The Emgrand GS is equipped with two engines: a 1.4T engine and a 1.8L engine. Both engines are independently developed. The Emgrand GS offers two powertrain options: 1.4T and 1.8L, with model numbers JLC4G18 and JLB4G13TB, respectively. The maximum power outputs are 141PS and 177PS, and the peak torques are 235N·m and 255N·m, respectively. For daily maintenance of the Emgrand GS engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of the appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional equipment of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions. For diesel engines, choose CB--CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's specified requirements. Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, the performance deteriorates, leading to various engine problems. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When 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 oil cannot pass through, the filter may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication points, 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. In small amounts, it remains suspended in the oil; in large amounts, it precipitates, clogging filters 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 properly but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

Speaking of the Emgrand GS, I've test-driven it several times. It mainly uses Geely's own 1.5L turbocharged engine, delivering around 177 horsepower and 255 Nm of torque. This engine is quite powerful, featuring direct fuel injection technology for high fuel efficiency. It responds quickly in city driving with smooth acceleration, and the actual fuel consumption is measured at 6.5-7L per 100 km. On the highway, it feels stable with no noticeable noise, and maintenance is straightforward. I recommend using synthetic oil regularly to maintain long-term performance. Car enthusiasts who enjoy strong power should pay attention to maintenance tips for this engine, and avoid using low-grade gasoline to protect the turbocharger's lifespan.

I'm very familiar with the Emgrand GS, having driven it for almost a year. The common engine options are the 1.4T or 1.5T versions. It's very user-friendly for daily driving, especially the 1.5T engine which has ample horsepower and quick acceleration, making it suitable for family trips or daily commutes. In terms of fuel consumption, I average just over 7L in the city, which can drop to 6L on highways, making it quite economical. Maintenance-wise, there haven't been major issues—just regular oil and filter changes. It's advisable to conduct a simple check of the wiring every 5,000 km to prevent poor contact. The engine is generally reliable, comfortable for long drives, and ideal for owners who prioritize practicality.

MISTRA: Should I Use 92 or 95 Octane Gasoline?

According to the official vehicle manual recommendations, the MISTRA 1.8L and 2.0L naturally aspirated engines are advised to use 92-octane gasoline, while the 1.6T turbocharged engine requires 95-octane gasoline. In addition to checking the appropriate gasoline grade in the vehicle manual, you can also find this information on the fuel tank cap, which will be clearly marked. Typically, the gasoline grade can also be determined based on the engine's compression ratio. Vehicles with an engine compression ratio between 8.6-9.9 should use 92-octane gasoline, while those with a compression ratio between 10.0-11.5 should use 95-octane gasoline. However, with the application of new technologies, the compression ratio alone cannot determine the required gasoline grade, as high-compression engines can also be tuned to use lower-octane gasoline. This is because, besides the compression ratio, other factors such as ignition timing, turbocharging technology, and Atkinson cycle technology also play a role. Generally, the higher the gasoline octane rating, the higher the octane number and the better the anti-knock performance. 92-octane gasoline contains 92% isooctane and 8% n-heptane, while 95-octane gasoline contains 95% isooctane and 5% n-heptane. If you occasionally use the wrong gasoline grade in the MISTRA, simply switch back to the correct grade after the current tank is used up. However, prolonged use of the wrong gasoline grade can have the following effects: For vehicles recommended to use lower-octane gasoline, using a higher-octane grade will not cause damage. However, the increase in octane number can alter the fuel's ignition point, leading to delayed combustion in the engine. This reduces the engine's power output and thermal efficiency, resulting in poorer performance. For vehicles recommended to use higher-octane gasoline, using a lower-octane grade can cause engine knocking. This occurs because the significantly lower octane number reduces the gasoline's ignition point, causing premature ignition during the compression stroke. If the fuel ignites before the spark plug fires, resistance will occur during the upward stroke. This resistance makes the engine run very unstably. Mild knocking may only increase noise without obvious engine damage, but severe knocking indicates serious engine issues. The vibrations not only affect driving stability but can also cause abnormal wear on pistons and cylinders, and in severe cases, lead to cylinder scoring.
