"The interior is invincible", "This car is so beautiful", "Alas, it's early again", "I want to drive it"...
When you see these messages, I believe many people will have a doubt, what is this car? So popular? Let me decrypt it, the other day my colleague statically experienced the second generation of Changan CS75PLUS, which attracted the attention of a large number of consumers. To tell the truth, Changan CS75PLUS, as the leader in the independent compact SUV market, although it was officially launched in 2019, it has so far gained more than 450,000 car owners, becoming a veritable "explosive" model.
With the intensification of domestic market competition, Changan Automobile will obviously not be satisfied with this, recently the second generation of CS75PLUS also officially met with everyone, in addition to the appearance, interior and configuration of the comprehensive upgrade, the power system is a great surprise to consumers - the whole series is equipped with 8AT gearbox. Yes, you read that right, whether it is 1.5T or 2.0T, directly arranged Aisin's 8AT gearbox, how many car companies can do this?
Since my colleagues have already had a static experience with the new car, this article will only make a brief review of the exterior interior, focusing on the test drive experience of the vehicle. The test drive is the 2.0T version of the model, the 1.5T version is only a static display, and the two in addition to the difference in the power system, the other gap is not large, the follow-up we will also bring the 1.5T version of the detailed experience, interested partners can continue to pay attention to our report.
Since it is called the "second generation", then the overall change must be obvious, first of all, in terms of appearance, the new car in order to meet the needs of different consumers, designed a dot matrix grille and "V" type grille optional, the official called the crystal matrix grille and whale tail wave grille, both of which use a borderless design style, suddenly highlighting the high-end sense of the new car, but personally prefer the latter, then which one will you choose more?
In addition, the new car also has front face through LED day running lights, 19-inch wheels, giant screen panoramic sunroof, tail through tail lights, fighter type four-out tail row, etc., visually giving people a sense of stability and sportiness. In addition, the second-generation CS75PLUS will also replace the red trim on the current model with a dark gold trim strip, which enhances the grade of the vehicle from the details and makes the new car look more exquisite overall.
Entering the car, to be honest, Changan's current interior design takes into account the sense of luxury and science and technology, the interstellar wisdom cockpit is easy to make people shine, large double screen design, intelligent HUD, brilliant star skin, atmosphere lights and other scientific and technological configurations, to create a bright technology atmosphere of the whole car. It is worth mentioning that the interior of the new car provides three colors, namely black gray, red black, blue and white, of which the blue and white color is very in line with young consumers, and the fresh and elegant grade is extremely high.
Double 12.3-inch LCD screen has been seen in several cars in Changan, the touch is sensitive and smooth, of which the central control large screen is built into the call intelligent vehicle interconnection system, only need to use the mobile phone to grasp the relevant data of the vehicle, maintenance and vehicle health reports and other information at any time. In addition, functions such as car WeChat, multi-scene voice control, mobile phone car search and mobile phone Bluetooth key are also equipped on new cars, which greatly improves the car experience of car owners.
In addition, the new car is also equipped with a new generation of IMS intelligent interaction system, including face ID face recognition function, intelligent gesture control, fatigue monitoring and early warning and irregular behavior prompts, etc., and more intelligent child care system, in addition to real-time monitoring of the status of children in the back row, but also can intelligently push the corresponding children's songs, stories, video resources, giving the owner a sufficiently assured driving environment to avoid security risks due to distraction.
As we all know, the safety configuration of a car is not too much, and the second generation of Changan CS75PLUS is indeed very sincere in this regard, equipped with traffic congestion assistance, intelligent deceleration and cornering, intelligent speed limiting assistance, lane keeping assist, intelligent far and near light system, intelligent avoidance, intelligent emergency braking and many other safety functions. The IACC+ full-speed intelligent cruise system can achieve L2 level intelligent assisted driving, making your car life more relaxed.
Of course, whether the car is good or not, you have to drive it up. The test drive part of the second generation of Changan CS75PLUS is divided into road test drive and site test drive, so how is its actual performance?
Before answering this question, it is necessary to understand the "special equipment" of the new car, the golden power combination of the blue whale's new generation 2.0T engine + Aisin 8AT transmission. As a new generation of Blue Whale 2.0T high-pressure direct injection engine, its maximum power is 171kW and the maximum torque is 390N·m, which is the top level in similar products. Although the 1.5T version did not have a test drive, the data is equally excellent, the maximum power rating is 138kW, the maximum torque is 300N·m, and the cow is not?
This time Changan will be selected for the test drive in Chongqing, and our test drive time period also includes the morning peak, so climbing downhill, walking and stopping has become a very common road condition, but the second generation of Changan CS75PLUS is very relaxed, the power response is very positive at the beginning, tap the accelerator pedal power immediately followed up, there is no sense of procrastination at all, in line with the positioning of an urban SUV biased towards comfort.
With the continuous increase in speed, the advantages of the Aisin 8AT gearbox are expressed, and the sudden setback is almost not felt during the gear change, and the overall smoothness of the vehicle is improved a lot. In addition, the gearbox also has a lower lock-up speed and idle neutral control technology, hydraulic torque converter slip control technology, in the face of congested urban principles and red light starting, it can make the start very soft, at the same time fuel economy, comfortable and intimate.
The 390N·m's abundant torque reserve provides strong acceleration, and although it doesn't have the strong feeling of pushing back, it is still easy to change lanes and overtake. The second generation of CS75PLUS has Normal/ECO/Sport/custom four driving modes, the corresponding driving mode Engine and gearbox response are different, the general city car can be placed in Normal mode, ECO mode is a bit "Buddha", and Sport mode is a bit "grumpy", depending on personal preference!
In terms of chassis, the new car adopts a combination of front McPherson independent suspension + rear multi-link independent suspension, and the overall adjustment is biased towards comfortable home, so the small bumps and shock absorption belts are well filtered, coupled with thick seat wrapping, even if sitting in the back row, there is no uncomfortable feeling. However, it is not blindly soft, and the suspension still retains enough support, so when it comes to rapid corners and continuous lane changes, the body posture is maintained well, which can give the driver enough confidence.
There is also a feature that surprises me during the road test drive, when you are driving on the phone or there is a deviation of the line of sight, the camera on the inside of the steering wheel will detect the driving state, and then the system will prompt through voice, and even verify whether the driver's attention is concentrated through the "virtual call" (such as a sister call, a leader call, etc.). At present, the model we test drive is not the final mass production version, and the relevant functions will be further optimized!
Upon arrival at the venue, the organizers prepared a blind driving challenge, a one-button track function experience, a Möbius ring challenge, and a 0-60km/h rapid acceleration time and sharp braking distance test. Among them, the blind driving experience tests the 540-degree panoramic image function of the new car, covering the front gear and both sides of the vehicle, avoiding obstacles by observing the vehicle image of the central control screen, and the screen reacts quickly in the actual experience, which is definitely a blessing for novice drivers.
As for the one-button track function, it can be re-poured out within 50m, especially when the narrow alley with limited space or the rear cannot be clearly observed, this function is very easy to use, directly making your reversing easy, convenient and safe. In the Möbius Ring Challenge project, the test is the power output and low-speed climbing ability of the second-generation CS75PLUS, and the cross-axle and one-sided slope set above the ramp have no impact on it, which shows that the new car has excellent stability.
When accelerating in a straight line, although this is an SUV model, but when you step on the floor oil, the powerful power output will make you a little "caught off guard", the intervention of the turbine makes the speed climb very fast, the measured 0-60km/h acceleration The best result is only 3.55 seconds, and the good braking performance also makes it 60-0km/h The braking distance is controlled at 13.93 meters, it seems that this car is really fast braking, the completion does not disappoint consumers, and the daily use is more suitable.
