What engine does the Honda Haoying have?
2 Answers
Honda Haoying's engine is domestically produced in China, utilizing Honda's technology. It is a turbocharged engine and belongs to the Earth Dreams series. The engine model used in the Honda Haoying is L15BT. The 1.5T engine has a maximum power output of 142kW and a maximum torque of 243Nm. The 2.0L engine has a maximum power output of 146 horsepower, with an additional electric motor providing a maximum power output of 184 horsepower. Here are some maintenance methods for the Honda Haoying's engine in daily use: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, choose SD-SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional devices in the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions. For diesel engines, select CB-CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements. Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, its performance will deteriorate, causing various problems for the engine. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged and oil cannot pass through, it may rupture the filter or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication areas, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls. These mix with metal particles from component wear to form sludge. A small amount remains suspended in the oil, while a large amount precipitates, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine operates normally but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.
I remember the Honda Haoying mainly offers two engine options. The gasoline version is equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, model L15BE, with a maximum output of 182 horsepower and 250 Nm of torque. It uses Honda's classic VTEC technology, which intelligently adjusts valve lift to enhance power while reducing fuel consumption. The driving experience is strong in acceleration, with quick low-speed response in the city and no sluggishness when overtaking on highways. The hybrid version features a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine paired with dual electric motors to form the i-MMD system, delivering a combined power of 215 horsepower. The pure electric mode is quiet and fuel-efficient, with the engine only engaging when needed, ensuring smooth transitions. This system is highly efficient and energy-saving, making it ideal for daily commuting. I've driven the hybrid version, and in congested urban areas, fuel consumption can drop as low as 5 liters per 100 kilometers, while maintaining around 7 liters on long-distance trips, making it very practical.
