Sales exceed Geely Emgrand, standard 10.25-inch LCD instrument, Changan Yidong is good?
A few days ago, the January 2022 passenger car sales ranking was announced, Geely Emgrand sales rank fell from 7th to 9th, while Changan Yidong rushed from 18th to 6th in the list, with sales of 21,324 units in the month, becoming the sales champion of domestic compact cars. So, the question is, what is the good thing about Changan Yidong, and can get the support of so many consumers?
First of all, from the appearance of the design, the current Changan Yidong should be accurately called "Changan Yidong PLUS", compared with the previous generation of Yidong, the overall shape is younger and more sporty. Taking the Chang'an Yidong Blue Whale Edition as an example, the intake grille of the front face adopts a new family design language, and the upper and lower narrow grille shapes are embellished by blackened mesh trims, supplemented by the red "S" sports label decoration on the main driving side, which is full of sports atmosphere.
At the same time, the front face of the new car also adopts chrome trim strips to trim the edge of the grille, connecting the LED light groups on both sides of the front of the car, stretching the visual width and strengthening the visual impact. The ordinary version of Yidong and the blue whale version of the front face design is slightly different, the intake grille uses a large number of banner chrome trim design, the fashion atmosphere is more intense, the sense of sport is slightly flat, but still has a high degree of model recognition.
On the side of the body, the blue whale version of the Escape and the ordinary version of the Escape are consistent with the side shape, both adopt the popular double waist line design, in which the upper waist line starts from the front headlights, and the waist line extended from the rear tail lights is staggered up and down, enhancing the sports texture. In addition, the new car is equipped with 16-inch double five-width whirlwind rims, and the rim shape is quite dynamic. In terms of size, the new car has a length, width and height of 4730/1820/1505mm, a wheelbase of 2700mm, the size is leading The Emgrand, and the advantages in space are beyond doubt.
In the rear part of the car, the Blue Whale version and the ordinary version of Yidong all use the same tail shape, and although the through-LED taillight design is not really through the design, it is still quite recognizable, and the exquisite feeling after lighting is not bad. In addition, the top of the new trunk lid is also designed with a playful ducktail shape, which can play a certain spoiler role, and the rear surround sides are also designed with a cooling trough, supplemented by reflective strip decoration, which complements the bilateral double chrome exhaust port to create a good sports atmosphere.
In terms of interior, Changan Yidong can be said to be at the forefront of the industry, although the interior design is the style of 2020, but it is still not outdated today. The new car's central control armrest is connected to the center console, and the angle of the air conditioning control panel is slightly inclined to the main driver, which is convenient to operate and has a sense of design. At the same time, the interior material is not general, the surface of the center console is covered with a layer of aluminum-plastic mica pattern trim, the steering wheel, the central control shift area, the inside of the door panel are covered with leather sutures, plus the embellishment of local silver trim strips, the texture is relatively good.
It is worth mentioning that in the creation of a sense of science and technology atmosphere, Changan Yidong spares no effort, the whole series is equipped with 10.25-inch LCD instruments, the instrument display effect is clear and easy to read, and its composition of the dual screen shape is a 10.25-inch central control screen, supporting speech recognition, OTA upgrade, Internet of Vehicles, navigation and other commonly used car machine functions, but the operation response speed is general, a bit affecting the technology experience. In addition, the new car is equipped with a sensor rear tailgate, keyless entry, uphill assist, and pm2.5 filtering in the car, which is practical and rich in functional configuration.
In terms of core power, Changan Yidong provides two sets of powertrains, namely the conventional 1.6L naturally aspirated power and the 1.4T Blue Whale turbo power, of which the maximum power and peak torque of the 1.6L engine are 128 hp / 161 N · m, matching the 5MT / CVT transmission, and the maximum power and peak torque of the 1.4T engine are 160 hp / 260 Nm, matching the 7DCT transmission, the automatic model NEDC comprehensive fuel consumption is 5.8 L / 100km, the measured blue whale version of the 100 km fuel consumption of 8.43L, fuel economy is average, zero hundred acceleration time performance of 9.32 seconds, in the same level of average, to meet the power needs of the general family.
