In the context of peers setting up high-end electric vehicles separately, Changan Automobile's actions seem to be a little out of rhythm. I haven't been able to see a representative work for a long time. Fortunately, at last year's science and technology ecology conference, a new pure electric car codenamed C385 was released, and the avant-garde sci-fi exterior design immediately made this car gain a lot of attention. The appearance is more handsome than Tesla Model 3, and Huawei technology support, Changan has another new car to attack
In terms of design, the C385 is somewhat similar to Changan's other hot model, UNI-V, or more like an electric version of UNI-V. A closed grille has been added to the front face, and the sharp lines show a good visual impact. The headlight adopts a split design, and the lower lamp adopts a matrix structure, providing a good sense of technology.
The side looks quite dynamic, the concave shape under the door panel highlights the visual three-dimensional sense, the body posture is in a low front and back high posture, with the upper slip-back roof, showing a light and dynamic feeling, I believe it can capture the recognition of many young buyers. In the details, the C385 also retains electric vehicle features, such as hidden door handles and wheel hubs that reduce wind resistance. According to the information previously declared, the length, width and height of the new car are 4800 *1880 *1480mm, and the wheelbase is 2880mm.
The rear of the car uses through-type taillights, the recognition is quite good, equipped with a large horizontal spoiler, the combat atmosphere is full, only because of the identity of the electric vehicle, resulting in the lack of exhaust ports below.
In terms of configuration, the C385 will be equipped with APA7.0 remote unmanned valet parking system, which can achieve the effect of "coming and going". According to the introduction, the owner can get off the car outside the garage, the vehicle line up by itself through the entrance gate, find the parking space by itself, and when leaving the scene, there is no need for the owner to find the car, but the vehicle comes to find the owner, and the whole process does not require human supervision, which is completely completed by the vehicle independently.
In terms of power, there are not many details for the time being, but it can be known from the current that the car will use high-frequency pulse heating technology, which can heat the battery from -30 °C to the appropriate operating temperature of 20 °C within 5 minutes, and reduce the battery life discount caused by low temperature as much as possible.
The car is built based on the CHN platform, which is not designed and built by Changan alone, but by The three major manufacturers of Changan, Huawei and CATL. The specific situation is that Changan is responsible for developing the system, coordinating the supply chain, and manufacturing the whole vehicle and a series of tests; Huawei is responsible for driving the motor, electronic control system and intelligent cockpit, so the car version of the Hongmeng OS can be expected; ningde era is responsible for providing power battery solutions. Therefore, with these three top companies in the industry to develop and build, C385 should be able to show a good performance of product strength.
There is also an uncertain place about this car is whether it will still be sold with Changan's LOGO in the future. After all, whether it is from the factory car given by the previous official or the real car picture taken on the side of the road, there is no Chang'an LOGO. According to some gossip, on the eve of the Beijing Auto Show, a new electric vehicle brand "CD" will be released, and the C385 is the first car to support the new brand. Recently, there is news that the CD brand will be changed to Kaiyuan Automobile, and there are already relevant public accounts, what kind of arrangement, but also need to be officially released publicly.
summary
Regarding the C385 car, its emergence also means that the mainstream electric vehicle market will usher in a strong competitor. With its avant-garde and dynamic appearance coupled with rich intelligent configuration and Huawei's technical support, there are definitely many highlights after the release. As long as the price is within a reasonable range, I believe that many consumers will be willing to give it a chance.
