What engine is used in the 2014 Changan Eado?

[VanPhoebe]

The 2014 Changan Eado is equipped with two types of engines: a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine and a 1.6-liter naturally aspirated engine. The 1.6-liter naturally aspirated engine has a maximum power of 92 kW, a maximum torque of 160 Nm, a maximum power speed of 6000 rpm, and a maximum torque speed range of 4000 to 5000 rpm. This engine is paired with either a 5-speed manual transmission or a 4-speed automatic transmission. The 1.5-liter turbocharged engine delivers a maximum power of 125 kW, a maximum torque of 230 Nm, a maximum power speed of 5500 rpm, and a maximum torque speed range of 1950 to 4500 rpm. This engine is matched with a 6-speed automatic transmission with manual shift mode. The dimensions of the 2014 Changan Eado are 4620 mm in length, 1820 mm in width, and 1490 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2660 mm.

My 2014 Changan Eado is equipped with a Changan self-produced 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, typically model JL478Q, which belongs to the BlueCore series. Having driven this car for nearly seven years, the power delivery is quite linear without any jerky sensations. In city driving, fuel consumption stays around 6-7 liters per 100 km, dropping to 5-6 liters during highway cruising—economical and practical. However, acceleration from standstill is slightly sluggish, taking about 12 seconds for 0-100 km/h, requiring extra patience when overtaking. Fortunately, it’s perfectly adequate for family trips or daily commutes. The engine has a simple structure, and maintenance only requires original 92-octane gasoline. I’ve changed the oil filter twice, each time costing around a hundred yuan. I once encountered the common issue of water pump leakage, but it was fixed under warranty at the 4S store without extra charges. Overall, this engine is reliable, durable, and cheap to maintain, making it ideal for cost-conscious daily drivers like me.

My 2014 Yidong is equipped with a Changan 1.6L naturally aspirated engine with BlueCore technology, which runs quietly with minimal noise. The power performance is balanced, with an average fuel consumption of around 6 liters for daily city driving and a bit over 5 liters on the highway, saving me a lot on fuel costs over long-term use. The engine is paired with either a 5-speed manual or 4-speed automatic transmission, offering decent acceleration response but not particularly fast—0-100km/h takes over 12 seconds, and it struggles slightly when climbing hills. The engine layout is reasonable, and the chassis tuning is comfortable. It runs on 92-octane fuel and is easy to maintain—I once replaced the air filter myself for just a few dozen yuan. Overall, the engine has a long lifespan with no major issues, making it ideal for commuters like me who prioritize reliability.

I've worked on many 2014 Eado models during repairs, which use the JL478Q 1.6L naturally aspirated engine with a simple and straightforward structure. In city driving, the fuel consumption is around 6 liters per 100km, which is quite economical. The power delivery is smooth and not aggressive, with a 0-100km/h acceleration time of about 12 seconds, sufficient for daily use. Common minor issues include water pump or oil seal ring aging leading to leaks, which can be easily fixed by timely replacement of parts. The recommended maintenance interval is every 5,000 kilometers or six months for an oil and filter change—just avoid cheap oil products. The engine is reliable with low maintenance costs, and feedback from car owners is generally positive.

My husband bought our 2014 Changan Eado as a family car, equipped with a Changan 1.6L engine. I can't recall the exact model number but he mentioned it's a naturally aspirated version. It drives smoothly without much bumpiness, with urban fuel consumption around 7L/100km when taking kids to school, dropping below 6L/100km on long trips which is quite economical. The acceleration is slightly sluggish at startup, but perfectly adequate for grocery runs and school commutes. Maintenance is simple - we change the engine oil ourselves for under 100 yuan. The engine runs quietly with few malfunctions, making it very reliable for family use.

My 2014 Eado is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, tuned with BlueCore technology, delivering a smooth power output with a maximum power of around 92kW. City fuel consumption is controlled at approximately 6 liters, while highway cruising can be as low as 5 liters, making it practical and economical. The 0-100 km/h acceleration takes about 12 seconds, which is relatively smooth, and it comes with either a manual or automatic transmission, sufficient for daily use. The engine is reliable with low maintenance costs; using 92-octane fuel helps prevent carbon buildup, and regular maintenance extends its lifespan. Overall, it offers balanced performance and high cost-effectiveness, making it suitable for family users.
