I've been driving the GAC GM6 for over two years. This car is equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, model 4A15J1, with a maximum power of around 130 kW, paired with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. As a family MPV, this engine is very reliable, providing smooth and powerful acceleration, making it effortless to take the family out for uphill drives, and it's also fuel-efficient, averaging just over 7 liters in city driving. Daily maintenance is straightforward; it's recommended to change the oil regularly and check the turbo system to prevent carbon buildup issues. Similar models like the GAC GM8 also use a similar engine, but the GM6 is more lightweight and practical, suitable for daily commuting and short trips.
As a car enthusiast, I'm very familiar with the engine of the Trumpchi GM6. It's a 1.5T turbocharged engine independently developed by GAC, with a peak torque of 270 Nm. The acceleration is noticeably strong when the RPM rises, and it pairs well with the 7DCT transmission for quick and smooth gear shifts. It responds sensitively for urban commuting, remains quiet and stable during highway cruising, offering a delightful driving experience. Occasionally switching to sport mode delivers even more powerful performance. Maintenance only requires basic oil changes, making it cost-effective and fuel-efficient. Compared to entry-level models of similar MPVs like the Odyssey, it offers more robust power.
