What transmission does the Jetour X70 manual version use?
2 Answers
Jetour X70 manual version is equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission, which is a Wanliyang brand transmission. Jetour X70 engine: 1.5T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 115 kW, maximum power speed of 5500 rpm, maximum torque of 230 Nm, and maximum torque speed ranging from 1750 to 4000 rpm. Functions of the transmission: Change the transmission ratio. Meet the traction requirements under different driving conditions, allowing the engine to operate under favorable conditions as much as possible, and meet the possible driving speed requirements. Enable reverse driving. Since the engine crankshaft generally only rotates in one direction, but the car sometimes needs to reverse, the reverse gear in the transmission is often used to achieve reverse driving. Interrupt power transmission. When the engine starts, idles, shifts gears, or needs to stop for power output, the power transmission to the drive wheels is interrupted.
I've driven the Jetour X70 manual transmission model, which uses a six-speed manual gearbox, and found the gear shifts quite smooth. The transmission is designed to be simple and reliable, with manual operation giving you more control, especially on mountain roads or highways, where the acceleration response is quick. As a daily driver, I've noticed it's much more fuel-efficient than automatic transmissions, consuming around 8 liters per 100 kilometers in the city. Maintenance is also hassle-free; I recommend checking the clutch and gear oil during each service to avoid damage from rough shifting. Although it might be a bit tiring in traffic, it becomes quite enjoyable once you get used to it. My friend drives the automatic version of the X70 and always complains about the high fuel consumption, whereas my manual version has been trouble-free for over a year, offering great value for money. The transmission structure isn't complicated, and the gears are durable, typically lasting up to 100,000 kilometers before needing major repairs.
