The development of new energy vehicles is related to the future and destiny of China's automotive industry and shoulders a major mission, and the current optimistic situation is that China's new energy vehicles have been at the forefront of the world.
However, new energy vehicles in the process of development and popularization also encountered some technical problems, some are hardware, some are software, but the wisdom of Chinese automotive engineers broke through all difficulties, in the field of new energy vehicles to cut through thorns, creating one miracle after another. Among them, Changan Automobile has broken through one bottleneck after another in technology and created the "Blue Whale iDD Hybrid System" to achieve leapfrog development.
Elegance: The "Life" of Changan UNI-K iDD
Changan UNI-K iDD is the first plug-in hybrid SUV in the Changan UNI family, using the "Blue Whale iDD Hybrid System". So, how does this car drive...
On February 19th, Changan Automobile held the #Mission iDD Energy Unplugged #, Changan UNI-K iDD Regional High-Diving User Venue Test Driving Experience Camp in Changchun, in-depth learning of the quality charm of the "whole process" 0 anxiety "electromix SUV" UNI-K iDD.
As the first model equipped with the Blue Whale iDD hybrid system, the whole "0 anxiety" hybrid SUV - UNI-K iDD has officially opened pre-sale, and the official pre-sale price of the two models is 176,900-19.29 million yuan.
Changan UNI-K iDD adopts the same design as the fuel version, and the unique front face created by 60 flat hexagonal trim panels makes people shine, creating a unique recognition rate that meets the aesthetics of young people today. Its dimensions are 4865mm*1948mm*1700mm, the wheelbase is 2890mm, and the side of the body is outlined with simple and smart lines.
The interior follows the three-in-one (10.25 inches + 9.2 inches + 3.5 inches) full LCD instrument, all materials are made of violin soft wrapping, and the workmanship materials are fine.
The central control screen is equipped with a high-definition 12.3-inch color touch screen, the function buttons on the right side of the screen are very sci-fi, and the screen is equipped with the new Flying Fish OS3.0 system, which has a built-in powerful iFLYTEK speech recognition system.
The sports seats are comfortable to the touch, the black seats are elegant and thick leather wrapped, and the wings on both sides are strongly supportive. The main passenger seat is equipped with electric multi-function adjustment, which supports the electric adjustment of the backrest angle and the front and back/height of the seat.
In terms of power, Changan UNI-K iDD is equipped with "Blue Whale iDD Hybrid System", integrated with a 1.5T engine codenamed "JL473ZQ6", with a maximum power of 12 kilowatts and a peak power of 85 kilowatts of driving motors; official data show that The Changan UNI-K iDD battery capacity is 30.7kWh, pure electric endurance can reach 130 kilometers, and the Blue Whale iDD hybrid system supports 220V home charging, AC and DC dual, fast charging three charging methods.
Lightness: Changan UNI-K iDD, "mainly electricity-
From the perspective of test driving experience, the author believes that the overall feeling of Changan UNI-K iDD is that it has both the acceleration of fuel vehicles and the light driving of electric vehicles, although the power is somewhat different from the 2.0T fuel version that the author tested before, but keep in mind that this is a new energy vehicle that pays attention to environmental protection and fuel saving, you can't use acceleration to describe it, saving fuel for car owners is the advantage of Changan UNI-K iDD.
Because the author has experienced the fuel version before, this time focus on the heV mode of the car, low-speed driving is to simulate the city road conditions, you can hardly feel the engine and the motor driving the vehicle together, feel that this is a pure electric car, gasoline engine rarely involved in it, most of the time is the motor working.
The working principle of Changan's "Blue Whale iDD Hybrid System" is to make the "auxiliary" motor work, most of the time is driven by the motor, and the engine is mostly in the "rest" state to achieve the purpose of fuel saving.
If you adjust to EV mode, the engine stops working, which is equivalent to driving an electric car, thus achieving zero fuel consumption.
Changan UNI-K iDD also has an "i-X" mode, officially called "Aichuang Space", which has custom functions. Can be adjusted in the car system, there are "surging power", "camping mode", etc., of which "surging power", the power output is direct and sensitive, and the "camping mode" is less refueling, less charging, similar to energy-saving mode.
Although the battery increases the weight of the car, the Changan UNI-K iDD is very calm. And it is mainly driven by an electric motor, so acceleration and driving will not drag mud and water, and the power reserve is sufficient.
In the test drive, the calm chassis makes the Changan UNI-K iDD vehicle posture calm, the NVH in the car is very good, and the tire noise is acceptable. In short, it is more than enough to meet the commuting class and eliminate consumer charging anxiety.
Who is the "Blue Whale iDD"
Last year, Changan Automobile officially released the "Blue Whale iDD Hybrid System", which is based on the Blue Whale engine independently developed by Changan Automobile, which is compatible with 48V, HEV, PHEV and REEV and other hybrid forms, and will be installed in CS, UNI and other series models in the future.
The Blue Whale iDD Hybrid System (intelligent Dual Drive) is made by more than 500 engineers from 10 countries and has been honing and honing for 6 years. Blue Whale iDD represents the global intelligent oil-electric dual-drive system, the whole domain is the "full speed domain, full field domain, full temperature domain, full time domain" collectively referred to, it can be applied to all models of A-class -C class platform.
Positioning of Blue Whale iDD: Global hybrid solution, covering high-performance Blue Whale engine, high-efficiency Blue Whale electric drive transmission, ultra-large capacity PHEV battery, intelligent control system.
Even at very low ambient temperatures of minus 35°C to very high ambient temperatures of 55°C, Blue Whale iDD achieves safe and stable driving performance. In addition, Blue Whale iDD provides users with stable durability throughout the life cycle. At the same time, the intelligent full-powered OTA upgrade is realized, starting from the first user, the package can be upgraded for life.
Blue Whale iDD's high-performance Blue Whale engine continues the excellent DNA of Blue Whale's efficient and agile combustion system, which includes a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine with a maximum power of 126 kW and a maximum torque of 260 Nm, achieving 45% thermal efficiency.
Changan Blue Whale iDD hybrid system represents the next stage of Changan Automobile's power technology strength, marking the arrival of the Blue Whale 2.0 era, will further consolidate the "technology Changan" brand label, the next 5 years will be installed in more than 10 models on the market.
