I've been driving the Changan UNI-T for several months now and feel its engine is quite reliable. It's powered by Changan's own Blue Whale series 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, model Blue Whale NE1.5T. The power response is quick, with strong acceleration from a standstill, making overtaking during city commutes effortless, especially during peak traffic jams where a light tap on the throttle easily lets you cut in. This engine delivers 188 horsepower and 300 Nm of torque, paired with a dual-clutch transmission for high transmission efficiency and significant fuel savings. My actual measured combined fuel consumption is about 7.5L/100km, and even occasional long highway trips don't make me worry about fuel costs. During daily driving, the engine has minimal vibration and good noise control, keeping kids in the back seat comfortable. However, I must remind everyone that regular maintenance is crucial, such as changing the engine oil every 5,000 kilometers to maintain the engine's optimal condition and avoid carbon buildup issues. Overall, this car strikes a good balance between power and fuel economy, suitable for daily commuting while still offering a bit of spirited driving.

As a car enthusiast, I've done some research on the Changan UNI-T's engine. It comes equipped with the Blue Whale NE1.5T turbocharged engine, a popular in-house developed model by Changan. Its core technologies include direct fuel injection and high-pressure turbocharging, delivering a maximum power output of 188 horsepower and peak torque of 300 Nm, which ranks among the top in its SUV class. In real-world driving, it offers strong torque at low RPMs, making hill climbs effortless, while maintaining smooth power delivery without hesitation at high RPMs. Fuel efficiency is also impressive, with an official combined fuel consumption of 7.4L/100km. A friend's real-world test showed slightly higher urban consumption at around 8L, but it can drop to approximately 6.5L on highways. The engine features a modular design for high reliability, with few reported issues—the Blue Whale series has been proven across multiple Changan models. Additionally, it meets the China VI-b emission standards, balancing environmental friendliness with practicality. For those prioritizing durability, it's advisable to avoid excessive modifications and stick to the factory settings.

The power core of the Changan UNI-T is the Blue Whale 1.5T turbocharged engine, which delivers ample horsepower and fierce torque, making the drive incredibly exhilarating! The acceleration provides a strong push-back sensation, achieving 0-100 km/h in just over 7 seconds, leaving others far behind at traffic lights. For daily driving, it's fuel-efficient and more than sufficient, with a combined fuel consumption of around 7L. Switching to sport mode doubles the fun. The engine responds sensitively, and the handling is light and agile, with no sluggishness in corners.

Is It Mandatory to Report a Stolen License Plate to the Police?

Reporting a stolen license plate to the police is not mandatory, but doing so can help preserve legal evidence and avoid issues when handling related procedures. The vehicle management office requires that if you wish to obtain a renewal quota, you must recover the old vehicle and obtain a stolen vehicle certificate from the public security department. However, if the public security department does not file a case, the certificate cannot be issued. According to regulations, you may be unable to participate in license plate auctions or lotteries, potentially facing a situation where you have a car but no license plate. If a vehicle under your name is lost, it is best to report it immediately to obtain legal documentation and apply for a note at the vehicle management office. Below are the consequences of not reporting a lost license plate: 1. Renewal Quota: If an individual has two motor vehicles under their name, only one can obtain a renewal quota. If a motor vehicle under your name should be deregistered according to the law but has not been, you cannot obtain a renewal quota. 2. Scrapping: You can obtain a renewal quota by scrapping the vehicle, but the vehicle must meet certain conditions. First, the vehicle must be taken to a scrapping company for lawful destruction, and the company must issue a destruction certificate. With this certificate and the owner's ID, you can then deregister the vehicle at the vehicle management office. After completing the deregistration, you can apply for a small car renewal quota at the municipal transportation commission.
