Currently, the technical level of Chery engines is obvious to all. After all, it is the first Chinese auto company to start self-developed engines.
Chery’s current model is mainly furnished with its third-generation 1.6T engine. With the superpower of 145kW and 290N·m, it has become the first echelon 1.6T engine in China.
Today, Chery is even more radical. It has introduced a 1.6T version of a high-power engine. The power directly exceeds 200 horsepower, reaching 217 horsepower. There are few rivals in the Chinese engine of the same displacement.
Recently, we learned from online channels that Chery is preparing for the transformation of the 1.6T engine code-named F4J16, which indicates that the 1.6T high-power version will be mass-produced and put into use one after another.
Judging from the known information, the 1.6T high-power version has a maximum power of 160kW and a peak torque of 320N·m that is more powerful than the current mid-power version, and even more. The 2.0T engine of a Chinese car producer.
It is reported that the 1.6T high-power version of the engine, on the basis of the current 1.6T engine, adjusts the fuel injection pressure from 200bar to 350bar, and the engine block has been upgraded, and the strength and rigidity have been improved, and it can withstand stronger power output.
Currently, Chery’s third-generation engine is mainly assembled on Tiggo 8/Plus, Tiggo 7, Jietu X70 Plus, Xingtu Lanyue, and other models. With the advent of high-power 1.6T engines, the above models may be equipped with 1.6T high-power versions when they are changed.
Additionally, many consumers believe that the Chery 1.6T engine, including such radical power tuning, will definitely reduce the wear resistance and engine life.
In order to dispel consumers’ doubts, Chery currently provides a 10-year free engine warranty of 1 million kilometers for all 1.6T engine models on sale.
Regardless of the power level or the quality assurance policy given by the trust in its own products, it far exceeds that of joint venture brands such as Toyota, Honda, and Volkswagen.
It can be said that Chery is currently taking the quality and performance reputation of Chinese-owned automakers to a new level.
