Organisms all have a tendency to reproduce excessively, and living space and food are limited, so organisms must "fight for survival". This is a point expressed by Darwin's theory of evolution, and carefully tasted, which coincides with the development of domestic automobile manufacturing. The explosive growth of car companies, brands and models in the past decade or so has cut a piece of cake into small pieces, but no matter what, the survival of the fittest will continue, and only the strong can survive.
Among the independent brands, the "struggle for survival" is interpreted to the extreme, and I think it is Changan Automobile. Ask me why? Looking at the iteration of the Changan CS75 series, it is not difficult to see why I have such a view. From the listing of the first generation of CS75 in 2014 to the listing of CS75PLUS in 2019, 5 years have passed in between, which is far shorter than the normal iteration time of the industry. At the end of last year, the second-generation CS75PLUS debuted and opened pre-sales on January 20 this year, less than three years, another iteration. There is only one reason why Changan Automobile is so fast to iterate on models - to fear the survival of the fittest.
After iteration, take the lead
After the debut of the second-generation CS75PLUS, there have been many design and driving interpretations, and this time we may wish to confirm its evolution from the most important level of its home SUV - comfort. Comfort can be divided into two parts, one of which comes from the atmosphere, the second generation of CS75PLUS in the car atmosphere can be described as excellent, Changan Automobile follows the current flat design concept, so that the overall design of the second generation CS75PLUS interior presents a simple and not simple visual perception.
Changan Automobile provides three contrast colors for the second-generation CS75PLUS, supplemented by a large area of leather with excellent texture, and exquisite craftsmanship and high-quality trim panels, which use texture to take the atmosphere of the car to a new level. The addition of the 12.3-inch curved double screen and HUD adds a sense of technology to the simple and warm atmosphere that already has a Nordic style.
The second part of comfort comes from the body feeling, which can bring people the most direct comfort feeling. Changan Automobile is obviously well aware of this truth, starting from the most frequently touched seats, the second generation of CS75PLUS can bring a more comfortable ride for the occupants of the car, the application of high-density rebound foam materials and ultra-soft leather wrapped integrated racing seats, under the blessing of cutting-edge ergonomics, can more evenly share the weight of the passengers, bringing a ride like a large sofa at home.
It is true that the physical comfort is by no means more than the above level, and the fresh air and suitable temperature in the car are also important indicators of physical comfort. The second-generation CS75PLUS air conditioner with dual-zone intelligent control system can accurately control the temperature according to the sunshine and temperature data collected by sensors inside and outside the car, and ensure the comfort of the occupants of the car at all times. At the same time, the intelligent air purification system with plasma generator and PM2.5 filter can also make the air in the car continue to be fresh under the dual impact of the current smog and epidemic.
Is that enough? Of course not, many people may not expect that the second generation of CS75PLUS will also integrate another kind of comfort into the car - scene creation. Imagine that the 1.14㎡ oversized skylight with the window makes the occupants of the car feel integrated with the outside scenery when traveling by car; imagine driving alone at night is boring and lonely, when the 8-speaker SONY sound emits melody, and the rhythmic light brought by the bright star skin makes the atmosphere in the car relaxed or dynamic... Is this another interpretation of comfort? And this kind of interior scene creation is the unique secret of the second-generation CS75PLUS.
In fact, not only me, but also many people who have been in contact with the second-generation CS75PLUS, they all think that it has taken the lead in bringing a comfortable feeling to the occupants of the car, no one has me, people have me, probably Changan Automobile wants to let the second-generation CS75PLUS achieve the goal at the comfort level.
Evolution is a brand
To tell the truth, the re-evolution of the second-generation CS75PLUS did not surprise me, after all, I conducted a long test of the first-generation CS75PLUS shortly after its listing, and found that the continuous evolution has been deeply imprinted in the bones of Changan Automobile. The first generation of CS75PLUS from the design, is the breakthrough of Changan Automobile, it is young, it is sporty, it is radical, it is not at all at that time other brands as shallow to try, but completely opened a new pattern, regardless of the appearance or interior, it can be said that Changan Automobile used the first generation of CS75PLUS to let independent brands and even joint venture brands open a new round of design competition. Looking at the young, sporty and radical design that has sprung up now, I have to sigh at changan automobile's forward-looking ability to build "tomorrow's car".
In addition to the design, the power reserve of the first-generation CS75PLUS engine and the tuning of the gearbox left a deep impression on me, and even the chassis tuning that was most criticized by the independent brand at that time also found a balance between comfort and handling. At the configuration level, the intelligent technology configuration provided by Changan Automobile for it, even now, can surpass most of the models of independent and joint venture brands.
It is a bit modest to say that Changan Automobile has maintained its strength through continuous evolution, and what they want should be to always be one step ahead. Of course, it is precisely because of this that Changan Automobile has reaped fruitful results, and the first generation of CS75PLUS has gained the favor of 450,000+ car owners in less than three years is the best return.
Survival of the fittest is fundamental
In fact, Changan Automobile's continuous evolution stems from their desire for change, the "first entrepreneurship" of the 80s I think not many people know it now, but in that period, there was not much external technical support, let alone independent technology, Changan Automobile resolutely entered the field of civilian vehicles, which is undoubtedly the courage to seek change. In the "second entrepreneurship" in 2000, Changan Automobile began to move towards the passenger car field, starting from making a car, step by step to the present, if there is no "second entrepreneurship" that continues to seek change, there will be no current Changan Automobile.
Recall that when the CS75 was about to be launched, everyone was asking a question, Changan Automobile is very good at playing with cars, can the big cars play around? And after the official listing of CS75, what kind of evaluation is the media, what kind of evaluation is the consumer, I don't think I need to say more, the sales that consumers have smashed with real money and silver are enough to explain everything. The survival of the fittest, never is appropriate, but adapted, only to make themselves adapt to the environment, in order to better survive, In 2017 to open the "third entrepreneurship" Changan Automobile now to achieve the survival of the fittest? I think the first two subsections have already given the answer.
Write at the end
Peeping at the leopard, focusing on each evolution of the Changan CS75 series, it is not difficult to see Changan Automobile's grasp of the wind direction of the market, and it is not difficult to see how Changan Automobile is consolidating its strong position by using the change of always one step ahead of others in order to live in the domestic "overgrown" automobile market. Some people may question that the rapid evolution of a single model cannot prove anything, so the sales volume of Changan Automobile's own brand models exceeded 1.2 million throughout last year is undoubtedly a perfect proof, isn't it?
