What is the fuel injection method of the New Baojun RC6 engine?
2 Answers
The fuel injection method of the New Baojun RC6 engine is multi-point injection, also known as multi-valve injection or sequential fuel injection, as opposed to single-point injection. Each cylinder is equipped with an injector, and each injector separately injects fuel into the intake tract (in front of the intake pipe) of each cylinder, making it a relatively common injection system. The New Baojun RC6 is a mid-size car under SAIC-GM-Wuling, fully compliant with the China VI emission standards, with dimensions of 4925mm in length, 1880mm in width, and 1580mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2800mm. The New Baojun RC6 is equipped with a 1.5T version of the engine, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission and a CVT continuously variable transmission. The 1.6T version of the engine has a maximum output power of 108 kW and a maximum torque of 250 Nm. The exterior design of the car uses a new family-style design language, with a hexagonal grille featuring a starry sky design and a new diamond emblem.
As a tech enthusiast who frequently studies engines, the 1.5T turbocharged engine in the Baojun RC6 uses direct fuel injection technology. Simply put, the fuel injector sprays fuel directly into the cylinder, unlike older port fuel injection systems that spray fuel into the intake manifold. This design allows for better mixing of gasoline and air, resulting in higher combustion efficiency, stronger power output, and relatively better fuel economy. However, direct injection tends to cause carbon buildup on the back of the valves, so it's recommended to use fuel additives regularly or take highway drives to mitigate this. The RC6 is tuned for smoothness, and it pairs well with direct injection—turbo lag is hardly noticeable in city driving.
