What engine is used in the Hanteng X7?
2 Answers
The Hanteng X7 is equipped with three types of engines, with model numbers TLE4G15D, TLE4G15T, and 4G63S4T. The TLE4G15D engine has a maximum horsepower of 156 hp, a maximum power of 115 kW, a maximum power speed of 5500 rpm, and a peak torque of 215 N·m. The TLE4G15T engine also has a maximum horsepower of 156 hp, a maximum power of 115 kW, a maximum power speed of 5500 rpm, and a peak torque of 215 N·m. The 4G63S4T engine has a maximum horsepower of 190 hp, a maximum power of 140 kW, a maximum power speed of 5500 rpm, and a peak torque of 250 N·m. The engines of the Hanteng X7 are produced by SAIC Motor and are domestically manufactured. For daily maintenance of the Hanteng X7's 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 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, which can cause various problems for the engine. To avoid faults, change the oil regularly according to usage conditions and keep the oil level moderate. 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 the oil cannot pass through, the filter may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and bring contaminants back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal pollution. 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 powder from component wear to form sludge. When the amount is small, it remains suspended in the oil; when large, it precipitates, clogging the filter and oil holes, 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.
I've been driving the Hanteng X7 for almost three years. This car is equipped with Mitsubishi-technology engines, specifically two types: the 1.5T uses the 4G15T model with a maximum horsepower of 162, while the 2.0T is the 4G63S4T model, capable of delivering 190 horsepower. My 2.0T version provides a strong sense of acceleration, especially when overtaking on the highway—once the turbo kicks in at 3000 rpm, it feels particularly powerful. One detail to note: this engine runs perfectly fine on 92-octane fuel, but if you frequently drive aggressively, it's best to clean the carbon deposits every 5000 km. From personal experience, the fuel consumption stabilizes around 9L.
