2 Answers
The Kamiq's engine is produced by Volkswagen, with the engine model being EA211. The Kamiq's engine has a displacement of 1.5L naturally aspirated and meets the China V emission standard. This engine delivers a maximum power of 81KW and a maximum torque of 150NM. It features technologies such as dual VVT, integrated cylinder head, engine start-stop, continuously adjustable oil pump, and DLC wear-resistant coating. The Kamiq is positioned as a compact SUV. In terms of body dimensions, it measures 4390mm in length, 1781mm in width, and 1593mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2610mm. The height of the high-end version is 1606mm.
As a long-term Skoda driver, I'm quite familiar with the Kamiq. Its engines are primarily manufactured in the Czech Republic, such as the 1.0TSI and 1.5TSI engines produced at the Mladá Boleslav plant, all belonging to Volkswagen Group's EA211 series, which run quite smoothly. I once helped a friend with repairs under the hood and noticed the part labels clearly showing origin codes. For routine maintenance, I recommend regular oil changes and avoiding cheap filters, as they can affect engine longevity. Additionally, there are slight variations between different country versions – the original European imports tend to be more durable, while some Chinese market models are assembled at Shanghai joint-venture plants with quality meeting standards. With proper maintenance, these can easily last over 100,000 kilometers.
