Welding engines up to 1000 cubic meters. cm installed on mini cars is usually half as much as 1.6-liter engines popular in Russia. Sergei Shabunin, the main buyer of the Veshnyaki Avto technical center, told socialbites.ca about this.
“A mini car with a liter engine can travel approximately 200,000 km on average. After that, the unit may need to be overhauled. In vehicles with 1.5-1.6 engines, the average engine life is around 400 thousand km. The final figure is influenced not only by the quality of oil or gasoline, but also by the driving style, ”sabunin said.
According to the expert, the main problem of a small-capacity engine is that it is not always designed for the weight of the car. To stay in flow, especially at speeds above 70 km / h, such an engine must constantly “turn” into the red zone, sometimes. The service person therefore noted that fuel consumption has increased drastically, not to mention the fact that the engine is very hot.
Yang Heitzeer, former Vice President of the National Automobile Association said “socialbites.ca”, if the car is not carefully driven through the potholes, the car can get hidden damage.
