What engine does the Tiggo 5 have?
2 Answers
Tiggo 5 is equipped with two types of engines: a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine and a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine. The 2.0-liter naturally aspirated engine delivers 139 horsepower and a maximum torque of 182 Nm, while the 1.5-liter turbocharged engine produces 152 horsepower and a maximum torque of 205 Nm. The Tiggo 5 is a compact SUV with body dimensions of 4506mm in length, 1841mm in width, and 1740mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2610mm. In terms of exterior design, the Tiggo 5 adopts Chery's family-style design, featuring a rectangular grille paired with polygonal headlights and stylish chrome accents, giving this SUV a robust and masculine design style. Combined with a dynamic bumper design, the front fascia exudes a strong and bold presence.
The engine used in the Tiggo 5 depends on the version. I usually enjoy studying car details. For the early models around 2014 to 2016, many were equipped with Chery's own 2.0L naturally aspirated engine, model SQRE4G16, with about 112 horsepower. It's quite suitable for city commuting, offering smooth acceleration at low speeds but lacking power at high speeds. Later upgraded versions switched to a 1.5L turbocharged engine, such as the SQRE4T15, boosting horsepower to 152. The turbo kicks in early, making it more powerful to drive, and fuel consumption is lower, around 7.5L per 100km. This engine is designed to be compact and reliable, with an aluminum alloy cylinder block to reduce weight and prevent overheating. It’s quite durable for daily driving, but turbocharged engines require more careful maintenance. Overall, most people choose the Tiggo 5 for its economic practicality.
