The Changan CS75 is equipped with two engines: a 1.5T and a 1.8T, with engine models JL476ZQCF and JL486ZQ2 respectively. Below are the details of the engines: 1. JL476ZQCF model: The actual displacement of the JL476ZQCF engine is 1499ml, with a turbocharged intake system, 4 cylinders arranged in an L formation. The engine reaches its maximum power at 5500 RPM and its maximum torque at 4500 RPM. The fuel supply method is direct injection, and it is recommended to use 92-octane gasoline. The 1.5T version has a maximum output power of 131 kW, a maximum torque of 265 Nm, a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of approximately 10.56 seconds, and a combined fuel consumption of 6.5L per 100 km as published by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. 2. JL486ZQ2 model: The actual displacement of the JL486ZQ2 engine is 1798ml, with a turbocharged intake system, 4 cylinders arranged in an L formation. The engine reaches its maximum torque at 5500 RPM and its maximum torque at 4500 RPM. The fuel supply method is direct injection, and it is recommended to use 92-octane gasoline. The 1.8T version has a maximum output power of 130 kW, a maximum torque of 245 Nm, a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of approximately 12 seconds, and a combined fuel consumption of 7.2L per 100 km as published by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology.
I'm fascinated by the engine of the Changan CS75 because it uses the Blue Whale series 1.5T turbocharged engine, which is brilliantly designed at the technical level. It features high-pressure direct injection technology, delivering strong power output and quick acceleration response. For example, overtaking on the highway feels effortless, and fuel consumption is well controlled in city traffic, averaging less than 8L per 100 km. I particularly like its reliability—after several years of driving, it hasn’t required major repairs, just occasional checks on spark plugs and engine oil. However, the noise at startup is slightly loud, but this is normal for SUVs. Overall, this engine makes the CS75 a great choice for a family SUV—spacious, cost-effective, and stable on long trips.
