Geely Emgrand

[AG4]

I can't find where I read it earlier in the week, but the 1.5 na engine is an old design right? Was it a Mitsu or MG design which is explaining why the output is closer to more 'current gen' 1.3l powerplants?

Does not look like a Mitsubishi engine. The intake and exhaust of the Emgrand's 1.5L JLC-4G15B engine is opposite that of Mitsubishi's 4G15, the Geely engine also seems to be using a timing chain instead of a timing belt. MG's 1.5L engine appears to be based on GM-SAIC's 1.5L engine.

Apparently there are engine codes in China that include "4G15" but are not Mitsubishi-based, they just happen to be "4-cylinder Gasoline 1.5 liter" engines.

In Wikipedia somebody linked all engines that contain "4G15" in the engine code to the Mitsubishi's Orion Engine wiki page including those unrelated to the Mitsubishi engine. This might have caused some confusion.

Emgrand's 1.5L engine..
