Dorcen G70S is equipped with a 2.0T inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine, with the engine code 4G63S4T, sourced from Shenyang Mitsubishi. The 4G63S4T engine is derived from the 4G63 engine with added turbocharging modifications, produced by Shenyang Aerospace Mitsubishi. Here are some extended details about the Dorcen G70S: 1. Power: This engine delivers a maximum horsepower of 177Ps and a maximum torque of 250Nm, with peak torque available from 2400-4400rpm. 2. Fuel consumption: The fuel consumption of this engine in the Dorcen G70S is moderate, considering the vehicle's substantial size and weight, tipping the scales at 1731Kg. While fuel efficiency shouldn't be expected to be outstanding, it's not excessively high compared to other models in the same class.
Last time I test drove the Dorcen G70s, and I felt the 1.8-liter turbocharged engine in this SUV was quite practical. The power delivery is smooth, with no sluggishness at startup, and it accelerates quickly in the city, making overtaking easy. On the highway, when the RPM goes above 3000, you can still feel the push-back sensation, though the fuel consumption is slightly higher—around 9L/100km in the city and dropping to 7.5L/100km on long trips, which is a fairly average level. The engine is an inline-four design, and compared to some Japanese cars, it's a bit noisier, especially during hard acceleration when there's a noticeable hum, but you get used to it after a while. I’ve used it for over a year with hardly any minor issues, just remember to change the engine oil and air filter on time, and the turbo system needs proper maintenance to avoid carbon buildup affecting performance. Overall, the engine’s reliability is pretty good, suitable for daily family use, and it drives steadily enough.
