2 Answers
SWM X7 is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine and a 1.8L naturally aspirated engine. The 1.8L naturally aspirated engine has a maximum output power of 137 horsepower and a peak torque of 185 N·m. SWM X7 is a 7-seat SUV model under SWM Motors, with body dimensions of 4710mm in length, 1855mm in width, and 1770mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2750mm. In terms of appearance, the front face of the SWM X7 features a 16-column Roman-style front grille, eagle-eye headlights with a classic design, and the rear exhaust adopts a dual-tailpipe design commonly used in sports cars.
When I drove the SWM X7 before, it was equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, specifically the SW487ZQ5 model, with a maximum horsepower of 156 and torque of 230 Nm. This engine is quite powerful, providing quick acceleration from a standstill, making it easy to get ahead at traffic lights, and it doesn’t lag when overtaking on the highway. For daily city driving, the fuel consumption is around 7 to 8 liters per 100 km, which is quite economical, and it’s even more cost-effective on the highway. The engine noise is well-controlled—quiet at low speeds, with a bit of a roar during hard acceleration but not bothersome, making it suitable for commuters like me. Maintenance is convenient, usually just an oil and filter change costing a few hundred yuan, and it’s durable—no major issues after driving 50,000 km. If you occasionally need to haul goods or go on a family trip, the power is more than sufficient, and the spacious interior handles the load well. Overall, it offers great value for money, and I’d recommend it to practical-minded friends.
