The Roewe i6 is equipped with two engines: a 1.5T and a 1.6L, with model numbers 15E4E and 16S4C respectively. The 15E4E engine reaches its maximum power at 5600 rpm and its maximum torque at 4300 rpm, while the 16S4C engine achieves its maximum power at 6000 rpm and maximum torque at 4500 rpm. The Roewe i6 is positioned as a compact A+ class wide and comfortable luxury internet sedan, with body dimensions of 4671mm in length, 1835mm in width, and 1464mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2715mm. The Roewe i6 features a brand-new front face design with a larger grille that integrates seamlessly with the headlights.

The Roewe i6 generally uses the 1.5T turbocharged engine, model seems to be 15E4E. I've driven it a few times myself and it feels quite powerful, with a maximum horsepower of around 169 and torque of about 250 Nm. It's very stable when overtaking on the highway. The fuel economy is also good, with urban fuel consumption around 7L per 100 km, and even better on long trips. This engine incorporates several technologies like direct injection and variable valve timing, offering smooth performance and good noise control, so it doesn't vibrate much. As for maintenance, regular oil and filter changes are crucial to prevent carbon buildup in the turbocharger. Roewe is also investing in new energy, and this engine can transition to hybrid or pure electric, making it more environmentally friendly in the future. I suspect that post-2020 configurations might have been upgraded to meet the China VI emission standards.

I'm an ordinary driver of a Roewe i6. The car is equipped with a 1.5T four-cylinder engine, which accelerates quickly and starts without delay. The fuel consumption is well controlled for urban commuting, with an actual measurement of about 7.5L per 100 kilometers. The engine noise is not too loud, making it comfortable to drive, and it performs decently in cold starts during winter. In terms of reliability, I haven't encountered any major issues in two years of driving. Regular maintenance involves changing the engine oil and oil filter at authorized shops, which doesn't cost much. Compared to my previous Honda Civic, this car has significantly better power, but I recommend avoiding aggressive throttle use during the break-in period. The Roewe brand has made great progress in recent years, and its engine offers better value for money compared to Geely's 1.5T, making it suitable for budget-conscious young people.

As a common sight during car repairs, the Roewe i6 is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, which is well-designed but requires regular maintenance. Common issues include clogged filters or turbo carbon buildup, which can affect power output. It is recommended to check the oil and cooling system every 5,000 kilometers, and replace the spark plugs regularly to prevent carbon buildup. If acceleration becomes sluggish over time, it may be due to clogged injectors. The engine is generally durable and can last up to ten years with normal use, paired with a smooth-operating 6-speed transmission. Parts are readily available and relatively affordable, making it suitable for family car needs.
