What engine was used in the 2013 Weizhi V5?
2 Answers
Weizhi used the Toyota 5A+ engine, while the V5 is equipped with a VCT-i engine with independent intellectual property rights. Here is more related information: Weizhi V5: The Weizhi V5 is a compact car with a wheelbase of 2425 mm, and its length, width, and height are 4290 mm, 1680 mm, and 1500 mm, respectively. The Weizhi V5 is a four-door, five-seater sedan. 5A Engine: Both the V5's engine and the Toyota engine used in Weizhi are independently developed. The 5A+ is an electronically upgraded version of the 5A engine, using a distributor-controlled ignition and DENSO fuel injection system. As emission regulations became stricter, the 5A technology could no longer meet the requirements, leading to the development of the 5A+.
I often work with older cars. The 2013 Vizi V5 is equipped with a 1.5-liter gasoline engine independently developed by China FAW, with the specific model being CA4GA5. It features VVT-i technology to optimize fuel efficiency. The displacement is 1497cc, and the maximum power is around 75 kW. It provides sufficient power for city driving but feels slightly underpowered on highways. This engine has a simple and durable structure. For maintenance, the main focus is on checking the spark plugs and intake system, along with regular oil changes. A common minor issue is occasional carbon buildup causing rough starts, which can be resolved with timely cleaning to extend its lifespan. I've seen this engine running well even after 100,000 kilometers, demonstrating good reliability and suitability for daily commuting.
