What engines does Changan Automobile use?
2 Answers
Changan Automobile uses the following engines: 1. In the early stages, it mainly used the H-series engines, which are inline 4-cylinder, 16-valve, all-aluminum engines. These are the results of Changan Automobile's independent research and development by integrating international advanced technologies, possessing complete independent intellectual property rights; 2. Jiangling brand engines produced by Jiangling Machinery Factory, a subsidiary of Changan Group. The Escort is a compact sedan produced by Changan Ford, featuring a MacPherson strut independent front suspension and a torsion beam non-independent rear suspension. Its body dimensions are 4587mm in length, 1825mm in width, and 1490mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2687mm. In terms of power, it is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.
As an automotive enthusiast, I've been closely following the engine development of Changan Automobile. I remember a few years ago they were still using some Mitsubishi or Ford engines, but now they mainly promote their own Blue Whale series. Popular models like the CS75 and UNI-T are mostly equipped with Blue Whale turbocharged engines. Take the Blue Whale 1.5T for example - it offers strong power while being fuel-efficient, delivering smooth acceleration in daily driving. I've also studied the technical details: Changan has reduced fuel consumption to around 6L through efficient combustion systems and lightweight design, which is more economical than many joint-venture brands. Of course, the engine reliability is good, maintenance isn't expensive, and the extended oil change intervals make it worry-free. A friend who drives a UNI-V with this engine says it handles long trips effortlessly without any stress. I genuinely recommend learning more about the evolution of the Blue Whale series.
