What engine does WEY car use?
2 Answers
WEY cars are equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged four-cylinder engine. The function of the engine is to convert the thermal energy of gasoline into mechanical energy by burning and expanding the gas in a sealed cylinder, thereby pushing the piston to perform work. Taking the 2021 WEY VV5 as an example, it belongs to the compact car category, with body dimensions of: length 4462mm, width 1857mm, height 1638mm, a wheelbase of 2680mm, a fuel tank capacity of 55L, and a curb weight of 1579kg. The 2021 WEY VV5 is powered by a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 171PS, a maximum power of 126kW, and a maximum torque of 287Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I've been driving WEY cars for a while and feel their engines are quite powerful. Popular models like the VV5 and VV7 mostly use Great Wall's own 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, model GW4C20B, with a maximum power output of around 227 horsepower. This engine features early turbo engagement at low RPMs, providing quick acceleration response—making city driving smooth and highway overtaking effortless. It also utilizes direct injection technology, offering decent fuel efficiency. The official fuel consumption is about 8-9L per 100km, though real-world usage might be 1-2L higher. Maintenance costs are reasonable. The aluminum alloy engine block reduces weight, enhancing overall vehicle performance. I recommend regular checks on the fuel system to prevent carbon buildup from affecting power. Overall, both performance and reliability are impressive, making it a great choice for enthusiasts who enjoy sporty driving. The advancements in domestic automotive technology have truly elevated the driving experience.
