Under the impact of the tide of "new four modernizations" (electrification, networking, intelligence, and sharing), the automotive industry is facing major changes that have not been encountered in a hundred years, technology is still the biggest factor driving changes in the industry, and toyota, Volkswagen, and Honda, the giants of the car industry, are the beneficiaries of technological change.
In this "new four modernization" movement, the wave of electrification is the largest.
Speaking of electrification, everyone thinks of pure electric vehicle EV, yes, pure electric vehicles are developing rapidly, but the large hybrid in a broader sense (including oil-electric hybrid HEV, plug-in hybrid PHEV, extender electric REEV) is underestimated by everyone.
Statistics show that in 2021, the sales volume of generalized hybrid in the domestic market, that is, plug-in hybrid + oil-electric hybrid, has exceeded 1.2 million vehicles, an increase of more than 140% year-on-year.
PHEV ushered in a big outbreak,
UNI-K iDD will be available tomorrow
Entering 2022, plug-in hybrid PHEV began to explode. In January this year, it achieved sales of 85,000 units, an increase of 200% year-on-year, far exceeding the 127% growth rate of pure electric vehicles (BEVs). This is the second time that the growth rate of plug-in mixing has exceeded that of pure electricity in the fourth quarter of last year, and this trend shows no sign of stopping.
PHEV short-distance electricity, long-distance oil, but also enjoy free purchase tax, green card and other policies, suitable for most Chinese families with only one car.
The previous PHEV did not sell well, the reason is very simple: one is that the pure electric endurance is too short, and the NEDC endurance is between 50-80 kilometers; the second is that the performance of the power is too poor, which can be described as "a dragon with electricity, a worm without electricity"; the third is that the price is too expensive.
Now the new PHEV basically solves the above problems, pure electric endurance is generally more than 100 kilometers, the power consumption has also achieved 5-6L/100km, the most important thing is that the price has dropped.
BYD Tang DM-i is widely popular in the market, the Great Wall mocha DHT-PHEV has just been listed, and the UNI-K iDD, which was officially launched on March 10, is particularly eye-catching, and the pre-price of the car is 176,900-192,900 yuan.
NEDC comprehensive endurance 1100km,
"0 anxiety" travel
Changan UNI-K iDD has a length, width and height of 4865/1948/1690mm, and a wheelbase of 2890mm, as a medium-sized plug-in SUV, 17.69-192,900 yuan shocked the outside world.
What is this concept? Compared with competitors, it is 12,900 yuan lower than the Tang DM-i 52KM luxury type; if it is a joint venture model, 176,900 yuan together with the class fuel vehicle can not be bought, let alone PHEV, the lower level of Tiguan L PHEV is 70,000 yuan more expensive than the UNI-K iDD.
The technical content of UNI-K iDD is much higher than that of fuel vehicles, oilable and electric, AND NEDC has a comprehensive range of 1100 kilometers, truly realizing "0 anxiety" driving in "full speed domain", "full field domain", "full temperature domain" and "full time domain". For a private car, the most important value is the freedom to travel as you go.
There is a dragon of electricity,
NEDC has a pure electric range of 130 km
UNI-K iDD is not only affordable, but also highly technical.
As a PHEV, the first thing to see is its performance when it is powered. With the support of 30.74kWh large-capacity battery pack, UNI-K iDD NEDC has a pure electric endurance of 130 kilometers, which is 18 kilometers more than Tang DM-i, and can actually run to about 100 kilometers.
In EV mode, the UNI-K iDD feels like a pure electric vehicle. Pure electric start, relying on strong torque, and millisecond motor peak torque response, quiet and smooth, fully meet the needs of daily commuting.
UNI-K iDD is equipped with 6.6kW AC fast charge and DC fast charge as standard, and supports 220V home charging function, fast charge, slow charge can be. In addition, it is also equipped with a 3.3kW external discharge gun, which can meet the diversified living needs of users in the field such as lighting, cooking, and reverse charging.
As for the safety of the battery, Changan has long considered it for you. UNI-K iDD uses the highest current IP68 waterproof rating for battery packs, and most OF THE PHEV models on sale use IP67 waterproof rating.
There is no significant attenuation of low power
The most important indicator to measure a PHEV is not only pure electric endurance, but also mainly the performance of power. Sometimes it is inconvenient to charge, then it is necessary to drive in the case of power shortage, and its performance largely determines user satisfaction.
UNI-K iDD NEDC power consumption as low as 5L/100km, what is the concept? This is the lowest among mainstream mid-size plug-in SUVs, 0.5L lower than the Don DM-i's 5.5L.
If you get the fuel vehicle field, it is equivalent to the level of Honda Lingpai 180 Turbo, which is equipped with a 1.0T + CVT powertrain, and its comprehensive fuel consumption of 100 kilometers is exactly 5.0L, while UNI-K iDD is a medium-sized SUV with a curb weight of 2075 kg, and Lingpai is a compact sedan of 1300 kg.
Now, No. 92 oil has soared to 8 yuan / liter, and there is no sign of stopping, and it is about to run to 9 yuan, saving fuel not only carbon, but also saving money.
At the test drive in Zhuhai, after a distance of more than 150 kilometers, we measured the fuel consumption of 3.0L/100km, which is quite an amazing data.
During the test drive in Zhuhai, the measured fuel consumption in heV mode was 3.0L/100km.
But what surprised us the most was not fuel consumption, but its power performance.
UNI-K iDD is full of power, whether it is in low-speed starting, high-speed overtaking, extreme speed track and other states, it can ensure an instantaneous power explosion.
There is not much difference in power output between power and no electricity, and there is no significant attenuation at low power.
What's more, whether in the case of high or low power, its dynamic performance is almost the same, "there is a dragon with electricity, a worm without electricity", UNI-K iDD will not have such an embarrassment.
Especially in terms of smoothness, UNI-K iDD's performance is also unexpected, even if it is violently abused, it can still bring smooth feedback, which is very surprising to us.
Even in the state of rapid power, the UNI-K iDD hybrid operation of the HEV in full gear continuously outputs maximum torque, ensuring that the acceleration overtaking is full of power, 80-120KM/h can still maintain acceleration, and always bring the driver a smooth acceleration experience.
Such a superior power performance can not fail to mention that it is equipped with a special engine for Blue Whale NE1.5T hybrid, with a maximum power of 125 kW and a maximum torque of 260 N·m.
The performance of this powertrain reflects that PHEV has put down the crutch of policy dividends, broken through the bottleneck, and achieved "ultra-low power consumption, ultra-high pure electric endurance, and the lowest price difference with fuel vehicles" on UNI-K iDD.
Three driving modes,
The driving mode can be customized
Changan UNI-K iDD also offers three driving modes: EV, HEV and i-X (Aichuang Space). Among them, in the i-X driving mode, you can also "customize" mode three modes (surging power", "camping", "Buddhist long battery life"), users can add 3 custom modes according to their driving habits and preferences.
When test driving in Zhuhai, the first thing to do when getting on the car was to switch the driving mode to i-X power surging mode, and then turn on the air conditioner to the maximum, while frequent acceleration and braking, trying to exhaust the power first.
Why? Because we want to know what is the difference between the fuel consumption, power and smoothness of the UNI-K iDD in the case of battery with and without electricity?
The UNI-K iDD has an acceleration time of 8.1s from 0-100km/h and an acceleration time of 4.2s from 0-60km/h, and the top speed easily exceeds 200km/h.
As expected, the UNI-K iDD can ensure an instantaneous power explosion in the state of low-speed starting, high-speed overtaking, and extreme speed track, providing users with a comfortable experience. 0-100km-h acceleration time of 8.1s, the top speed easily exceeded 200km/h.
Why does the UNI-K iDD, which weighs more than 2 tons, run so fast? Because the torque output characteristics of the motor are better than those of the engine.
Knowledgeable people know that even an engine with a T needs to reach the peak of torque output after 1500-3000 rpm, and if it is a naturally aspirated engine, it takes 3000 rpm to achieve it; and the motor is different, almost a start to reach the maximum torque.
With the participation of the motor, the PHEV will start significantly faster than the fuel vehicle. The maximum power of the Blue Whale iDD hybrid system is 85 kW and the maximum torque is 330 Nm.
The actual power performance of this powertrain of the UNI-K iDD completely surpasses many SUVs equipped with 2.0T or even 2.3T engines in the same class.
It is worth mentioning that the UNI-K iDD is equipped with the horse brand MC6 high-performance sports tires, which have a strong grip and can "land" the output torque strength of the Blue Whale iDD hybrid system.
Blue Whale iDD Hybrid System,
Fish and bear paws are both
How does UNI-K iDD achieve both fish and bear paws (powerful and energy efficient)? This has to mention the Blue Whale iDD Hybrid System.
The system consists of four parts: Blue Whale NE1.5T hybrid special engine, Blue Whale triple-clutch electric drive transmission, high-capacity PHEV battery and iDD intelligent control system.
The UNI-K iDD uses a P2 structure between the engine and the electric motor, that is, a series hybrid architecture. In HEV mode, the Changan UNI-K iDD engine and the electric motor will cooperate to output power, giving priority to pure electric driving, but deep throttle, the engine can also provide a strong power output, the process of intervention is almost imperceptible.
Benefiting from the excellent controller and transmission, whether it is starting, accelerating or overtaking at high speed, Changan UNI-K iDD can achieve stable power output.
In addition, the UNI-K iDD is equipped with a smart control system, which enables key components such as engines, motors, and transmissions to be kept in an efficient working range for a long time. In the state of power shortage, it saves more than 40% of fuel compared with traditional fuel vehicles. It is worth mentioning that the linkage navigation predicts congested road conditions, adjusts the power strategy in real time, and provides a longer EV output time, that is, in most cases, the UNI-K iDD is close to an EV.
Summary: The emergence of UNI-K iDD not only makes it one of the most cost-effective PHEVs on the market at present, but also one of the most enjoyable PHEVs, which improves Changan's layout in the field of PHEV. In the future, other models of the Changan UNI series will also launch iDD versions to empower Changan Automobile's new energy transformation.
