In today's serious internal involvement of traditional fuel vehicles, many domestic brands are transforming towards new energy, in addition to the early entry of new forces such as BYD, BAIC New Energy and Wei Xiaoli, traditional car companies such as Geely, Chery, and Changan have also made efforts in this field in recent years. At the recent China Electric Vehicle 100 People's Conference, Changan Automobile unveiled a new masterpiece, which is a pure electric coupe model with the internal code name C385.
It is reported that the car will be the first major model for Changan to enter the high-end electric market, citing the new EPA1 pure electric platform to build, which is Changan's latest development of the high-end intelligent electrification platform, set advanced intelligent networking, electrification and intelligent driving and other technologies in one. As the first model under the platform, the C385 carries the importance of the platform for the first time to face the consumer market, so according to common sense, this product code-named C385 will fully demonstrate the new design and advanced technical system of the EAP1 platform.
The positioning of the car is a B-class pure electric car, the overall size of 4820/1890/1480mm, and the wheelbase is up to 2900mm, compared to the Xiaopeng P7 (4880/1896/1450-2998mm) may be slightly smaller in size, but from the side structure we can see that the car adopts a short front overhang + short rear suspension design, which can allow the cockpit interior to obtain more use space, thereby providing a spacious and transparent riding environment for the car.
On the positive side, the C385 born under the EAP1 platform gives us the first feeling that it is full of sci-fi, which is a design that embodies the avant-garde to the fullest.
The biggest difference between traditional fuel vehicles and electric vehicles is that there is no need for an air intake grille, but many EV models often add virtual grilles for inherent aesthetics and design, Changan C385 is different from these products, and does not add a "superfluous" main grille, but adopts a closed design, so that the front face looks more concise and clean.
The LED daytime lights on both sides adopt a relatively flat, sharp contour design, coupled with the minimalist design of the main light and the grid sub-grille below, which further adds to the visual aesthetics, making people look avant-garde sci-fi at a glance.
In the rear of the vehicle, we can further see the future atmosphere of C385, the internal light point structure of the through-type taillight is very complex, and the three diamond-shaped combinations used by the main light on both sides are very similar to the logo shape of "Mitsubishi", and then the black plating strip embellishment throughout the upper and lower levels is collected, and the visual impact is very strong.
In fact, we can not only see Changan's cognitive ability for aesthetic shaping from the appearance, but also the millimeter-wave radar and ultra-clear camera arranged above the body also reflect the highly intelligent characteristics of the vehicle, it is reported that the car will support L3+ intelligent driving, and also has a remote valet parking function to further enhance the use experience of the vehicle.
As one of the top auto companies in the autonomous field, Changan Automobile's quality and product strength have never disappointed us, from the original traditional fuel vehicles, to products equipped with iDD hybrid systems, and then to the new EAP1 platform to create C385, are the iconic products in various market segments. Although there are already many models in the field of EV and electric "fame", it is believed that relying on the avant-garde design of C385 and the battery of the Ningde era, the electric drive high-frequency pulse heating technology and the good comprehensive performance, there will also be a place in the field of pure electric in the future.
