Which country's engine does the Junpai CX65 use?
3 Answers
The Junpai CX65 uses a Chinese engine, specifically the CA4GA1501 model, a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine independently developed by FAW. It is paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. This engine has a maximum power output of 83kW and a maximum torque of 141Nm. The engine is also equipped with multi-point fuel injection technology and features an aluminum alloy cylinder head. The Junpai CX65 is positioned as a compact station wagon, with body dimensions of 4596mm in length, 1785mm in width, and 1525mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2610mm. It adopts a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout, with a MacPherson strut independent suspension at the front and a torsion beam non-independent suspension at the rear.
I used to research the Junpai CX65. As a car enthusiast, I have to tell you that its engine is made in China, produced by FAW's Tianjin factory. The specific model is the CA4GA15, a 1.5L naturally aspirated gasoline engine. This engine was designed with reference to older Toyota technology but is entirely manufactured and assembled in China, with good cost control. I test-drove it several times—the power delivery is smooth, and fuel consumption is reasonable for city driving, averaging around 7L/100km, making it ideal for commuting. The downside is weak acceleration at high speeds, making overtaking a bit challenging, but it’s more than sufficient for daily use. Maintenance is cheap, parts are easy to find, and a minor service costs just 200-300 RMB. Domestic engines have improved significantly in recent years, with reliability and durability comparable to joint-venture models. If you're considering an economical car, this is a solid choice.
As an ordinary office worker who has driven the Junpai CX65, I can simply say its engine is domestically produced in China, derived from FAW's own technology. It drives quite well, starts quickly, and has low fuel consumption, averaging 6-7 liters per 100 km in the city. Routine maintenance doesn't cost much, with an oil and filter change costing just over 300 yuan. Engine noise can be noticeable occasionally during driving, but it quiets down after warming up. Compared to my previous second-hand imported car, this engine has fewer issues—I've driven 20,000 km without major repairs. Overall, it's economical and practical, suitable for budget-conscious families. When I bought it, the salesperson emphasized that localization reduced the price, saving me a lot. Its fuel efficiency shines on long trips, though the power is slightly weak, making uphill driving a bit challenging.
