When Changan UNI-V was officially listed, the pattern of compact sports cars of independent brands was basically settled. However, compared with the high opening and high play of Lynk & Co, Changan UNI-V and Shadow Leopard will be more affordable in terms of price. It is precisely because the prices of the two models are similar and the tonality is similar, so that some consumers inevitably do not know how to choose when choosing. Therefore, today we will use these two models to make a comparison to see which one is more suitable for you in front of the screen.
It may be strange that the two models that focus on "sports" come up first than the space. But in fact, with the wider use of automobiles, consumers obviously have a higher pursuit of the "functionality" of automobiles, especially for independent brands, consumers almost wish that vehicles are all-round.
From the data point of view, the length and width of Changan UNI-V is 4680*1838*1430mm, and the wheelbase is 2750; the length and width of Shadow Leopard is 4700*1820*1432mm, and the wheelbase is 2736mm. In contrast, the outer shape of the shadow leopard will be larger, while the Changan UNI-V is more refined in visual effects, which is also in line with its own pursuit of sporty attributes.

The wheelbase between the two is not much different, but specific to the ride space, it is the shadow leopard with backward data that is better. In contrast, the back shape of Changan UNI-V will have a certain impact, resulting in limited head space. Shadow Leopard performs relatively well in both leg space and head space. Of course, if compared with the mainstream models of the same level on the market at present, in fact, the performance of both cars is only decent, but it is relatively better than Shadow Leopard.

In the storage space of the trunk, the two models performed quite closely. Moreover, both models have achieved a flat trunk platform, supporting 4/6 of the seats, ensuring the practicality and expansion of the trunk. Incidentally, the trunk opening of the Changan UNI-V has a larger inclination angle, which is more convenient when placing items.
Although it is a model that emphasizes the sporty attribute, both cars have obviously made sufficient efforts in technology. Only the specific effects are presented, but there are differences between the two, which can be seen from the difference in configuration between the two.
First of all, in terms of driving assistance functions, Changan UNI-V "does fine work" in the cruise system and auxiliary images, equipped with panoramic images and full-speed adaptive cruises that are rare at the same price; while Shadow Leopard pays more attention to quantity, and adds lane keeping assistance systems and road traffic sign recognition on the basis of ensuring practicality.
In terms of comfort configuration performance, Shadow Leopard will be better than Changan UNI-V, which is specifically manifested in seat heating, temperature partition control and PM2.5 filter device in the car. Overall, in contrast, Shadow Leopard will be able to provide a travel environment with more seating space, better internal air circulation and more comfortable temperature distribution.
However, in the equipment of the technology configuration, the performance of Changan UNI-V will be much better, and the advantages of this part can be said to be the full display of Changan's brand power. It is not difficult to see from the table below that Changan UNI-V has a clear lead in science and technology, which also means that if you are a consumer who pursues a sense of technology and likes to try fresh "things", then Changan UNI-V will undoubtedly make you more satisfied.
Overall, both models have done a good job in shaping the interior space and creating the atmosphere, and have a strong brand style compared to the same class. However, the two models show different development directions in the display of configuration, so everyone can choose the two models according to their actual car needs. Of course, if your budget is high enough, the difference between the configurations of the two models will be further smoothed out, and you may wish to leave the room for choice below.
Changan UNI-V is equipped with a power combination of 1.5T+7DCT, with a maximum horsepower of 188Ps and a peak torque of 300N·m; The Shadow Leopard is also equipped with a power combination of 1.5T+7DCT, with a maximum horsepower of 177Ps and a peak torque of 270N·m. From the parameters point of view, the performance of the two models is good enough, even ahead of most of the similar models on the market, in line with their own "sporty" label.
In terms of actual dynamic performance, the two models have obviously different driving styles. Changan UNI-V is more similar to the home on the basis of both sports, although the parameters on the book are more beautiful, but it is very "comfortable" to drive, the electronic taste is relatively strong, showing a brisk, flexible driving experience. Overall, he doesn't give you an invigorating and violent acceleration experience, or a tense and stimulating cornering performance, but is closer to giving people a tight, brisk and smooth sense of movement.
In contrast, the shadow leopard will be more rough in the acceleration performance, appear more direct, reduce the power output a lot of modification, although the feel also has a strong electronic taste, but in the sensory stimulation to have a more impact. It can be said that the performance of Shadow Leopard is exactly the opposite of Changan UNI-V, which is based on emphasizing sports attributes and has a certain urban adjustment, so that you will not be in a tight driving all the time.
The two models are similar in price, both use two sets of exterior designs, and both are equipped with a power combination of 1.5T + 7DCT, and there are indeed too many close places. But in fact, these two models have obviously different feelings in use, Changan UNI-V has a stronger sense of technology and is easier to drive; shadow leopard has more space and is relatively rough to drive. Therefore, how to choose the two models, I believe you should have the answer at this time.
