Six years of research and development, three extreme challenges, Changan Blue Whale iDD what "whale" human strength

In 2020, the goal of "carbon peaking and carbon neutrality" is proposed, and the industry is forced to transform, but at the same time, this is also a good opportunity for the development of the automotive industry, and major OEMs actively transform to embrace electrification. As a leading enterprise of China's auto independent brands, Changan Automobile naturally responds positively to the call of the state and has already opened the curtain of new energy.

At the Shanghai Auto Show in April 2021, Changan Automobile held a strategic press conference to release the "14th Five-Year Plan" and the 2030 Vision to the world, demonstrating to the industry Changan Automobile's firm determination to transform and upgrade to an intelligent low-carbon technology travel company.

In June 2021, on the second anniversary of the launch of the Blue Whale Power brand, Changan Automobile officially released the Blue Whale iDD hybrid system at the Chongqing Auto Show.

In March 2022, the Blue Whale iDD was officially launched on the UNI-K iDD.

In April 2022, Changan Automobile officially released the company's latest strategic plan composed of seven key actions and a new digital pure electric brand "Changan Deep Blue".

This series of fruitful achievements in embracing electrification is now called the "moat" of Changan Automobile, and the blue whale iDD hybrid system that should be mentioned here is especially mentioned, after more than 500 engineers in Changan Automobile's Chongqing R&D center and European R&D center, it has been continuously polished and finally launched in 6 years, which can be said to be highly anticipated by the market. Let's start with how hardcore it really is.

On May 6th, Changan Automobile held a live broadcast event entitled "Attack on Blue Whale - Blue Whale iDD Hardcore Challenge 'Whale Flying Sky'", in which Changan UNI-K iDD equipped with Blue Whale iDD Hybrid System perfectly passed 3 extreme challenges, including:

#鲸心动魄 - Blue Whale iDD Challenge Free-Falling # Challenge Rule is that the vehicle starts from a standstill full of oil in front of the upside-down water balloon, and the sharp object on the roof will scratch the water balloon at the moment the vehicle passes, such as the water in the balloon is not poured on the body, that is, the challenge is successful. This challenge tests the lightning-fast response and momentum of blue whale iDD's start.5

Blue Whale iDD uses pure electricity to start, relying on 85kW of motor peak power and 330N·m peak torque, as well as milliseconds of motor peak torque response, the initial acceleration is very fast, and the instantaneous feeling of pushing back can make the driving full of passion. Equipped with Blue Whale iDD, UNI-K iDD has an acceleration time of 8.1 seconds per 100 kilometers, and the maximum speed can easily exceed 200km/h, and every departure and acceleration can be one step faster.

#身鲸百战 - Blue Whale iDD Bumpy Road Stage "Hollywood" Special Effects #Challenge Rules for vehicles to pass through rough roads such as cobblestone roads, broken roads, bumpy roads, etc., and challenge people to complete the maze ball challenge in the car. This challenge tests the smoothness of the continuous power output of the Blue Whale iDD and the stability of the body.

The Blue Whale iDD hybrid system equipped with UNI-K iDD has excellent NVH performance, and with the help of the high-efficiency Blue Whale triple-clutch electric drive transmission, the output of the two power sources that are already powerful and energetic is more smooth and delicate and silky. Coupled with the combination of the previous McPherson independent suspension and the rear multi-link independent suspension, the vibration filtering ability is extremely strong, and the tire trackability is good, which can bring a smooth and comfortable driving experience.

#鲸出天际: Blue Whale iDD Conquers The Limit Slope # Challenge Rule is to drive a vehicle to impact the 30% and 40% limit ramps of the Chang'an Automobile Mat River Proving Ground, the slope corresponding to the slope angle reaches 16.5° and 21.8° respectively, the slope is accompanied by the increase of height and slope, the challenge difficulty rises exponentially, which tests the low torsional output performance of the Blue Whale iDD.

The Blue Whale iDD equipped with UNI-K iDD adopts the Blue Whale NE1.5T hybrid special engine and the Blue Whale triple-clutch electric drive transmission, with a maximum transmission efficiency of 97% and a system comprehensive torque of up to 590N·m. In the process of vehicle climbing, the two power sources of the motor and engine of the Blue Whale iDD and the multi-gear transmission work together to achieve hybrid operation in full gear, ensuring strong and sustained low torque output, and fearless of various ramp challenges.

There is no doubt that UNI-K iDD has demonstrated its product strength in this challenge, which is attractive enough for consumers who pursue driving pleasure.

Not only that, with the blessing of the Blue Whale iDD hybrid system, the comprehensive endurance of UNI-K iDD can reach 1100km, the comprehensive fuel consumption of NEDC is 0.8L/100km, and the fuel consumption of the KAPP is as low as 5L/100km, which is far ahead in the same class.

Write at the end

The Blue Whale iDD hybrid system allows us to see the technical strength of Changan Automobile in the new track of new energy vehicles. In the future, Changan Automobile will continue to accelerate its transformation and look forward to bringing us more surprises.
