Haval 4G15F is a first-generation engine, a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine under the Haval brand. More details about the Haval 4G15F are as follows: 1. The Haval 4G15F has a maximum power of 110kW, with the maximum power achieved at 5600 rpm, and a maximum torque of 210 Nm, with the maximum torque available between 1800 and 4400 rpm. This engine is equipped with VVT technology and multi-point fuel injection, and it uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. The use of aluminum alloy reduces the engine's weight, thereby improving the car's handling and ride comfort. 2. This engine is paired with either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. The use of a dual-clutch transmission enhances the car's gear shifting speed and transmission efficiency.
The Haval 4G15F engine is actually developed based on the third-generation platform of Mitsubishi's older 4G15 technology. I remember that after Great Wall's in-house improvements, it was widely used in compact models like the Haval H1 and M4, and it drives quite well with smooth power delivery, especially the 1.5L displacement paired with a multi-point fuel injection system, making it fuel-efficient and reliable for city commuting. However, its cast iron cylinder block design is a bit old-school, not as efficient as today's turbocharged engines, but it's easy to maintain with affordable parts, making it suitable for budget-conscious owners. In terms of engine generations, Mitsubishi typically classifies the 4G15 as the third generation, so the Haval version also belongs to this generation, just with some optimizations for China's National IV emission standards to meet environmental requirements and avoid black smoke during acceleration. Overall, it's a pragmatic machine with Japanese roots, ideal for daily use in entry-level SUVs.
