Chery Arrizo 5 Plus: which version to buy
The Chery Arrizo 5 Plus, as listed here, is a Sedan with 1 generation and 1 version: 1.5 MT. Production of that generation starts 2020-11-01 and has no end date in the data (stop is empty), so model-year searches for 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, or 2026 still point at the same generation and the same 1.5 MT hardware in this catalogue.
The Chery Arrizo 5 Plus, as listed here, is a Sedan with 1 generation and 1 version: 1.5 MT. Production of that generation starts 2020-11-01 and has no end date in the data (`stop` is empty), so model-year searches for 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, or 2026 still point at the same generation and the same 1.5 MT hardware in this catalogue. There is no second gearbox, no second displacement, and no restyle listed as a separate generation. If you are choosing “which Arrizo 5 Plus,” the only named version to buy is 1.5 MT.
That version is Gasoline, 1499 cm³, 116 hp (85 kW) at 6150 rpm, 143 Nm at 4000 rpm, 4 cylinders Inline, 4 valves per cylinder, boost No, engine Front, transverse, injection Distributed injection (multi-point), fuel 95, gearbox Manual with 5 gears, drive FWD. Ground clearance is 127 mm; fuel tank is 48 L. Compression ratio, bore and stroke, 0–100, top speed, city/highway/combined consumption, CO2, eco class, kerb weight, gross weight, and wheel sizes are not measured.
Generations: what changed (and what did not)
1 generation is the whole story. Body: Sedan. Versions in this generation: 1. Years: from 2020-11-01, still open. There is no second generation to compare, so there is no arithmetic of “later gen gained X hp” or “later gen lost Y mm of clearance.” A 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, or 2026 search on this model, in this dataset, does not unlock another engine or another body. Choosing by calendar year is not a version choice here.
Specs: the only version, named exactly
| Version | hp | kW | Nm | Displacement (cm³) | Fuel | Cylinders | Layout | Boost | Gearbox | Gears | Drive |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1.5 MT | 116 | 85 | 143 | 1499 | Gasoline | 4 | Inline | No | Manual | 5 | FWD |
Peak power of 1.5 MT is 116 hp at 6150 rpm; peak torque is 143 Nm at 4000 rpm. Engine position: Front, transverse. Fuel grade in the data: 95. Front brakes: Ventilated disc. Rear brakes: Disc. Front suspension: Independent, spring. Rear suspension: Semi-independent, springorts hélicoïdaux, sem.
Engine math on 1.5 MT (what the numbers buy)
Displacement 1499 cm³ is 1.499 L.
- Specific power: 116 hp ÷ 1.499 L ≈ 77.4 hp per litre (85 kW ÷ 1.499 L ≈ 56.7 kW per litre).
- Specific torque: 143 Nm ÷ 1.499 L ≈ 95.4 Nm per litre.
- Power-to-torque: 116 hp against 143 Nm — torque in newton-metres is 27 units above horsepower (143 − 116 = 27).
- kW vs hp check on the same version: 85 kW × 1.35962 is not used here; both 116 hp and 85 kW are given independently for 1.5 MT.
- Valvetrain count: 4 cylinders × 4 valves per cylinder = 16 valves on 1.5 MT.
- Boost is No, so there is no turbo or supercharger figure to add to 116 hp or 143 Nm.
- Gearbox is Manual, 5 gears, FWD only — there is no automatic row and no AWD row to pay extra for in this catalogue.
Rpm spread: peak torque at 4000 rpm, peak power at 6150 rpm. The gap is 2150 rpm (6150 − 4000). That is the measured band between the two peaks on 1.5 MT; 0–100 is not measured, so this rpm gap is the only performance timing number that exists in the data.
Performance and economy: not measured, so it cannot decide the buy
For 1.5 MT:
- 0–100 km/h: not measured
- Top speed: not measured
- City consumption: not measured
- Highway consumption: not measured
- Combined consumption (mpg-style mixed figure): not measured
- CO2: not measured
- Eco class: not measured
You cannot rank 1.5 MT against itself on acceleration or fuel use from this file. Searches for “review,” “mpg,” or “problems” do not get those numbers here. Economy and sprint are not a reason to pick or skip 1.5 MT inside this catalogue — they are absent, not zero.
Dimensions, weight, tank, clearance
- Kerb weight: not measured — so kg per horsepower is not measured (you cannot divide a missing kerb mass by 116 hp).
- Gross weight: not measured — payload is not measured.
- Ground clearance: 127 mm.
- Fuel tank: 48 L.
- Wheel sizes: not measured.
With kerb weight not measured, “what extra money buys in lightness” is not a comparison you can run. What you can run: tank 48 L on a Gasoline 1.5 MT. Clearance 127 mm is the only ride-height number; there is no second version with a different clearance to subtract.
Which version to choose
There is one named version: 1.5 MT. There is no second 1.5 MT with a different horsepower to split by output, and no AT or other displacement in the list.
Buy 1.5 MT if this hardware is the point: Gasoline 1499 cm³, 116 hp / 85 kW at 6150 rpm, 143 Nm at 4000 rpm, 4 Inline cylinders, boost No, Manual 5, FWD, Sedan, 1 generation from 2020-11-01. Specific output is about 77.4 hp/L and about 95.4 Nm/L. You get Ventilated disc front brakes, Disc rear brakes, Independent, spring front suspension, Semi-independent, springorts hélicoïdaux, sem rear suspension, 127 mm clearance, 48 L tank, fuel 95, injection Distributed injection (multi-point), engine Front, transverse.
Do not treat missing rows as extra versions. Compression, bore × stroke, 0–100, top speed, consumption, CO2, eco class, kerb weight, gross weight, and wheels are not measured. They are not a cheaper trim and not a sport pack.
Do not choose by year as if it were a different car. 2022 / 2023 / 2024 / 2025 / 2026 queries still map to 1 generation and 1.5 MT in this dataset.
Comparisons people search (Arrizo 5 Plus vs BAIC U5 Plus, Arrizo 5 vs Changan Alsvin Plus, Arrizo 5 Pro vs Alsvin Plus, GX, price in China/UAE, grey paint): this file has no BAIC, no Changan, no GX row, no price, and no colour. Those searches cannot be scored with numbers from here. The only in-catalogue comparison is 1.5 MT against a missing second version — and that second version does not exist.
Reliability / problems: not in the data. Do not infer them from 116 hp or from 5 gears.
Bottom line: the version to buy, if you buy this model from this catalogue, is 1.5 MT. The “extra money” question has no second spec to spend on: no extra hp, no extra Nm, no extra gears, no other drive, no other body. What you get for the only SKU is 116 hp, 143 Nm, 1499 cm³, Manual 5, FWD, 127 mm clearance, 48 L tank. What you do not get as a measured figure is weight, wheels, 0–100, top speed, or consumption — all not measured.
