Are there any new cars to look forward to in 2022? Changan UNI-V is definitely on the list!
As the third model of the Changan UNI family and the first car, Changan UNI-V has attracted a lot of attention since its debut with its dynamic styling design and the only big tail wing in its class!
However, after the announcement of its top-tier pre-subscription price of 134,900 yuan, the online evaluation of Changan UNI-V is evolving in the opposite direction. "The pricing is too high", "It's not suitable for us ordinary people", "A little disappointed"...
Read the comments, can't help but make people doubt life, spend 134,900 yuan to buy a Changan brand, with an electric rear wing coupe, is it really expensive?
Here we are not in a hurry to draw conclusions, in order to solve the doubts in everyone's hearts, we will take the trumpchi "AMG" that is currently selling on the market, Trumpchi shadow leopard, for a fair comparison! They are the Changan UNI-V 2022 1.5T Smart Pilot model with a pre-priced price of 134,900 yuan and the Shadow Leopard 2021 270T Shadow Leopard J16 Sushen Limited Edition priced at 131,800 yuan.
The appearance is all sporty, and the Changan UNI-V also has a tail wing blessing
There is a saying that goes, "If you don't change your car, it's better to push it into the sea." For car lovers, appropriate modifications can not only show their personality, but also add a sporty soul to their car. Judging from the design of Changan UNI-V and Trumpchi Shadow Leopard, the design of both is very sporty.
Let's first look at the Trumpchi Shadow Leopard model, as the first model based on the GPMA architecture, the appearance of the Shadow Leopard adopts the latest "photoplastic curved surface" design language of the family, and a variety of tough lines match the elements of movement, which looks very sporty. At the same time, the car's grille also uses a vertical mesh inside, with the "double blade" air vents on both sides, which looks very sporty, which is also a key reason why consumers call it "AMG".
The field of view moves to the side, and the design of the shadow leopard is also very smooth, especially the waist line at the bottom, which is very three-dimensional under the effect of light and shadow. In addition, thanks to the smooth body design, the wind resistance coefficient of the car is only 0.26Cd. In the creation of a sports atmosphere, the strength of the shadow leopard is worthy of the name.
If Trumpchi Shadow Leopard has the visual sense of "AMG", then in terms of design, Changan UNI-V has the posture of Audi A7. First of all, the front face part, the new car as a whole continues the family design style, the classic borderless grille with a narrow headlight group, in the blackening treatment of the air vent, it looks very imposing.
Thanks to the design of the new architecture, the overall layout of the car is more compact, the center of gravity is lower, and the slip-on design is also a plus for this car. What's more, the car is also equipped with the only liftable rear wing in its class, and can also be manually controlled by physical/virtual buttons. Referring to the information provided by Changan Automobile, when the rear wing is opened, it can provide 25kg of extreme downforce, which is extremely playable.
As for the performance of the two in terms of size, they tend to be the same because the positioning is the same. At the same time, because the whole car shape of the two cars is a slippery back style design, the rear space of the whole car can also be guaranteed, so in terms of riding, the two cars are basically tied.
The interior is all technology, and the Changan UNI-V configuration is more abundant
If the appearance of Changan UNI-V and Trumpchi Shadow Leopard is labeled "radical", then in the creation of the interior atmosphere, the design of the two can inevitably be called "technology", especially the use of large screens, the whole vehicle looks very cool. If you stamp the car logo, it is difficult for us to believe that these are two independent brand models, and I have to say that the changes in independent brands in recent years are very large!
Sitting in the Trumpchi Shadow Leopard car, the car adopts the mainstream wrap-around design, at the same time, in order to enhance the sense of grade in the central control area, the new car also introduces a large number of soft materials in the details, and with the dual screen design of the central control area, the scientific and technological atmosphere of the whole vehicle is still relatively obvious.
It should be noted that the 10.25-inch LCD instrument display is relatively clear, and the internal display effect can also be switched according to the driving mode. If the vehicle is adjusted to SPORT+ mode, an accelerometer will also appear in the dashboard. However, considering the power configuration of Trumpchi Shadow Leopard, this configuration is a "self-hi watch" in most scenarios.
In addition, the 10.25-inch central control screen is equipped with the latest ADiGO intelligent interconnection ecosystem, relying on the Internet of Vehicles, the owner can also control navigation, QQ music, Himalaya FM and other functions in this set. If you have some other hobbies, you can also download your favorite APP in this big screen of the car machine.
To say that the interior design is also the strength of Changan Automobile, from the design of Changan UNI-V, the new car still continues the family design style. The full LCD instrument is on the top, the suspension central control screen is on the bottom, and the design with a great sense of layering can well highlight the sense of science and technology of this car. Not only that, but argens real-life navigation is not absent on this body, and it is very practical in the process of daily driving.
In other configurations, in addition to the induction trunk, keyless entry /start, remote start function, 10.3-inch full LCD instrument, such as SONY audio, LED headlights, remote control parking, three-finger flying screen function and other configurations, are also not absent, overall, cost-effective. Based on the comparison table, it is not difficult to see that in the case of rich configurations, Changan UNI-V is more comprehensive in some details, such as SONY audio can meet the car needs of some music enthusiasts, which is better than Trumpchi "AMG".
Performance and safety, Changan UNI-V performance is more comprehensive
Since it is positioned in the sports coupe model, the power configuration must be seen! From the perspective of the power provided by the two, they are equipped with 1.5T engines, but because of the difference in power technology, they also show certain differences at the parameter level.
First look at the Trumpchi Shadow Leopard model, the car is equipped with "Julang Power" 1.5TGDI turbocharged engine, referring to the official statement, this engine integrates double-channel supercharging, overhead water cooling and intercooling, high-pressure injection, large inertia balance shaft and intelligent thermal management and other advanced technologies, thanks to this, the car also has a maximum power of 130kW, 270N·m maximum torque, the performance experience is very strong.
In terms of transmission, the engine is matched by a 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission independently developed by GAC. In terms of driving mode, the car supports economic, standard, sport, sport + and custom driving modes, not only that, like the young consumer's favorite ejection start, this car is also equipped, overall, more outstanding.
Although it is the same as the 1.5T engine, in terms of parameters, Changan UNI-V is even better. In the power part, Changan UNI-V is equipped with a Blue Whale NE1.5-liter turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 138 kW and a maximum torque of 300 N·m, both of which are ahead of the Trumpchi Shadow Leopard model. This set of power has also been tested in other models of the Changan family, and the overall performance is still very reliable.
When we enter the intense driving state, there will be a super race orange button on the center console of the car, if pressed, then the tail wing is raised, the gearbox logic changes, and the drive will be more moving. This detail can better confirm the special positioning of "coupe".
Not only that, at some assisted driving levels, the performance of Changan UNI-V is also more comprehensive. For example, on the basis of intelligent driving assist technology at the same time, Changan UNI-V also has an additional reversing side warning system, engine start-stop technology, automatic parking and so on, and the car experience is more perfect.
Conclusion:
You get what you pay for! Changan UNI-V will be 1.5T top version pre-priced at 134,900, expensive?
The answer is no! Compared with the shadow leopard, whether it is the only tail wing of the same level, or the interior with a high sense of technology, or the power of the far leading, Changan UNI-V has a very high match and balanced performance! More importantly, with the addition of the low-end version in the later stage, consumers will have a more comprehensive choice when facing this car. Of course, if you want to start with the more powerful 2.0T version later, this car will also be provided!
