On April 21, Changan Automobile's "Foreseeing Deep Blue, Reaching the Future" technology sharing meeting was held online. At the press conference, Changan Automobile introduced in detail the EPA1, the digital platform of Changan Deep Blue, and announced more product information about Changan Deep Blue's first strategic model, the C385.
Yang Dayong, vice president of Changan Automobile, said that the reason why Changan Automobile launched a new brand and named Changan Deep Blue is mainly determined to create a new digital travel technology brand and bring consumers a diversified experience beyond this era.
Changan Deep Blue is a new digital pure electric brand, the brand name symbolizes exploration, life, technology and the future. The value brought to consumers is multi-dimensional and diversified. Specifically, Changan Deep Blue will provide four major values for new energy users of Generation Z: one is to innovate and reconstruct, through forward-looking innovative product design and industry-leading platform architecture, reconstruct users' cognition and imagination of future travel; second, the Internet of Everything: build a digital ecology of Skynet Interconnection to achieve unlimited expansion of all-digital scenes; third, experience at will: provide smart and interesting functional scenes and personalized customized smart services to help users freely broaden the boundaries of experience The fourth is low-carbon life: adhering to the concept of green and low-carbon sustainable development, providing efficient travel solutions and promoting the sustainable coexistence of man and nature.
At the press conference, Deng Chenghao, general manager of Changan New Energy, interpreted the EPA1 of Changan Deep Blue All-Electric Digital Platform. The platform will be equipped with the C385, the first model of Changan Deep Blue, to officially usher in the mass production moment.
From the launch of the EPA1 platform development in 2017 to today, 5 years to grind a sword. EPA1 platform This is a full-track pure electric drive dedicated platform that takes into account the future travel prospects and today's car experience, with four high attributes of "high efficiency, high performance, high intelligence and high safety".
High efficiency: The platform adopts Changan's new generation of super collector electric drive, with a maximum efficiency of 95%. In the technology of super-collector electric drive, the cumulative number of patents applied for by Changan Automobile has reached 163. It is worth mentioning that its world-first micro-core high-frequency pulse heating technology can achieve extreme heating at ultra-low temperatures, which greatly alleviates the experience of electric vehicles in extremely cold weather. The first mass-produced autonomous car range extension system and autonomous car hydrogen fuel cell system also have ultra-high power generation efficiency and ultra-long stack life.
High performance: The EPA1 platform is a platform for the future wheel drive as a gene and supports the expansion of dual motors and four-wheel drive. The maximum output of a single motor is 190 kW, and the first car C385 accelerates by 5.9 seconds per 100 km/h. The platform is equipped with the latest generation of brake dual redundancy system + H arm multi-link independent suspension system and 50:50 front and rear gold axle-to-load ratio + wide body, low center of gravity, so that the vehicle has better handling performance.
High intelligence: Based on three domain-controlled electrical and electronic architectures, the EPA1 platform supports global speed OTA. "Changan Smart Core" is Changan's first intelligent vehicle domain controller, with more than 80 patents; it adopts a multi-core and multi-system layout mode, integrates more than 1500 core devices, and realizes 100% coverage of remote diagnosis, which is 70% higher than the performance of split controllers and 70% lower in volume. The high-power intelligent cockpit domain controller adopts a Qualcomm 8155 chip with 105K DMIPS hash rate. Intelligent driving domain controllers can achieve up to L4 level intelligent driving.
High security: three-layer security architecture of core car cloud, 360-degree security guarantee. The platform meets the C-NCAP five-star security standard, has 5+1 information security and privacy protection, and develops iBC digital battery butler in battery security to effectively avoid battery thermal runaway.
Deng Chenghao, General Manager of Changan New Energy, introduced the product highlights of Changan Deep Blue's first strategic model, the C385. The body size of the new car is 4820*1890*1480mm, the wheelbase is 2900mm, and the wind resistance coefficient is 0.23Cd. The whole series is rear-wheel drive and equipped with a rear H-arm type multi-link independent suspension system.
Under CLTC conditions, the C385 pure electric version of the comprehensive working condition cruising range of more than 700 km, the maximum power up to 190 kW or more, the power consumption as low as 12.3 kWh / 100 km or less; the extended range version of the full oil full of electricity comprehensive working conditions the cruising range of more than 1200 km, the simple electric comprehensive working conditions of the cruising range of more than 200 km, the fuel consumption of the feeder is as low as 4.5L/100 km or less, the hydrogen version of the comprehensive working conditions of the cruising range of more than 700 km, The consumption of feed hydrogen is as low as 0.65 kg/100km or less, which can achieve ultra-fast energy replenishment in 3 minutes. This will be China's first mass-produced hydrogen fuel cell sedan.
In addition, the C385 is also equipped with a 14.6-inch sunflower screen for intelligent steering, electric hatchback doors, 19-inch wheels, frameless doors, hidden door handles and other eye-catching configurations.
The acceleration of the EPA1 all-electric digital platform and C385 allows us to see the determination and efforts of Changan Automobile to transform into an intelligent and low-carbon travel technology company. It is believed that in the future, Changan Deep Blue will bring you a better digital travel experience and promote the high-quality development of China's new energy automobile industry.
