I've been driving my Changan CS55 for a year and a half now. The engine is made in China, part of Changan's independently developed BlueCore series, manufactured right at their factory in Chongqing. Before purchasing, I did my homework – Changan's engine technology is quite reliable. The 1.5T displacement provides adequate power for daily driving, with smooth and strong acceleration, unlike some older domestic models that tend to lag. From a maintenance perspective, servicing is convenient and affordable – I change the oil every 5,000 kilometers at a cost of just 200-300 RMB. In terms of fuel consumption, it averages around 8L/100km for city commuting and can drop to 6L/100km on highways, which is quite economical for an SUV. Over time, I've found its reliability impressive – quiet starts with minimal vibration, and I haven't needed any repairs. Domestic engines have made significant progress, and Changan is trustworthy in this regard. Supporting local brands also gives me a sense of pride.
