For future reference on why a lot of Chinese cars have 1.5L and below engines.
China's tax on small-engine cars to be raised to 7.5% in 2017 | IHS Markit
the Chinese government will introduce the new tax rate on locally produced vehicles fitted with engines of 1.6 litres and smaller on 1 January 2017. The new tax rate of 7.5% of the selling price for small-engine vehicles is still lower than the 10% charged for vehicles with engines larger than 1.6 litres.

June 20th, 2023 08:17 PM #9from what i vaguely remember from some time back,
the chinese car manufacturer pegged its engines at 1500 cc because of certain tax issues that their government edict-ed. it was advantageous for them to not go beyond 1500 cc.
the philippine market for chinese cars is so small, compared to the rest of their foreign buyers, "they wouldn't do this just for us".
so why did our government favor the 1500?
dunno.
a furrin auto journalist attempted to explain it, that "1500 cc is better",
but nahilo ako sa explanation niya.
