I've been driving the Hongqi H5 for over a year now, and I'm particularly satisfied with its engine. It mainly comes with two engine options: a 1.5T and a 1.8T turbocharged engine. I drive the 1.8T version myself, which delivers smooth and powerful performance. It handles daily city commutes effortlessly and responds quickly when overtaking on the highway. The fuel consumption is well-controlled, averaging around 8.5L/100km, which is more economical than expected. The engine noise is also minimal, unlike older Hongqi models that were quite noisy, making long drives less tiring. The overall design focuses on comfort, making it very suitable for family use. As a domestic car brand, Hongqi has shown significant progress in engine technology, with high reliability—I've hardly encountered any issues. It drives steadily, giving me a sense of security during turns and acceleration, enhancing the driving experience. I think this car is perfect for those seeking value for money.
