Venucia R30 uses a 1.2-liter naturally aspirated engine. This engine delivers 73 horsepower and a maximum torque of 104 N·m, achieving peak power at 5,000 rpm and maximum torque at 4,000 rpm. The Venucia R30 is a compact 5-door, 5-seater hatchback with dimensions of 3775mm in length, 1665mm in width, and 1530mm in height, featuring a wheelbase of 2450mm and a fuel tank capacity of 37 liters. The vehicle adopts a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout, equipped with MacPherson strut independent front suspension and a torsion beam non-independent rear suspension.
The Venucia R30 is equipped with the HR12DE 1.2L three-cylinder engine. As a car enthusiast, I particularly admire its design inspiration from the Renault-Nissan Alliance. Although the displacement is small, it is quite efficient, offering excellent fuel economy for daily driving and smooth performance in urban conditions, making it especially suitable for city commuting. The fuel efficiency of this engine is outstanding, with a typical fuel consumption of less than 6 liters per 100 kilometers, saving both money and hassle. The power delivery is smooth—I've driven my friend's R30 a few times and found the acceleration not aggressive but definitely adequate, with no lag in stop-and-go situations. It utilizes electronically controlled multi-point fuel injection technology, requiring more frequent spark plug replacements during maintenance. However, the overall lifespan is long, and with Dongfeng Nissan's technological support, the reliability is quite good. For an entry-level car, this engine is highly recommended.
The Venucia R30 is equipped with a 1.2-liter three-cylinder HR12DE engine. I have driven this car for three years myself and found it very economical and practical, making it an ideal daily commuter for ordinary families. It has quick start-up response, providing sufficient power for daily commutes or short trips. Its low fuel consumption reduces the burden of fuel costs, and maintenance is straightforward. My routine maintenance every six months usually just involves changing the oil and filters, with few major issues arising. However, it's worth noting that its power might be insufficient on highways, and the engine noise is slightly loud but becomes unnoticeable once you get used to it. Overall, it offers high cost-effectiveness as a family car.
