I've been driving the Kosai for a while now, and I feel the 1.5-liter turbocharged engine in this SUV is quite impressive. It starts quickly and accelerates smoothly, making it suitable for both daily commuting and road trips. Changan Oshan has done a great job with the tuning - fuel consumption is around 8-9 liters in city traffic jams, and can drop to about 7 liters on highways. The engine noise isn't too loud, and you can feel some kickback at low speeds. Paired with the automatic transmission, gear shifts are quite smooth. It's been reliable for long-term use with no major issues, though regular oil changes and maintenance are necessary. This engine also has an eco mode that can help save some fuel costs when activated while driving. Overall, it's quite practical for family users, offering spaciousness along with a powerful engine.
