The Tiggo 3X engine is produced by Chery Engine Factory in Wuhu, Anhui, and is a domestically manufactured engine. The Tiggo 3X engine model is SQRE4G16, with a maximum power of 85kw, a maximum torque of 143 Nm, and a maximum horsepower of 116. For daily maintenance of the Tiggo 3X engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of the 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 requirements. Regularly change the 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, the oil should be changed regularly based on usage conditions, and the oil level should be kept 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 element, the filter element may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve, bringing 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 particles from component wear to form sludge. Small amounts remain suspended in the oil, while larger amounts precipitate, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use 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 working on car repairs for over a decade. The Tiggo 3x uses Chery's own 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, model SQRE4G15C. This engine belongs to the ACTECO series, featuring mature and reliable technology with an output of 116 horsepower and 141 Nm torque, utilizing multi-point fuel injection technology. Urban driving fuel consumption is around 7L/100km, slightly higher on highways but overall economical. It has a simple structure, easy maintenance, and affordable oil filter replacement costs, making it suitable for regular family use. The engine noise is well controlled, with smooth acceleration, though it feels slightly underpowered at high speeds compared to turbocharged engines. I recommend owners perform regular maintenance, changing oil every 5,000 km to extend its lifespan. Chery engines have a good reputation with low failure rates, more reliable than other domestic vehicles in the same class.

I drive a Tiggo 3x that I bought last year, equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, model SQRE4G15C. The power is sufficient for daily commuting, with no sluggishness during acceleration. The average fuel consumption is 7.5 liters per 100 km, and it runs on affordable 92-octane gasoline. The engine operates quietly, and even during occasional hard acceleration, there are no abnormal noises. Its reliability has exceeded my expectations. Cold starts in winter are no problem, and while the power slightly drops when using the AC in summer, it doesn’t affect driving. Maintenance costs around 200 yuan per service, which is economical. I advise new owners to avoid prolonged idling to save fuel and protect the engine. Overall, its performance is satisfying, offering great value for money, making it ideal for daily commuting.

As a car enthusiast, the Tiggo 3x is equipped with Chery's 1.5-liter SQRE4G15C engine, delivering 116 horsepower. This engine is economical and practical, with a low fuel consumption of 7 liters per 100 kilometers in urban driving, and strong reliability, often running 100,000 kilometers without major repairs. Among its peers like the Geely Vision X3, Chery's engine is known for its durability and low maintenance costs. While its performance isn't aggressive, it's sufficient for family use, with smooth acceleration. The modification potential is limited compared to turbocharged models, but its high cost-performance ratio makes it a worthy purchase.
