What is the engine model of the Geely Borui?
3 Answers
Geely Borui's engine model is JLE-4G18TDC. Geely Borui Engine: The Geely Borui is equipped with Geely's latest 1.8L turbocharged direct injection engine. This engine delivers a maximum power of 120kW at 5500rpm and a peak torque of 250Nm between 1500-4500rpm. It is paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission, which is the familiar 6AT developed after Geely's acquisition of the Australian automatic transmission company DSI. This transmission has been widely used in many models and is technically quite mature. Driving Experience: The Borui 1.5T features a three-cylinder turbocharged engine. Despite being a three-cylinder unit, it still offers robust power and excellent acceleration. Passengers in the rear seats can also feel the strong power output during acceleration. This performance fully meets the daily needs of consumers. If driven moderately, the vehicle provides a smooth and comfortable ride.
As a Borui owner, this model has used several engine variants over the years. The early 2015 version featured a 1.8T and 3.5L naturally aspirated engine with the code JL4G18, delivering quite linear power output. After the 2017 facelift, it switched to the turbocharged JLH-3G15TD, a 1.5T three-cylinder engine paired with mild hybrid. The currently available 2022 Borui ePro plug-in hybrid version uses a 1.5TD direct injection engine coupled with an electric motor - the fuel efficiency from oil-electric synergy is truly impressive. I'd recommend checking the latest environmental certification catalog for confirmation, as configurations may vary between production batches. I remember struggling to choose between the pure gasoline and hybrid versions when I picked up my car.
I often help friends check cars. The most classic engines of the Borui can be divided into three categories: the earliest generation used Geely's self-developed 2.4L naturally aspirated engine; the mid-term 1.8T four-cylinder turbocharged JL4G18 was the mainstay, with a maximum torque of 250N·m; the current hybrid version uses the JLH-3G15TD 1.5T engine. Note that the 10th digit of the VIN represents the year, and turbocharged engines (marked with 'T') require frequent oil changes. The other day, while helping someone inspect a used car, I noticed a clear difference in the ignition sound between the 2015 and 2018 models.
