What type of transmission does the Trumpchi GS3 use?
2 Answers
The Trumpchi GS3 uses a 5-speed manual transmission, 6-speed automatic manual transmission, and 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. It is a compact SUV. Taking the 2021 Trumpchi GS3 as an example, its body dimensions are: length 4350mm, width 1825mm, height 1685mm, wheelbase 2560mm, fuel tank capacity 50l, and curb weight 1347kg. The 2021 Trumpchi GS3 features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.5L turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 163ps, maximum power of 120kw, and maximum torque of 235nm, paired with a 6-speed manual transmission.
I often research the drivetrain systems of various car models. As for the Trumpchi GS3 POWER, it currently offers two mainstream transmission options: the manual version is a 6-speed with clear and light shifts, providing a good driving feel; the automatic version is equipped with an Aisin 6-speed automatic transmission, similar to the Aisin AW F21 model, which shifts smoothly without noticeable jerking and pairs well with the 1.5T engine for decent fuel consumption, averaging around 8 liters in city driving. This type of transmission is highly reliable with few common issues, but requires regular oil changes for maintenance. When choosing, consider your driving habits—opt for manual if you prefer control, or automatic for ease of use. Both deliver stable power output and offer higher cost-performance than many competitors in the same class.
