I know that many people have taken a fancy to Changan UNI-V, this kind of compact car with a coupe-like appearance and a top-of-the-line pre-price of only 134,900 yuan is really heartwarming.
However, the light has a good-looking sports shape, often can only deceive the appearance of the association of consumers, performance of small steel cannons like to play pigs and eat tigers, indicating that the mediocre, performance but people scare you. Therefore, we have always been curious about the driving experience of Changan UNI-V, should it not be useful?

Pre-price: 134,900 yuan
Model positioning: Compact sedan
Engine: 1.5T L4
Transmission: 7DCT
Maximum horsepower: 188 hp
Peak torque: 300 Nm

Model highlights: full of power, comfort and handling are surprised, and are popular with the appearance association
However, we are really worried! Changan UNI-V is a new generation of Blue Whale NE 1.5T high-pressure direct injection engine, matching the Blue Whale 7-speed DCT transmission model, this set of power in our eyes is almost like an old friend, before we test drove the Changan UNI-T, the second generation CS55PLUS are equipped with the same powertrain, full of power experience, we have long seen.
Can the same motivation and experience be the same? Not necessarily! Changan UNI-V's weight is lighter than the previous SUVs, and the feeling of acceleration is more refreshing, and the GAC Trumpchi Shadow Leopard, which has recently become the center of the topic, has really found an opponent. And the same is the dual-clutch transmission, I think the Changan UNI-V matching is smarter than gaga Trumpchi Shadow Leopard, in addition to better smoothness, the thinking time when changing gears is also significantly shorter, so the overall opening is smoother.
With such a good power performance, we are more looking forward to the 2.0T version of Changan UNI-V, and when the time comes, it will be able to compete with those small steel cannons that play pigs and eat tigers!
When driving the Changan UNI-V into the first corner, we found that it is a very fun car, lower than the UNI-T body, the roll is naturally much smaller, so it does not need to use a hard chassis adjustment like UNI-T, no matter the size of the bumps are handled to make you feel comfortable, the mother sits in the back row, there will be no complaints.
On the mountain road with continuous curves, we get more and more energetic, the small size of the sports steering wheel grip is quite good, each turn, the force feedback from light to heavy is also natural, the front wheel can follow your intentions to run. Although the wheelbase of Changan UNI-V has reached 2750mm, which is basically close to the level of B-class cars, it has good dexterity when cornering, and the rear of the car is not cumbersome.
Chat Changan UNI-V must not forget its electric rear wing, in the same price level and level, this configuration is obviously unique, it can manually control the lifting, although the actual effect may not be large, but the moment the tail rises, the face is all earned by you!
As for the hidden place, Changan UNI-V also brought us surprises. Open the engine cover, the two sides of the front suspension called "tower top" position actually link this set of "top bar", this kind of strengthened body structure components are usually some models that emphasize the handling performance can only be seen, Changan really made a bloody cost this time.
In addition to the sporty shape and good driving sense, Changan UNI-V has not given up the basic practicality, the rear space is not narrow, and the hatchback tailgate design used in the trunk can also enhance its storage capacity to a certain extent.
For a long time, models that emphasize sporty performance have not sold well in China, in fact, it is not that consumers do not like to drive, but because they pay more attention to the needs of practicality and comfort, and at the same time are more sensitive to price. Nowadays, Changan UNI-V can basically take into account this series of needs of consumers, and I believe that after the listing of this car, it can be sought after by consumers.
