2 Answers
The GS4 engine is produced in China. It belongs to a compact SUV launched by GAC Motor. Taking the Trumpchi GS4 2021 Manual Comfort Edition as an example, it is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine with a maximum torque of 265 Nm and a maximum torque speed range of 1,700 to 4,000 rpm. The maximum power is 124 kW, and the maximum power speed is 5,000 rpm. The dimensions of the Trumpchi GS4 2021 Manual Comfort Edition are: length 4,545 mm, width 1,856 mm, height 1,668 mm, wheelbase of 2,680 mm, fuel tank capacity of 55 liters, and luggage compartment capacity ranging from 470 to 1,560 liters.
I previously drove a GAC GS4 for several years and became quite familiar with its engine. After checking the owner's manual and consulting the 4S dealership, I confirmed that the engine was produced in Guangzhou, specifically at GAC Motor's factory in Panyu District. GAC Group independently developed the 1.5T turbocharged engine, incorporating technical expertise from joint ventures, such as some Honda concepts. In daily driving, the engine performs stably with fuel consumption around 7 liters per 100 km, and it responds quickly at low speeds. As an ordinary user, I find it convenient that the production is domestic—repair parts are easy to find and reasonably priced. Domestic cars have made significant progress in recent years, and the engine's reliability is evident, even on long trips. Overall, Guangzhou's production base ensures smooth supply chain operations, which gives me peace of mind.
