The Yuexiang V5 is equipped with a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine independently developed by Changan, typically the JL475Q7 from the BlueCore series. It delivers a maximum power of around 78 kilowatts (approximately 105 horsepower), providing smooth and reliable performance with adequate acceleration response for daily city driving. Fuel consumption is well controlled, with an official combined figure of about 6.5 liters per 100 kilometers, though real-world usage may reach 7 liters—making it both fuel-efficient and economical, ideal for regular commuting and family trips. Maintenance is straightforward, with low costs for oil and filter changes, and parts are easy to find anywhere, keeping ownership costs low. I also appreciate its smoothness, as vibration and noise are well managed, and it remains stable at high speeds without feeling floaty, proving reliable over several years of use. For budget-conscious buyers, it’s a great choice with high cost performance.

I've been driving the Changan Alsvin V5 for almost three years, equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine featuring Changan's proprietary BlueCore technology. The power output is adequate, providing smooth acceleration from standstill and maintains decent performance even on long-distance drives. In terms of fuel consumption, it averages around 7L/100km in urban areas and can drop to about 6L/100km on highways, making monthly fuel expenses quite economical. The durability is impressive - routine maintenance costs just a few hundred yuan, though timely replacement of spark plugs and belts is advised. Overall reliability is strong. The engine operates quietly, starts promptly in cold winters, and though there's slight power reduction when AC is used in summer, it remains acceptable. Don't skimp on maintenance; sticking to genuine engine oil prolongs engine life. It's clocked over 100,000 km without major repairs.

As a mechanical enthusiast, the Yuexiang V5 is equipped with a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine featuring VVT (Variable Valve Timing) technology, which optimizes combustion efficiency through intake and exhaust adjustment, delivering an output power of 78kW. Its simple structure without a turbocharger ensures easy maintenance and fewer faults. During daily driving, the throttle response is linear with smooth acceleration, and the ample low-end torque makes it suitable for city driving. The fuel consumption is reasonably designed, becoming even more economical in eco-mode, while meeting emission standards for environmental friendliness. The technical details are straightforward, making it easy for beginners to understand.
