Got the hang of it? Another batch of three-cylinder cars returned to the 1.5T four-cylinder

In the past three years, China VI emissions have made many three-cylinder cars appear, after market baptism, it is obvious that consumers do not buy the "energy saving and emission reduction" of this method, and many star cars have fallen off the altar because of the three-cylinder. Time to 2022, a new round of internal combustion engine iterations have officially begun, this time, it seems that no one is like the "head iron" of that year, in the 1.5L market to maintain the largest displacement, the same in-line four-cylinder engine.

●Geely Binrui / Binyue

On the upcoming Binrui COOL (which is currently available for order), we saw for the first time the 1.5T engine model BHE15-EFZ, which is different from the 1.5T engine on the current model, which adopts an in-line four-cylinder reverse layout, with a maximum power of 181 hp (133 kW) and a peak torque of 290 Nm, and the data is not afraid of the 1.5T, Changan Blue Whale 1.5T, SAIC Blue Core 1.5T and Chery Kunpeng 1.6T.

According to the official information, this new machine head is a typical reverse layout, the exhaust manifold and supercharger are located on the inside of the cabin, the direct spray nozzle is a central layout, with an optimized intake roller flow, which can achieve more full oil/gas mixing and improve fuel efficiency. In addition, many advanced technologies such as 350Bar common rail direct injection, small inertia exhaust gas turbocharger, and electronically controlled turbo pressure relief valve are not absent from this car, which is already a basic operation for a latest engine.

Judging from the declaration information, in addition to the new Binrui, Binyue and ICON in the SUV market, Jiaji in the MPV market will also usher in a mid-term change, and will be equipped with this 1.5T four-cylinder engine, which makes products at all levels more confident in the face of peers. Even, the Emgrand L Hi · equipped with the Thor Intelligent Engine Hybrid System The X model, whose engine is also this BHE15-EFZ, even the book data is exactly the same.

●Lynk & Co 03/06

In addition to Geely brand family cars, many models of the Lynk & Co brand derived from the CMA platform will also be equipped with this 1.5T engine in the future to complete the replacement of the 1.5T three-cylinder engine in service. Among them, Lynk & Co 06 already has a declaration map, and it is also equipped with a BHE15-EFZ 1.5T inline four-cylinder engine with 350 common rail direct injection, Eros combustion technology, and small inertia electronically controlled turbine, further strengthening the product force.

According to the declaration information of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the powertrain of the new Lynk & Co 06 is exactly the same as that of several Geely cars above, and the guidance price of the current model is only 118,600, which will have better performance in terms of material technology, functional configuration, service experience, etc. The small block and exquisite design are also very attractive to young women.

In addition, the new Lynk & Co 03 is expected to officially meet with the majority of consumers within this year, the car for the standard version and 03 + steel gun version has been further differentiated, the front face of the vehicle looks more aggressive than the current model. In terms of power, the low-lynk & Co 03 will also be equipped with a new nose, and the Lynk & Co 03+ will continue to form a "dimensionality reduction attack" on the Volkswagen Golf GTI with 2.0T+8AT+AWD.

● Chevrolet Create Cool RS

In the mid-term redesign of Buick Veyron, we saw SAIC-GM's eighth-generation Ecotec 1.5T engine for the first time to replace the old 1.3T inline three-cylinder engine, and the subsequent Oncovi S/PLUS low-end was also equipped with this new engine. Like the Geely above, the engine was in reverse, with a high-power version of the Uncovi S reaching 211 hp/270 Nm.

After Buick, chevrolet's many models will also be equipped with new machine heads, the first application is on the new cool RS, the real car debuted on April 29, although it is the main functional small SUV, but the new paint color scheme plus the new blackening kit, is still the brand's exclusive combat style, more in line with the tastes of young people.

In the interior part, the new car has also updated the central control layout like Veyron, the full LCD dashboard, the suspension central control screen are the fashionable elements that young people like to see at the moment, and the pure black interior is supplemented by the red stitching process, which is also full of combat. For reference, the current Chuangku guidance price is 118,900-13.99 million yuan, and the Chuangku with a new machine head still poses a certain threat to Honda Binzhi and Haval H6 National Tide.

● Ford Focus

Like the General Purpose System, the Ford Focus is also a typical example of being "played bad" by the three-cylinder engine, since the iterative model of a few years ago was fully equipped with a 1.5L/1.5T three-cylinder engine, even the use of an 8-speed planetary gear transmission can not save the fate of being abandoned by users.

The declaration information shows that Fox is about to usher in a mid-term redesign model, which is also a sedan version and a hatchback version in parallel, and the appearance style has also been adjusted, but the most noteworthy thing for consumers is that Changan Ford has finally "turned back to the shore" in terms of power. The redesigned Focus is equipped with a 1.5T engine modeled CAF479WQ6, which is actually a technical upgrade based on the previous generation of Mondeo 1.5T engine (focusing on solving emissions problems), and its maximum power is 130 kW, which is also considered to be the mainstream level of the same kind.

In the interior part, the layout of the new car central control has not changed much, but the suspension central control screen is much higher than the current model, supporting Apple CarPlay and Android Auto mobile phone interconnection, and the car machine function and digital interaction experience may be further upgraded compared with the current model. Also because it is low-end, the version shown in the real car does not use a knob-type electronic gear shift mechanism.

●Summary:

From the current industry development, the major manufacturers have slightly underestimated the degree of resistance of domestic users to the inline three-cylinder engine, Fox, Veyron and Cruze (Cruze) have "fallen" to corroborate this, and even Corolla can not withstand the pressure brought by the 1.5L three-cylinder engine, dare not completely abandon the 1.2T four-cylinder version. Nowadays, Geely, GM, and Ford seem to have gradually adapted to the pressure brought by the new emission standards, and the future of pure fuel vehicles is most likely to be four cylinders, and the only iron is that at present, it seems that only Dongfeng Nissan's Qijun.
