What cars have a 1.8L engine?

1.8L engine models include Volkswagen Tiguan, Skoda Yeti, Geely Emgrand GS, Geely Vision X6, Dongfeng Fengxing, Honda Vezel, XRV, etc. The following is a detailed introduction to car engine displacement: 1. Concept: Displacement is an important indicator used to evaluate engine performance. The volume of fluid inhaled or discharged by the engine per stroke or cycle is the engine's intake volume. The working volume through which the piston moves from top dead center to bottom dead center is called cylinder displacement. If the engine has multiple cylinders, the sum of the working volumes of all cylinders is called engine displacement. It is generally expressed in liters (L) or cubic centimeters (cc). 2. Power unit: Horsepower is defined as the power of a horse that can pull 33,000 pounds moving at 1 foot per minute, with watts (W) or kilowatts (kW) as the standard units. That is, 1 metric horsepower = 75 kilogram-force·meter/second = 735 watts. For a 1.6L displacement engine, depending on the brand and tuning method, a naturally aspirated engine typically ranges from about 100 to 120 horsepower. With turbocharging technology, it can reach up to around 130 horsepower.
I've been driving for over a decade and have seen plenty of 1.8L displacement models. Among Japanese cars, the classic Corolla, old Civic, and Sylphy Classic all used this golden displacement - offering adequate power with low fuel consumption. For German brands, the previous-generation Sagitar and Lavida also had 1.8L versions. Nowadays fewer new cars come with 1.8L engines, though the Lynk & Co 03 still offers a 1.8T option, and the Binrui has a 1.8L version. The Hyundai Mistra also previously featured 1.8L as its main displacement. The biggest advantage of these cars is their mature engines and affordable maintenance - they can easily run over 100,000 kilometers without major repairs, making them particularly suitable for ordinary families' daily commuting.
When I was buying a car, I specifically paid attention to the 1.8L displacement, as this type of car is particularly suitable for long-distance driving. The classic Corolla 1.8L can still be found in the used car market, and it doesn't lose power even with the air conditioning on in the city. Among domestic cars, the Emgrand GL has consistently used a 1.8L engine, which is smoother than smaller turbocharged engines. The older Honda CR-V 2.0L was actually an enlarged version of the 1.8L, with a particularly comfortable chassis tuning. These naturally aspirated models are becoming rarer now, but their maintenance costs are indeed low. For example, my friend's Geely Binyue 1.8L only costs 300 yuan for a service, and parts like spark plugs are also very cheap.
The 1.8L displacement used to be the mainstay of family cars. In the past, models like the old Corolla and Elantra with this displacement were everywhere, known for their durability and reliability. The classic Ford Focus RS had a 1.8T version with great modification potential. Nowadays, new cars mostly use smaller displacements, but the Geely Borui still retains the 1.8T engine, offering very linear power output. This displacement range is quite interesting—more powerful than 1.5L yet more fuel-efficient than 2.0L. Especially on highways, the engine RPM doesn’t get too high, resulting in better noise control.
