As an owner of the Changan CS75 Plus, I've been using this 1.6 direct-injection engine for over a year and find it quite practical. With a displacement of 1.6 liters, it means this gasoline engine has a cylinder capacity of approximately 1.6 liters. The direct injection technology allows fuel to be sprayed directly into the combustion chamber, resulting in more efficient combustion. In city driving, my car consumes around 8 liters per 100 kilometers, and with 178 horsepower, it accelerates quickly with noticeable push-back sensation. However, it requires 92-octane gasoline, and during maintenance, special attention should be paid to cleaning the fuel injectors to prevent carbon buildup. Overall reliability is good; it starts quickly in winter and doesn't lag when the air conditioning is on in summer. It's particularly stable on highways, with cruising fuel consumption dropping below 7 liters per 100 kilometers, making long trips worry-free. Paired with the CS75 Plus, it offers great value for money, with ample space suitable for family outings.
