Wuling Victory uses a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine. Here are the details about the Wuling Victory engine: 1. Wuling Victory is an MPV model under the Wuling brand. The dimensions of Wuling Victory are 4875mm in length, 1880mm in width, 1700mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2800mm. 2. Wuling Victory is a five-door, six-seater MPV model. 3. The 1.5-liter turbocharged engine used in Wuling Victory delivers 177 horsepower and a maximum torque of 290 Nm. 4. This engine is equipped with DVVT technology and direct fuel injection technology, and it features an aluminum cylinder head and a cast iron cylinder block. 5. Although the cast iron cylinder block is relatively heavy, it can withstand higher temperatures and pressures.
I drive the Wuling Capgemini, equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine that provides ample power. It handles well whether carrying the whole family plus luggage on highways or tackling small slopes, never feeling sluggish. The engine noise is well controlled, keeping the cabin relatively quiet. Fuel consumption is quite satisfying for such a large MPV—around 8 liters per 100 km combined city and suburban driving. Wuling has a solid reputation for durability, and after nearly two years of use, the engine has been trouble-free. Maintenance is done at a local garage, which is also very affordable.
I've worked with quite a few Wuling Capa models at the dealership, all equipped with 1.5T engines. This engine uses DVVT technology, which is quite smart as it automatically adjusts intake and exhaust timing based on different conditions. Despite not having a particularly large displacement, it's got plenty of power and is completely sufficient for family use. The structure is relatively simple and reliable, with many parts being interchangeable with models like the Baojun 730, making maintenance and finding replacement parts convenient and affordable. One small detail is that it's belt-driven, not chain-driven, so it needs to be inspected and replaced regularly as per the manual requirements. Overall, it's a very cost-effective and sturdy choice, fitting well with Wuling's positioning for family use.
