Weichai Auto is preparing to introduce the Yingzhi G3 SUV in the Chinese car market in August, with a price starting around CNY 60,000 and going up to CNY 80,000.

The G3 will compete with cars such as the Chang'an CS35 and Great Wall M4.

Power comes from a 1.5 litre four-cylinder petrol engine with 102hp and 141nm, mated to a 5-speed manual or a CVT, sending power to the front wheels. The engine is manufactured by the Mianyang Power Machinery Corporation which has close ties to Weichai Power. The engine was originally designed by Mitsubishi.

Weichai Auto is a brand new car brand owned by Weichai Power, one of China's largest engine makers. The company is based in Weifang, Shandong Province. Yingzhi is the brand name, called Enranger in English. The Yingzhi G3, formerly known as Yingzhi S201, is their first car.
