticed a decline in power, especially when accelerating to overtake, which felt somewhat sluggish. Upon inspection at the repair shop, the mechanic suggested that the air filter might be clogged, restricting airflow and causing the engine to 'starve' for air, thereby affecting combustion efficiency. After replacing the air filter, the power noticeably improved. Additionally, aging spark plugs can lead to poor ignition; I prevent this issue by replacing them every 30,000 kilometers. Another common issue is a clogged exhaust pipe or catalytic converter, which can hinder exhaust flow and reduce vehicle performance—cleaning these components can be quite effective. A faulty fuel pump is another frequent culprit, as uneven fuel injection directly reduces power. It's advisable to perform regular maintenance and promptly check these components to ensure safe driving.
