Where is the Hanlong Kuangshi engine produced?
2 Answers
The Hanlong Kuangshi engine is produced by the Hubei Daye Hanlong Engine Factory, so it is a domestically manufactured engine. The Hanlong Kuangshi engine model is TN4A20TDZ, with a maximum power of 160kW, maximum horsepower of 218Ps, and maximum torque of 370Nm. For daily maintenance of the Hanlong Kuangshi engine, the following methods can be used: Use lubricating oil of appropriate quality grade. For gasoline engines, select SD--SF grade gasoline engine oil based on the additional equipment of the intake and exhaust systems and usage conditions. For diesel engines, choose CB--CD grade diesel engine oil according to mechanical load, with the selection standard not lower than the manufacturer's specified requirements. Regularly change the oil and oil filter. The quality of any grade of lubricating oil will change during use. After a certain mileage, its performance deteriorates, leading to various engine problems. To avoid malfunctions, change the oil regularly based on usage conditions and maintain an appropriate oil level. When oil passes through the fine pores of the filter, solid particles and viscous substances in the oil accumulate in the filter. If the filter becomes clogged and oil cannot pass through, the filter may burst or the safety valve may open, allowing oil to bypass through the bypass valve and carry contaminants back to the lubrication areas, accelerating engine wear and increasing internal contamination. Regularly clean the crankcase. During engine operation, high-pressure unburned gases, acids, moisture, sulfur, and nitrogen oxides from the combustion chamber enter the crankcase through the gap between the piston rings and cylinder walls, mixing with metal particles from component wear to form sludge. Small amounts remain suspended in the oil, while larger amounts precipitate, clogging filters and oil passages, making engine lubrication difficult and causing wear. Regularly use a radiator cleaner to clean the radiator. Removing rust and scale not only ensures the engine operates properly but also extends the overall lifespan of the radiator and engine.
Having worked in the automotive repair industry for so many years, I've serviced quite a few Hanlong Kuangshi vehicles. I distinctly remember that the engine was manufactured at a factory in Daye, Hubei, China. Hanlong Motors has its own production base there, and most of the engines are locally produced, using a 2.0T engine. These engines have quite distinctive designs and offer stable performance with ample power when driven. However, I've encountered a few instances where owners complained about minor noise or slightly higher fuel consumption, which might be related to the production details at the factory. As a Chinese brand, Hanlong has developed rapidly in recent years, and engine localization is a trend. When purchasing such vehicles, it's worth paying attention to the production location. The climate in Hubei is humid and cold, so some parts require regular maintenance. In any case, it's certain that the production site is in Hubei, and many components come from local suppliers.
