I've been driving the Beidou Star X5 for a while now. It's equipped with Suzuki's K14B series 1.4L naturally aspirated engine, with a displacement of around 1.4 liters and an output power of approximately 70 kW. It drives quite smoothly in the city, with acceleration that's not particularly fast but very smooth, without any noticeable jerking. The engine is exceptionally fuel-efficient, with my urban fuel consumption averaging just 6 to 7 liters per 100 kilometers, and even less on the highway. Maintenance is also straightforward, with original parts readily available and servicing costs being quite affordable—just a few hundred yuan for an oil change and spark plug replacement. It's highly reliable; my car has covered 50,000 to 60,000 kilometers without any major issues, making it ideal for daily commuting or short-distance family use.
Speaking of the engine in the Beidou X5, I remember it's Suzuki's K14B, a 1.4L naturally aspirated gasoline engine. I've driven it a few times on city roads, and while the acceleration response isn't particularly fast, it's practical enough, with good noise control and no noticeable rattles. The fuel consumption is truly worry-free, averaging around 6.5 liters for daily commuting, and dropping below 6 liters on long-distance trips. This engine is known for its durability, with many owners reporting minimal carbon buildup even after prolonged use and long spark plug life. It's well-suited for average family users or novice drivers—fuel-efficient, cost-effective, and robust, with straightforward maintenance that doesn't require much hassle.
