What engine is used in the BYD L3?

[LeMarley]

The engine used in the BYD L3 is independently developed by BYD and is a domestically produced engine. The 1.8L engine model in the BYD L3 is BYD483QA, with a maximum horsepower of 122, a maximum power of 90kW, and a maximum torque of 160Nm. The 1.5L engine model is BYD473QB, with a maximum horsepower of 107, a maximum power of 79kW, and a maximum torque of 144Nm. For daily maintenance of the BYD L3 engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices in the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions. For diesel engines, CB--CD grade diesel engine oil should be selected based on mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's requirements. Regularly change the engine oil and oil filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, its performance will deteriorate, causing various problems for the engine. To avoid malfunctions, the oil should be changed regularly according to usage conditions, and the oil level should be kept moderate. When engine oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is clogged and the oil cannot pass through, the filter may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing the oil to bypass the filter and carry contaminants back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal particles from component wear to form sludge. A small amount remains suspended in the oil, while a large amount precipitates, clogging the filter and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine operates normally but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.
