Since its listing in 2019, Changan CS75PLUS has occupied the top three sales of its own brand SUVs for many years. Entering 2022, Changan Automobile's second-generation CS75PLUS will also usher in the official listing. Before going public, we test-drove the second-generation CS75PLUS in Chongqing to see what advantages this "car of tomorrow" evolved from a new configuration can maintain a hot selling trend in the increasingly competitive automotive market.
In the process of test driving, I can't help but sigh that the technological development is really great, Changan Automobile's second-generation CS75PLUS feels better than the Volkswagen Tiguan bought at home a few years ago, whether it is the exterior interior, intelligent system allows you to fully experience the advanced sense of technology, the label of "Tomorrow's Car" is worthy of the name, and the pre-sale price of 127,900-154,900 is also really fragrant. Compared with the first generation, let's talk about a few highlights of the second generation in the test drive process:
The strongest power in its class, the driving control is optimal
The second-generation CS75PLUS series is equipped with a new generation of Blue Whale engine + a Aisin 8AT transmission as standard. It starts briskly and when accelerating, the power connection is smooth. In normal mode, when cruising at high speed, the legal speed limit point of 120km/h can be reached quickly, and the power reserve is sufficient, which makes people feel very safe. Fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is about 7L.
Compared to the old model, the gear shift response is faster and smoother. The entire series is equipped with Aisin's new generation 8-speed manual transmission, which is on the same platform as the luxury brand AT. As one of the most successful gearboxes in history, the reputation of Aisin's 8AT gearbox is of course questionable. Reliable and stable, smooth gear changes, rapid response, smooth and comfortable multi-gear switching.
The sense of science and technology is explosive, and the practicality is stronger
One of the features that impressed me the most during the test drive was the intelligent W-HUD head-up display technology (which is installed in some models). HuD heads-up display on luxury cars is basically standard, but for most models, enjoying the benefits of this black technology can only be modified. Changan managed to implement this technology in a model in its early 100,000s. Moreover, Changan can analyze the user's sitting height in real time, as well as the visual position of the eyeball, so that the display information within the 9-inch range is always in the best perspective when the user is seated, making reading more relaxed This technology can ensure that your eyes are focused on the front, pay attention to the road conditions, and reduce the safety hazards caused by the low-head operation. A very small technology, the sense of technology is explosive, and the practicality is very strong.
In addition to other models of common intelligent parking and other car machine system, in this car there are: based on massive face data support, can achieve Face ID face recognition, after successful recognition, light brakes can start the car, air conditioning, multimedia automatic adjustment to the driver's common state; intelligent gesture control, fatigue monitoring and early warning, intelligent child care system, irregular behavior prompt function, the most cutting-edge scientific and technological means on the market are used, enhancing the competitiveness of the second generation of CS75PLUS.
The intelligent system is more intimate and in line with the daily life habits of modern people. For example, the steering wheel has an exclusive "WeChat" function key, one-click sending and receiving information, convenient and fast; support full voice interaction, only move the mouth and do not move, in the driving process to send and receive WeChat does not affect safe driving.
The value of the face can hit the space can be installed
The overall appearance has not changed much compared with the previous generation, and it is worth mentioning the full LED light group, which is brighter and more beautiful.
The interior looks like the texture of two or three hundred thousand models, an integrated multi-function steering wheel, an 8.1° caring curved double screen, a brilliant star-studded skin, a double color-block yacht-style electronic shift handle, and a suspension center console. The workmanship is finer than Tesla's.
The back row can be completely reclined, like a bed. When poured down, the storage volume is doubled. Useful for long trips.
brief summary:
The second generation of CS75PLUS also has a lot of thoughtful upgrade design, which is worth experiencing. The strongest power of the same level, the appearance of fashion and luxury, the intelligent and intimate car system, the price of more than 100,000 yuan, the cost performance of the second generation CS75PLUS has reached the limit, and I believe that it can continue to write the sales legend.
