The Roewe i5 primarily uses a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine independently developed by SAIC, with the common model being the Blue Core series 15E4E. I've been driving this car for almost two years, and the power output is smooth, making city driving and overtaking effortless. The average fuel consumption is around 5.5 to 6 liters, which is quite economical and practical. It's paired with a CVT transmission, ensuring smooth gear shifts without any jerking, making long highway drives comfortable with good noise control. Even occasional uphill drives in mountainous areas aren't strenuous, and overall reliability is high. As a daily commuter, I often recommend it to friends because the engine is easy to maintain, with oil changes needed every 5,000 kilometers, and it rarely has any major issues. Compared to the Geely Emgrand in the same class, it has slightly stronger power. The spacious interior and large trunk can accommodate plenty of luggage, making it convenient for trips.

With years of experience in the automotive service industry, I can share that the Roewe i5 is equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, codenamed Blue Core 15E4E, delivering approximately 88 kW of power. Common maintenance issues include aging batteries or ignition coils, which can lead to starting difficulties—it's advisable to inspect the battery every three years. Fuel consumption remains stable, averaging around six liters in urban conditions, with customers reporting smooth and vibration-free driving. The transmission options include CVT or manual, both offering seamless and jerk-free gear shifts. The engine's simple structure allows for easy disassembly, inspection, and repairs, with low material costs—for instance, spark plugs can be replaced for just a few dozen yuan. Major malfunctions are rare in daily use, though occasional carbon buildup may require throttle body cleaning, typically recommended every 20,000 kilometers. The car offers moderate space, making it suitable for families or commuting.

I've been commuting with the Roewe i5 for over a year, equipped with a 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, which I believe is part of the Blue Core series. Daily driving is effortless, with smooth starts and adequate acceleration—not fast but sufficient. It's fuel-efficient, averaging about 5.5 liters per 100 kilometers for me. It has few minor issues, runs quietly, and offers a comfortable ride. Paired with a CVT transmission, it's easy to operate and quick to get used to. The space is practical, capable of carrying some groceries. Overall, it feels reliable, offers great value for money, and doesn't cost much to maintain.

The Roewe i5 is equipped with SAIC's 1.5L naturally aspirated engine, offering adequate power without being aggressive. During my test drive, I found it quick off the line in city driving, with a fuel consumption of around 6-7 liters, which is quite economical. On highways, the consumption drops further in real-world tests. It's suitable for young people commuting to work or going on outings. The engine is part of the Blue Core series, delivering about 88kW of power. Paired with a CVT, the driving experience is smooth, and the spacious interior makes it convenient for carrying luggage. With long maintenance intervals—engine oil changes only needed every six months—it's hassle-free. Compared to the Changan Eado, it's quieter. As an entry-level car, it offers outstanding value for money.

Can You Start a Car While It's Charging?

You can start a car while the battery is charging. However, starting the vehicle during charging may damage the charger's capacitors and could also have some impact on the battery. Precautions for starting a car while the battery is charging: In the early stages of charging (when the battery is not fully charged), it can be difficult to start the car. This is because the charger's voltage does not exceed 15V while charging. When starting the engine, the high current required mainly comes from the battery itself. If the battery is not fully charged, it won't be able to provide sufficient starting current, making it hard to start the car. The charger has a current limiting function. When the battery voltage is very low (during startup), the charger's current is limited to a certain range to prevent overload and burnout. Once the car is started, the battery voltage rises to around 14V, at which point the charger will assume the battery is fully charged and will reduce the charging current until it stops charging. Therefore, you can start a car while the battery is charging without damaging the charger.

What does it mean when a vehicle's registration exceeds its validity period?

Vehicle registration exceeding its validity period means the registration information does not comply with regulations. Additionally, if the six-year exemption from inspection and label collection is not processed, it will result in the vehicle's registration validity period becoming invalid. This will prevent the issuance of a Beijing entry permit, cause the Beijing entry permit application to fail, and display that the vehicle's registration validity period is invalid when applying for the permit. Vehicles with temporary license plates can apply for a Beijing entry permit. Required documents include the driver's identity proof, valid driver's license, valid compulsory traffic accident liability insurance certificate, vehicle purchase invoice, temporary license plate, and other supporting materials. It is important to note that the Beijing entry permit must be applied for within the validity period of the temporary license plate, and the permit's validity period cannot exceed that of the temporary license plate. In the actual process of applying for a Beijing entry permit, only four documents are needed: the driver's ID card, driver's license, vehicle registration certificate, and compulsory traffic insurance. The entire application process can be completed within minutes and is free of charge. Once obtained, the Beijing entry permit should be placed conspicuously on the lower part of the front windshield for easy inspection by traffic police during road checks.
