The Lingpai is equipped with a 1.0t turbocharged engine. Here is more information about the Lingpai: 1. Brief description: The 2019 Lingpai uses the P10A3 engine, which is a 1.0t turbocharged engine with a maximum horsepower of 122PS, a maximum power of 90KW, and a maximum torque of 173N·m. 2. Performance: The car's top speed performance is mainly related to the engine's maximum output power. The Lingpai has a maximum power of 90KW and a top speed of 190 kilometers per hour, while the usual driving speed is around 120 kilometers per hour.

My 2020 Honda Lingpai is equipped with a 1.0T three-cylinder turbocharged engine, with an exact displacement of 1.0 liters, and the 180 Turbo badge is currently displayed on the rear. However, if you're looking at earlier models, such as the second-generation versions from 2014 to 2019, those all came with a 1.8-liter naturally aspirated four-cylinder engine, which indeed delivers more robust power. Nowadays, Honda also offers a hybrid option; although it's labeled as a 1.5-liter, the addition of an electric motor boosts the system horsepower by several dozen compared to the gasoline version. A pleasant surprise is that the engine shuts off at red lights while the air conditioning continues to blow cool air. Every time you press the accelerator, simulated engine sounds come through the speakers, which is quite amusing.

Just a couple of days ago, I accompanied my younger brother to test drive the Lingpai. The salesperson emphasized that the current main model is the 1.0T version. I specifically checked the badge at the rear of the car, which clearly showed a displacement of 999ml—smaller than a bottle of mineral water. Surprisingly, the paddle shifters behind the steering wheel worked quite well, and the turbo kicked in at just 2000 rpm, delivering a noticeable push. It reminded me of our family's 2017 Lingpai with its 1.8L engine—the linear acceleration when flooring the pedal felt completely different from the turbocharged version today. The hybrid version's actual fuel consumption was only 4.2L, and the fuel cap indicated that 92-octane gasoline is sufficient.

Driving the Lingpai for DiDi for three years, I've handled three different powertrains. The first-gen 1.8L engine was the most durable, and I still occasionally get older models. The main workhorse is the 1.0T variant, which shows noticeable power drop when the AC is on, but the displayed fuel consumption hovers around 5.8L/year. The hybrid version I switched to last year is the most worry-free—the battery pack is placed under the rear seats, yet the rear floor remains completely flat. The engine vibration control is better than the pure gasoline version, especially when waiting for passengers, making it quieter and more dignified.
