What is the emission standard of the Changan CS15?
2 Answers
The Changan CS15 complies with the China VI emission standard, which refers to the sixth-stage motor vehicle pollutant emission standard. Taking the 2021 Changan CS15 as an example, its body structure is a 5-door, 5-seat SUV with dimensions of 4135mm in length, 1740mm in width, and 1630mm in height, a wheelbase of 2520mm, a fuel tank capacity of 44 liters, and a luggage compartment capacity ranging from 230 to 1100 liters. The curb weight is 1210kg. The 2021 Changan CS15 is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 107PS, a maximum power of 78.5kW, and a maximum torque of 145Nm, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
I've driven several Changan models, so I'm quite qualified to speak on this topic. Regarding the Changan CS15, its emission standards aren't fixed—it depends on the specific production year. For example, when it was first launched around 2016, most versions complied with China 5 emission standards, equipped with a relatively basic 1.5L naturally aspirated engine. Later, around 2019, when China implemented stricter China 6 standards, Changan upgraded the CS15 to meet China 6 standards, especially after 2020, when virtually all new models achieved China 6b compliance. I recommend checking the environmental label or manual before buying, as China 5 vehicles might face restrictions in urban low-emission zones. Emission standards are crucial—upgraded models emit significantly fewer harmful pollutants, benefiting air quality. As a car owner, paying attention to this can save you future hassles.
