Shuaike uses two engines in total, one is a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine, and the other is a 1.6-liter naturally aspirated engine. The 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine has a maximum power of 75 kW and a maximum torque of 132 Nm; the 1.6-liter naturally aspirated engine has a maximum power of 83 kW and a maximum torque of 150 Nm. All Shuaike models are front-wheel drive. The dimensions of this car are 4500mm in length, 1695mm in width, and 1825mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2695mm. The front suspension uses a MacPherson independent suspension, while the rear suspension uses a torsion beam non-independent suspension. The interior space of this car is relatively large, and its trunk space is also quite spacious, offering good practicality.
As an ordinary user who has driven the Shuai Ke for several years, I find its engine quite practical. It usually comes with a 1.6L gasoline engine, model HR16DE, which has been widely used in Nissan vehicles for many years. This engine delivers stable power output, with city driving fuel consumption around 8L per 100km, dropping to just over 6L on highways. It handles family trips or deliveries without any difficulty. I recall the older models had a 2.0L version, but the newer 1.6L is more common now, offering better fuel efficiency. The engine noise can be slightly louder at high speeds, but the cabin insulation is decent, so it doesn’t affect comfort. Maintenance is straightforward—regular oil works fine, with changes needed every 5,000 km. If you’re considering buying one, it’s best to check the maintenance records to avoid heavily worn engines. Overall, it’s a great choice for budget-conscious buyers, offering good reliability and lasting over a decade without major issues, unlike some engines prone to overheating. Replacement parts are also affordable, making daily upkeep cost-effective and hassle-free.
