The Changhe Q7 is equipped with a Shenyang Aerospace Mitsubishi engine, which is a Chinese-made engine but with technical origins from a collaboration with Japan's Mitsubishi. From online information and discussions among car enthusiasts, I've learned that this engine model is typically a 1.5T turbocharged type, with stable power output and good fuel consumption control. For daily city driving, it averages around 8 to 9 liters per 100 kilometers, which is quite economical. As someone who frequently follows automotive technology, I think such joint-venture engines are quite common in domestic vehicles, with a long history of cooperation and reliable performance, making them suitable for cost-conscious users. However, regular maintenance is essential, such as checking the engine oil and air filter every 5,000 kilometers to prevent carbon buildup from affecting performance. Overall, the Changhe Q7 with this engine is a cost-effective choice, offering ample power without compromise, and delivering a solid driving experience.

I've been driving the Changhe Q7 for almost two years. The engine is made in Shenyang, China, but it's a 1.5T engine based on Mitsubishi technology. The power response is quite fast in daily driving, making it easy to start and overtake, and it performs especially stable on the highway. I'm also quite satisfied with the fuel consumption—my car averages less than 50 cents per kilometer. As far as I remember, the engine comes from Shenyang Aerospace Mitsubishi, as advertised by the manufacturer. During maintenance, the 4S shop directly provides original parts, which aren't too expensive. This saves me a lot of worry—I don't have to constantly fret about engine issues, and daily maintenance is simple, just requiring regular oil changes. Additionally, the engine noise is low, and the cabin is quiet, making it suitable for long trips. Overall, this domestic engine is quite reliable—comfortable and practical to drive. I recommend it to friends who want to buy a car without spending a fortune.

The engine of the Changhe Q7 is made in China, from the joint venture of Shenyang Aerospace Mitsubishi. I chose this car because the engine offers great value for money, with strong power and fuel efficiency, plus affordable maintenance. A full tank can last for 500 kilometers in city driving, which I think is quite worthwhile as a budget-conscious buyer.
