In the era of continuous evolution of automotive technology innovation, in the direction of energy drive, fuel is slowly transitioning to new energy. In the design thinking of the cockpit, intelligence has become the design direction of the major host manufacturers for the cockpit interaction. Therefore, in the context of the technological era of intelligent vehicles, the creation of "intelligent cockpits" has become a "necessary" research topic for major car companies.
Changan Auchan brand is one of them, as a young SUV brand independently developed by Changan Group. Changan Auchan launched the "Net Red Hit" such as Changan Auchan X5 in the context of consumption that dominates young sports.
With the advent of the 3.0 automotive intelligence era of "everything can be interconnected", when the automobile consumer market pays more and more attention to the consumer demand of intelligent interconnection interactive experience, Changan Auchan gave the "answer" such as Auchan Z6.
Recently, the new Auchan Z6 has officially passed the quality acceptance of global dealers, and the new car has now opened blind booking. This kind of information shows that it is not too far away from the listing node of Auchan Z6. Under the demand for automobile consumption in the new era, Auchan Z6, known as "automotive robot", has met the consumption pain points of young users for intelligent interaction?
With the theme of "Generation Z", Auchan Z6 is designed to deviate from the movement dominated by Changan Auchan X5 and Changan Auchan X7. In the tone of youthful design, Auchan Z6 emphasizes the futuristic idea of leading intelligence.
The front face grille outlines the triangular cutting process of matrix arrangement with the rigid lines of straight lines, expressing the expression of "prism and mirror design aesthetics". The "triangular elements" of different sizes in the grille layout are overlapping and arranged, showing a dynamic change trend at different angles.
The sharp "Streamer Sharp Eye" headlight group has 36 LED light sources built into one side on one side, and its lamp body profile adopts a three-dimensional design. Daytime running lights are lit with a flowing effect, which is very sci-fi avant-garde recognizable.
Auchan Z6 uses novel elements and different ways of expressing lines to outline the vision of avant-garde technology intelligence. Compared with the traditional car design methods, Auchan Z6 expresses the "intelligent" evolution direction of fuel vehicles at the design level in the design ideas of fuel models.
The sharp and full line outline highlights the picture sense of the Battle Style of the Auchan Z6 mech, and the design ratio of the suspension window design, low window and wide door also highlights the posture of the Auchan Z6 sports coupe SUV.
Of course, the posture of the sports coupe SUV is not only based on the aesthetics of the design, but also creates an excellent low wind resistance coefficient of 0.336Cd for the Auchan Z6.
In the positioning of the compact SUV, the Auchan Z6 is 4699*1890*1660mm in length, width and height, and the wheelbase is 2795mm. Even if it is positioned as a young sports SUV product, it can face the standard data of the hot Haval H6 wheelbase of 2738mm, and the space performance of auchan Z6 under the needs of home is not inferior.
The sporty rear wing at the top of the rear and the exhaust design of the two sides give the Auchan Z6 a strong sporty atmosphere. The taillight shape of the "double sickle hook" type is very distinctive, and with the high brake lights above the tail wing, its lighting effect is very recognizable. The convergence of these many trendy design elements has also created an aesthetic visual sense that young audiences like.
Today, in the general public's concept of consumption, the car is no longer a simple means of transportation. With the continuous enrichment of use scenarios, the car cockpit is more of a "smart scene" with social as the core. Therefore, Auchan Automobile brings "smart happy cockpit" to Auchan Z6 as the "carrier".
Based on intelligent interaction, the "Smart Happy Cockpit" creates 22 large scenes and 226 small scene scene interactions to meet the intelligent needs of young users in an all-round way. In addition to this, Auchan Z6 also created three metaverse avatars.
The first image is the navigator XiaoOu, who exists in a combination of three 10.25-inch instrument screens of different sizes + 12.3-inch central control screen + 9.1-inch Xiaoou screen. The combination of smart screens is intertwined, coupled with the AR information projection of the HUD and the interconnection of mobile phones, the information sharing of multi-screen interaction can be realized in the cockpit.
The second image is the YYDS digital twin image, which allows users to customize the exclusive interactive image through voice reproduction technology and face recognition technology. In the interaction of information communication, users are no longer faced with emotionless robots, but friends, lovers, lovers with "emotional cognition"...
The third image is the "Robot Auchan Z6", which is equipped with the industry's first out-of-car voice interaction function. Sitting in the car can achieve voice interaction outside the car, such as driving to refuel, voice wake-up Z6 simply say "No. 92 gasoline full", no need to get off, Z6 can complete the refueling work with the gas station staff.
Intelligence is not only reflected in the diversified interaction methods, the comprehensiveness of safe driving assistance is also a point of intelligence of Auchan Z6. Auchan Z6 is equipped with Auchan Automotive Eaglepilot 7.0 Cloud Eagle Intelligent Driver Assistance System, and the hardware is equipped with 15 radars, 5 cameras, and 6 highly sensitive microphones.
Many high-precision sensing elements coupled with the intelligence of the auxiliary system even allow Auchan Z6 to achieve full self-service voice parking function operation. Easily solving the problem of parking and entering the garage through voice control is definitely a blessing for most young friends who have just got their driver's licenses.
In this "difficult to adjust" consumer demand environment, Auchan Z6 has launched three sets of powertrains for different user needs. These include 1.5T+7DCT and 2.0T+8AT as well as Blue Whale iDD global hybrid systems.
Among them, 1.5T powertrain, the maximum output power of 138kW, peak torque 300N·m. The book data of this power level is not inferior to the mainstream 1.5T engine on the market, and the powertrain of this set is more about the characteristics of economic application.
The 2.0T+8AT is powered by the Blue Whale's new generation of D-series 2.0T engines, with a maximum output of 171 kW and a peak torque of up to 390 N·m. The excellent power level coupled with the efficient shifting of the 8AT gearbox, this set of powertrains can accelerate the Auchan Z6's 100 km/h in less than 6 seconds.
When hybridization became the mainstream trend, the Blue Whale iDD global hybrid system equipped by Auchan Z6 was powered by the Blue Whale 1.5T engine with a maximum output of 122kW and a peak torque of 255N·m. In addition, it has a power assist with an additional 110 kW motor and a peak torque of 330 N·m. It accelerates to 7.6 seconds from 100 km/h. What is more important is the economic advantage of low fuel consumption under the hybrid characteristics.
From design to configuration and power level, the intelligent positioning of Auchan Z6 reflects the market consumption positioning of young audiences. Indeed, in the choice of domestic brands today, SUVs aimed at the young consumer market are not in the minority. However, in most of the competitors have not yet departed from the design thinking of traditional cars, the intelligence of Auchan Z6 has become a very competitive advantage.
