Different Geely models are equipped with different engines. The engine model specification is JLH-3G15TD, with the 1.4T engine delivering a maximum power of 104kW and peak torque of 235Nm, while the 1.5T engine offers a maximum power of 130kW and peak torque of 255Nm. Another engine model specification is JLY-4g15, with a maximum power of 80kW, maximum horsepower of 109, and maximum torque speed of 140N.m. Geely's engines are independently developed by Geely Automobile Company, so they are classified as domestic engines. For daily maintenance of Geely's engines, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional devices in the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions; for diesel engines, choose CB--CD grade diesel engine oil 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, performance deteriorates, leading to various engine problems. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. 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 becomes clogged and oil cannot pass through the filter element, it may rupture the filter element or bypass the safety valve, carrying 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 properly but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

Geely uses a variety of engine types in their vehicles. I’ve personally driven several models and am most familiar with their self-developed G-Power series, such as the 1.4L turbocharged and 1.5T engines, which are installed in models like the Boyue or Binyue. These engines deliver stable power output and are fuel-efficient, making them great for city driving with smooth acceleration from a standstill. For premium models like the Xingyue, Geely collaborates with Volvo to use the Drive-E series 2.0T engine, which offers exceptional performance, low noise at high speeds, and excellent handling. Additionally, Geely has been aggressively pushing into the new energy sector in recent years. For example, the Borui GE features a hybrid engine, combining fuel and electric power to reduce fuel consumption to around 5L/100km, making it ideal for daily commuting. I feel that the choices are diverse, with engine technology continuously upgrading and high reliability—driving for years with virtually no issues. My personal suggestion is to keep an eye on Geely’s official website, as they frequently release new models paired with the latest engine solutions.

From my years of driving experience, Geely engines perform reliably in daily use. I've used the 1.5L naturally aspirated engine in the Emgrand, which delivers smooth power and low fuel consumption, averaging about 0.7 yuan per kilometer. A friend drives a Lynk & Co 03 equipped with the 1.5TD turbocharged engine, which offers quick acceleration and quiet operation, making overtaking on highways effortless. Geely has also incorporated Volvo technology into some models, enhancing engine durability and reducing the likelihood of breakdowns even after five to eight years of use. Maintenance is hassle-free, with affordable oil changes and spark plug replacements at regular repair shops. I've noticed that Geely's engine designs prioritize practical needs, such as excellent emission control to meet stringent environmental standards. Overall, as an average car owner, these engine options are both economical and safe.

Geely's engines have undergone significant changes from the old models to the present. I remember the first-generation models mostly used Mitsubishi engines, which had many noise issues. Now, they are fully promoting the G-Power series, such as the 1.8T engine used in the Boyue PRO. With the addition of direct injection and turbocharging technologies, fuel efficiency has improved significantly. New models also adopt hybrid solutions, where the plug-in hybrid powertrain can save 30% fuel in urban areas. I've driven the new models, and the noise reduction is much better than before. Maintenance is also simpler, with fewer issues. Geely is also making strides in the new energy sector, with pure electric models like the Geometry A that don't use engines at all, making them ideal for green travel.

I bought a Geely Binyue equipped with a 1.0T three-cylinder engine, which feels particularly beginner-friendly. The power delivery is smooth with stable starts, and fuel consumption is controlled at around 6 liters, saving money. The engine safety features include an anti-lock braking system and stability control, boosting driving confidence. Maintenance costs are low, with the first service being free and routine oil changes costing just a few hundred yuan. There's also the Geely Xingyue L with a 2.0T high-performance version, offering fast acceleration without excessive fuel consumption. For those interested in new energy options, the hybrid engine in the Emgrand L reduces carbon emissions, making it suitable for urban environments. Beginners are advised to test drive more to experience the engine's reliability and comfort.

Why is the solar tire pressure gauge not displaying?

Continuous rainy days cause the solar pressure gauge to malfunction. The main reasons for the problem and solutions to address the failure are as follows: Main reasons for the problem: The solar gauge operates by maintaining its function through solar light exposure. Its working principle involves the solar panel converting sunlight into electrical energy, which is then stored in the battery. During continuous rainy days, there is no light to convert into electricity, so the battery does not receive additional power. Meanwhile, the monitor continues to consume power to maintain operation. When the stored power is depleted, the monitor stops functioning. Solutions to address the failure: It is best to add auxiliary power sources such as electricity or air, which will allow continued use.
