As we all know, although the competition in the automobile market is very fierce, but also from time to time there will be "dark horses" appear, looking back at the past automobile market, once known as "dark horses" models such as Baojun 510, Jietu X70, BYD Qin PLUS series and other domestic cars, there are also tanyue, Haoying and Tuyue and other joint venture cars. These "dark horse" models have changed the original market pattern to a large extent.
In the first month of the year of 2022, there is also a "dark horse" in the automobile market, this car is Changan Automobile's Changan CS55, as one of the important members of the Changan Automobile CS family, Changan CS55 has formed a series, the series includes CS55 and CS55 PLUS, the market positioning is a compact SUV, in the past 2021, Changan CS55 series cumulative sales for the whole year was 140579 units, and last December sales were 14352 units.
In January this year, the monthly sales of the Changan CS55 series exceeded 30,000 units, reaching 30,316 units, achieving a month-on-month increase of 111.23% and a year-on-year increase of 135.63%, ranking third in the single-month sales list of SUVs in the first month of 2022. The market performance of the car and the Haval H6 and Changan CS75 series are basically standing on the same starting line, which has great signs and momentum of impacting the annual sales crown.
In fact, careful car friends and netizens will find that after the renewal and name of Changan CS55 PLUS in September last year, the car has already appeared signs of rise, but did not expect that in the first month of 2022, the market performance of the Changan CS55 series will come to a "big outbreak", with single-month sales exceeding 30,000 units, approaching the market performance of haval H6 and Changan CS75 series, which really surprised many car friends and netizens.
The main consumer group in the market is slightly lower than the Changan CS75 PLUS, the Changan CS55 PLUS, priced at 92,900 yuan, with a length of 4515mm, and a wheelbase of 2656mm, and some models have a length of 4500mm and a wheelbase of 2650mm. It is equipped with a 1.5T power combination, which can reach up to 300 Nm of torque, which is matched by a 6MT and 7DCT transmission.
In terms of configuration, Changan CS55 PLUS is differentiated according to different prices, such as tire pressure display, parallel assist, lane departure warning, fatigue driving tips, 360-degree panoramic image, full-speed adaptive cruise, steep slope slow descent, open panoramic sunroof and front seat heating, etc., which will be reflected in models with different prices. Moreover, the Internet of Vehicles equipped with Changan CS55 PLUS supports OTA upgrades. Overall, the sincerity presented by Changan CS55 PLUS is still very satisfactory.
In the face of the quiet rise of the Changan CS55 series, it is estimated that many competitors will be impressed by it, after all, the monthly sales of more than 30,000 units, not everyone can do it, if there is no strong enough product force, it is easy to stand out in the cruel market competition! For some models with weak product strength, it is difficult to reach 30,000 units even in a year.
But then again, although the Changan CS55 series in the first month of the market performance is very fierce, but the market competition pressure it faces is not small, after all, in the compact SUV segment, there are also BYD Song PLUS DM-i, Geely Boyue, Honda CR-V and Haval Divine Beast and other quite a lot of powerful models, Changan CS55 series can continue to maintain such a strong momentum, for the Changan CS55 series is also a big challenge, you say?
