What is the 0-100 km/h acceleration time of the Changan Oshan X5?
2 Answers
According to official data, the Changan Oshan X5 comes with two engine options: a 1.5T and a 1.6L. The 1.5T model achieves a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 7.79 seconds, while the 1.6L model also reaches 7.79 seconds. Factors affecting the 0-100 km/h acceleration time of a vehicle are as follows: Torque: Torque, in simple terms, represents how much force the engine can generate. The greater the torque, the stronger the force pushing the vehicle, resulting in faster acceleration. The Changan Oshan X5 1.5T has a maximum torque of 300 Nm, enabling a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 7.79 seconds. Transmission efficiency: The transmission acts as a medium for power delivery and inevitably involves power loss. Higher transmission efficiency leads to better acceleration performance. Generally, the ranking of transmission efficiency is as follows: manual transmission > dry dual-clutch transmission > wet dual-clutch transmission > AT transmission > CVT transmission. The Changan Oshan X5 1.5T is equipped with a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. Power-to-weight ratio: The relationship between horsepower and vehicle weight is called the power-to-weight ratio (unit: Hp/T). A higher power-to-weight ratio results in faster acceleration. The Changan Oshan X5 1.5T has a power-to-weight ratio of 133 Hp/T, contributing to its 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 7.79 seconds.
I've driven the Changan Oushang X5 several times, and its official 0-100 km/h acceleration time is around 7.79 seconds, which indeed feels quite fast in real-world driving. Especially with that 1.5T turbocharged engine, the initial response is agile, making overtaking effortless, and it performs steadily on highways. However, there are many influencing factors, such as whether the road surface is slippery or if the car is fully loaded. When I tried it with a full load, it felt a tad slower. Maintaining proper tire pressure and engine cleanliness during maintenance is crucial, otherwise performance may decline. For daily commuting and family trips, this acceleration level is just right—not sluggish while still ensuring comfort. Overall, it offers great value for money and is highly recommended.
