As a guy who frequently works in repair shops, I've seen quite a few cases with the GAC Trumpchi GM8. It mainly comes equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline engine, model similar to 4B20J1, delivering a maximum power of about 185 kW and a torque of up to 380 Nm. The power delivery of this engine is very linear, especially when accelerating on highways—it's steady with no noticeable lag, and pairs smoothly with the 8-speed automatic transmission. However, I've encountered some owners reporting that fuel consumption can rise to around 11 liters in congested city driving. It's advisable to regularly check the turbo system and sensors, as neglecting maintenance could lead to ignition issues or unusual noises. Overall, the powertrain is reliable and suits the load demands of an MPV, though the engine bay design is compact, making DIY part replacements a bit tricky. Routine maintenance isn't expensive, and replacing the oil filter and spark plugs is straightforward. It holds up well even on long-distance trips.
