3 Answers
Zotye T700 is equipped with a 1.8L turbocharged engine and a 2.0L turbocharged engine, which are devices that convert the chemical energy of fuel into the mechanical energy of piston motion and output power externally. Taking the 2018 Zotye T700 dual-clutch customized version as an example, it belongs to the mid-to-large SUV category, with body dimensions of: length 4748mm, width 1933mm, height 1697mm, wheelbase of 2850mm, and minimum ground clearance of 165mm. The 2018 Zotye T700 dual-clutch customized version adopts a MacPherson independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension, with a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout.
As an avid driving enthusiast, the 1.8L turbocharged engine in the Zotye T700 genuinely appeals to me. It delivers swift power response upon startup, achieving 0-100 km/h acceleration in under 9 seconds, making city overtaking effortless and exhilarating. Official figures indicate a fuel consumption of 7-8L/100km, and in real-world driving, it doesn’t prove too thirsty either. I often discuss its tuning potential with friends—for instance, upgrading to a larger turbo or optimizing the exhaust system can boost performance, though the stock setup is already quite capable, perfect for driving enthusiasts who enjoy sharing their experiences. On long highway drives, the engine runs smoothly without overheating issues, complemented by excellent chassis tuning that makes driving both thrilling and practical.
As a daily commuter, I'm quite satisfied with the 1.8T engine of the Zotye T700, especially in terms of fuel economy. Under mixed driving conditions, my actual fuel consumption stays between 8-9L/100km, and even during heavy traffic jams on my way to work, I don't notice any significant surge in fuel consumption, which greatly reduces my monthly expenses. Engine maintenance is also straightforward—just an oil change every 5,000 kilometers, and a minor service costs only a few hundred yuan. The power delivery is smooth and reliable, effortlessly handling family trips and uphill drives, while noise control is decent, making driving less stressful. Although it's not the top-tier powertrain, it offers great value for money in this price range, balancing durability and practicality, giving me both peace of mind and affordability.
