The Soueast DX3 is equipped with a 1.5-liter inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine and a 1.5-liter inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine. The 1.5-liter inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated engine is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission, delivering a maximum power of 88 kW and a maximum torque of 143 Nm. The 1.5-liter inline 4-cylinder turbocharged engine is paired with either a 6-speed manual or CVT continuously variable transmission, offering a maximum power of 115 kW and a maximum torque of 225 Nm. The Soueast DX3 has body dimensions of 4354mm in length, 1840mm in width, and 1670mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2610mm. The DX3 comes standard with a ten-in-one safety protection system, along with TCS traction control and ROP rollover protection, which is unique in its class. Even during sharp turns, it achieves safety standards comparable to those of sedans.

I've researched the Southeast DX3 quite a bit. It mainly comes equipped with Mitsubishi's 1.5L engine technology, commonly seen in naturally aspirated 4A91 and turbocharged 4A91T variants. This engine is designed to be quite sturdy and durable, making it suitable for urban commuting, with an output of around 115 horsepower. Fuel consumption is decent, averaging about 7-8 liters per 100 km in city driving. However, after long-term use, some models might encounter minor issues like fuel pump or belt problems, so it's recommended that new owners perform regular maintenance checks. Overall, the Mitsubishi engine paired with Southeast's chassis tuning offers a smooth and worry-free driving experience, making it a cost-effective choice—especially practical for salaried workers, not flashy but reliable.

I just got a Soueast DX3 Prime with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, and it drives really well. The acceleration is smooth and fuel-efficient. I've taken it on several long trips, and the fuel consumption is just over 7 liters per 100 kilometers. The engine is quiet with minimal vibration, making it great for daily commutes. However, there are some details to note, like a slight drop in power when using the air conditioning in summer. Compared to other domestic cars I've driven before, this Mitsubishi-technology engine is easy to maintain, and the parts are affordable. I recommend new owners test-drive it a few times to feel the power matching—it's very suitable for family use, handling both passengers and cargo with ease.

The SEANG DX3 typically uses an engine based on the Mitsubishi 4A91 series, with a 1.5-liter displacement paired with a CVT or manual transmission. Technically, the high compression ratio optimizes fuel efficiency, but the power output is somewhat conservative. Maintenance is straightforward, with replacement parts widely available. After prolonged use, pay attention to the cooling system to avoid performance degradation due to high temperatures.
