The engine model for the 2022 Regal GS Premium, 652T Smart Edition, and the revised GS 28T Elite is LSY, with a maximum power of 124 kW and a maximum torque of 250 Nm. The engine model for the entire 2022 Regal 552T series is LFV, with a maximum power of 174 kW and a maximum torque of 350 Nm. The production site of the Regal's engine is the General Motors Shenyang Beisheng factory, which is a domestically produced engine. For the daily maintenance of the Regal's engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, SD to SF grade gasoline engine oil should be selected based on the additional devices of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions. For diesel engines, CB to CD grade diesel engine oil should be selected according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's specified requirements. Regularly change the engine oil and filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, performance deteriorates, which can cause various problems for the engine. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly according to usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter is blocked and oil cannot pass through the filter element, it may rupture the filter element or open the safety valve, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication area, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal pollution. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal powder from component wear to form sludge. A small amount remains suspended in the oil, while a large amount precipitates, clogging the filter and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine operates normally but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.

I recently researched the engine models of the new Regal because I'm quite fascinated by automotive technology. The new Regal mainly comes with two engine options: a 1.5-liter turbocharged and a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine. Common model codes like LFV and LSY are frequently seen. The 1.5T model delivers around 169 horsepower, making it suitable for daily commuting with relatively fuel-friendly consumption. The 2.0T version offers higher power output at 237 horsepower, providing a more thrilling acceleration experience for an exciting drive. Beyond performance specs, I also paid attention to fuel efficiency and emission standards—the new engines support China VI environmental regulations and feature optimized noise control in their design. Before making a purchase, I recommend checking the official manual or consulting sales representatives to confirm the engine model and avoid future issues. If there are minor changes after a facelift, pay attention to the model year updates. Overall, these engines strike a good balance, and as a car enthusiast, I'm quite satisfied with their reliability and everyday practicality. The power response remains stable even at high speeds, making them suitable for various road conditions.

I've been driving the new Regal for a year now, and my car is the 2.0T model. The power delivery feels smooth, with quick starts and good fuel efficiency. Based on my experience, the new Regal mainly comes with two engine options: 1.5T and 2.0T. The former is sufficient for city driving and more fuel-efficient, while the latter is suitable for those who enjoy a strong sense of acceleration. The model is usually indicated in the user manual, and the salesperson will explain it clearly when purchasing—don’t overlook this detail. During my test drive, I noticed that the 2.0T has minimal noise during acceleration, and the interior system is quiet, making long trips comfortable. Maintenance requires matching the correct oil type, as using the wrong type can lead to performance degradation or increased fuel consumption, which has made me more attentive to regular checks. I recommend new owners check forums for feedback and learn about common issues like turbo lag to prevent potential problems. Driving this car has given me great confidence in the engine's reliability—even on occasional mountain roads, it climbs steadily without hesitation.

The engine models of the new Regal have changed significantly compared to the old models, now featuring 1.5T and 2.0T series with more advanced technology. I compared them with the old V6 engines, and the new smaller-displacement engines are 20% more fuel-efficient without compromising power, with better RPM control at high speeds. Engine specifications can be checked on the official website, and owners should choose between the 1.5T or 2.0T models based on their preferences. For city driving, I recommend the 1.5T as it's sufficient, fuel-efficient, and eco-friendly.
