Affected by the rise in international refined oil prices, domestic oil prices have also reached an unprecedented height, and the No. 95 gasoline in many places has even exceeded the 9 yuan mark. Many netizens directly called out that the car has become the biggest burden of life, and it costs a lot of money to refuel every month. As a result, sensible consumers are eyeing electric vehicles that don't refuel.
For example, my cousin, when he was a few years ago, he prepared a budget of more than 200,000 yuan to prepare for the Accord/Camry type of oil truck. But with the rise in oil prices, his goal has shifted to the Xiaopeng P7 at the beginning of the year. Just recently, he changed the target model again, asked why, he bluntly said, to wait for the just released Changan Deep Blue C385. So, compared to Xiaopeng P7, is Changan Deep Blue C385 really so fragrant?
Xiaopeng P7 aesthetic fatigue? Changan Navy C385 has a more personality appearance
Less than 30 years old, when buying a car, the first thing to pay attention to must be the appearance. As representatives of their respective families, Changan CS85 and Xiaopeng P7 have a good appearance performance, but in the details, the difference between the two still exists.
Like Tesla Model 3, the appearance of Xiaopeng P7 is also more sci-fi, it through the fusion between the gradient surface and the body, so that its body in maintaining the dynamic tension at the same time, but also presents a cross-border shape, the style of the whole car is relatively sporty, which is also the mainstream of the new forces of car manufacturing nowadays. Not only that, in some details, Xiaopeng P7 is also equipped with through-line lights, hidden door handles, etc., which meets the needs of consumers for simple wind.
In contrast, Changan Deep Blue C385, although this car also applies the same closed front face of Tesla Model 3 and Xiaopeng P7 models, in terms of details, the performance of this car is more personalized. For example, under the LED headlights of this car is a diamond-shaped mesh accessory, and the entire front face looks more sporty. At the same time, the vehicle adopts the shape of the slipback, equipped with through-type taillights and a larger size spoiler, the design of the whole vehicle is also very visual impact, compared with the Xiaopeng P7 this type of model, you can better show their own differences.
When considering the appearance, space is also a link that cannot be ignored. Positioning medium-sized cars, Changan Navy C385 has a length, width and height of 4820/1890/1480mm and a wheelbase of 2900mm, which has a good performance in the same class. Although the wheelbase is not as good as the 2998mm of the Xiaopeng P7, such a size parameter is still sufficient for home travel. As for the actual experience, the experience can be scored after the listing.
Xiaopeng P7 is very smart, and the Changan Deep Blue C385 experience is also not bad
In addition to the exterior, the interior design of the car is also very critical. Sitting in the Xiaopeng P7 car, two large-size car screens are particularly eye-catching, of which the 10.25-inch LCD dashboard can intuitively display the various states of the vehicle, coupled with the feature-rich machine screen, the handling experience of the whole vehicle is also very good. Not only that, the wrapping of soft and leather materials also brings a very good sense of refinement and grade to the car.
But then again, to say that smart and luxurious, Changan models are also not bad, which is reflected in Changan's fuel body. Now in the body of Changan Deep Blue C385, we once again see intelligent positioning. When it comes to intelligence, we have to mention Changan's EPA1 platform.
Borrowing from the official statement, this platform divides the whole vehicle into three domain control functions: intelligent vehicle control, intelligent cockpit and intelligent driving, and the three domain controllers independently developed by Changan are responsible for the data processing of the whole vehicle. In the smart cockpit with the most consumer perception and the most intuitive, Changan Deep Blue C385 will also be equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 processors to ensure the smoothness of the interactive experience in the smart cockpit to a greater extent, and improve the comfort and convenience of everyone's car.
At present, the interior picture of this car has also been officially exposed, from the exposed picture, the interior design of Changan Deep Blue C385 is relatively simple, and the steering wheel adopts a flat bottom two-frame design, coupled with a full LCD instrument and a suspension central control screen, the scientific and technological atmosphere of the whole vehicle is also very obvious. At the same time, because the interior of this car does not have too many physical buttons and knobs, we speculate that the intelligent configuration of this car will also be relatively rich.
Xiaopeng P7 only has pure electricity, and Changan Dark Blue C385 walks on three legs
If you want to buy a new energy model that suits you, the power and endurance of the car also have to look. Let's take the 2022 Xiaopeng P7 670N+ model as an example, this car is equipped with a second-generation permanent magnet synchronous motor with a maximum power of 196 kW and a peak torque of 390 N·m, and the maximum cruising range under NEDC conditions is 670 km. Coupled with the single-speed transmission, the zero-hundred acceleration event of this car is only 6.7 seconds, reaching the power performance of many 2.0T high-power models.
In contrast, the power of The Changan Deep Blue C385 is also relatively rich. At present, the EPA1 platform has 4 key technologies: first, Changan's new generation of electric drive, the highest efficiency of this technology can reach 95%, can meet the electric drive system, range extended range system and hydrogen fuel system multiple dimensions; second, the world's first micro-core high-frequency pulse heating, can improve the low temperature performance of this car; the third is the first mass production of independent car range system, can ensure a long endurance; fourth, the first mass production of independent car hydrogen fuel cell system, can achieve rapid power replenishment.
For example, the car code-named C385 will use an electric motor with a maximum power of 190kW, and the single-motor rear-drive model will accelerate 5.9 seconds per 100 kilometers. Referring to the official statement, this car also supports the expansion of dual motors and four-wheel drive in the later stage, so the performance of the later model will be improved again on the basis of the current model. At the same time, CLTC's standard power consumption is about 12.3kWh/100km, and the cruising range reaches 700km, which has more advantages over the same level of pure electric models.
Not only that, but this car will also provide two powertrain systems: extended range electric and fuel cell electric. Among them, the comprehensive endurance of the extended range hybrid model can reach more than 1200km, and the pure electric endurance can reach more than 200km; the comprehensive endurance of hydrogen fuel cell models can reach 700km, and the feed hydrogen consumption is 0.65kg per 100 kilometers, which can achieve 3 minutes of ultra-fast energy replenishment. As for which power configuration to choose, everyone can choose according to their actual needs.
Conclusion:
Although Changan Deep Blue C385 has not yet been officially listed, from the information that has been exposed one after another, this car has a good performance in both appearance and interior. Coupled with the multiple power technologies derived from the EPA1 platform and the cutting-edge intelligent configuration experience, the cost performance of the whole vehicle is also very high.
From the Camry/Accord years ago, to the Xiaopeng P7 years ago, and then to today's Changan Deep Blue C385, my cousin expressed his own views, buying a car, only buying the right, not buying expensive!
If you buy a car, are you willing to start the Xiaopeng P7 now, or wait for the Changan CS85? Everyone is welcome to leave a message in the comment area to discuss.
