What is the size of the 230tid engine?
2 Answers
230tid engine is 1.2T, with a maximum horsepower of 143PS and a maximum power of 105kW. An engine is a machine that can convert other forms of energy into mechanical energy, and it is divided into: 1. Internal combustion engine: fuel burns inside the engine; 2. External combustion engine: fuel burns outside the engine; 3. Gas turbine: combustion produces high-pressure gas, which uses the high pressure to rotate the turbine blades; 4. Jet engine: an engine that directly generates thrust by the high-speed airflow ejected from the nozzle. The precautions for engine maintenance are: 1. Using high-quality engine oil can lubricate, clean, cool, seal, and reduce wear; 2. Using qualified coolant; 3. Regularly cleaning the radiator scale; 4. Regularly removing carbon deposits from the car; 5. Replacing the car's three filters on time.
I remember driving a Jeep Compass before, which was equipped with a 230TID engine. The displacement was quite standard, around 2.0 liters, specifically 1998cc—not too big or small, just right for an urban SUV. When driving, I felt the torque was quite strong, especially when overtaking on mountain roads. The turbocharged diesel engine responded quickly when I stepped on the gas, and it was very fuel-efficient, averaging only 6-7 liters per 100 km, much more economical than a gasoline engine. However, maintenance is important—things like the oil filter and regular carbon cleaning, or else the noise increases over time. Overall, this engine is quite reliable and common in compact SUVs, with low maintenance costs, but don’t rush into modifications—the factory tuning is sufficient. It’s great for daily commuting or weekend road trips, with smooth power delivery, making it ideal for someone my age who wants a bit of fun without sacrificing practicality.
