On March 28th, the car circle not only has Xiaomi SU7, a "large flow" model, officially launched, but also a new member of the Changan UNI series, which was also listed on the 28th, and it is Changan UNI-Z. In contrast, the Changan UNI-Z is an A+-class plug-in hybrid SUV, which is a competitor to BYD's Song PLUS DM-i. Not only that, the official guide price of the Changan UNI-Z car after its final launch was set at 117,900 yuan, which was nearly 12,000 yuan cheaper than the Song PLUS DM-i. So speaking of which, let's take a look at the Changan UNI-Z car and how its product performs.
First of all, it is worth mentioning that the three models currently on sale in Changan UNI-Z are all given a pure electric range (CLTC) of 125 kilometers, which can be regarded as equal in this regard. Of course, in terms of power system, the three versions of Changan UNI-Z are equipped with a 1.5T self-aspirated engine (98 hp) and a front-mounted motor with a maximum power of 158kW, so that Changan UNI-Z has an acceleration performance of 7.4 seconds to break 100. Compared with Song PLUS DM-i, Changan UNI-Z has indeed achieved crushing in this regard, but the crushing I am referring to is only a simple data crushing, as for the actual performance, we can only draw conclusions after test driving comparison.
In terms of appearance, Changan UNI-Z adopts the family design of the UNI series, and the grille of the entire front face uses a highly recognizable inverted trapezoidal borderless grille, and coupled with the sharp daytime running light strips on both sides, it can also create an obvious sense of youth, fashion and sportiness. Not only that, the entry-level model of Changan UNI-Z is also equipped with 19-inch wheels as standard, and the wheel style retains the design style of Changan Auchan Z6 iDD, which will also look younger and sportier. It is also worth noting that Changan UNI-Z also integrates an exterior camera in the B-pillar area, which also allows the car to have a face recognition way to open the door, which is convenient for users to use in scenarios such as forgetting to take the key.
In addition, the floating design in the C-pillar area, as well as the rear spoiler at the end of the rear and the new style of continuous taillight clusters, also show the young and fashionable sports atmosphere. In addition, in terms of body size, the length, width and height of Changan UNI-Z have come to 4730/1890/1660 mm, and the wheelbase is 2795 mm, which is not bad with Song PLUS DM-i.
In terms of interior, the central control layout of Changan UNI-Z has been replaced with the latest family-style design language, such as a two-spoke flat-bottomed steering wheel, and a 14.6-inch central control screen, plus the vehicle provides an orange-based interior color, which at first glance is somewhat similar to Changan's dark blue S7. However, it is worth mentioning that Changan UNI-Z does not use a pocket gear shifter, and still retains the classic electronic yacht gear handle of Changan gasoline cars.
In addition, in terms of functional configuration, the entry version of Changan UNI-Z is equipped with L2 level auxiliary driving system as standard, and there are 540° panoramic image, electric adjustment of the main driver's seat, as well as remote start, electric tailgate and on-board KSong function, etc. And it is worth noting that the entry-level model of Changan UNI-Z is also equipped with seat ventilation function as standard, which is very friendly to users in the south, and at the same time, it is also a relatively bright performance among models in the same price range.
In addition to these, the high-end models of Changan UNI-Z also give Sony audio system, 64-color interior atmosphere lights, panoramic sunroof and other hardware configurations to enhance the atmosphere of the interior environment. Not only that, but there are also automatic parking in the car, front seat heating, memory, and car air purifier, etc., so as to further improve the user's car experience.
Editor's summary
As a facelifted model of Changan Auchan Z6 iDD, Changan UNI-Z's biggest advantage is probably that it belongs to Chang'an itself, after having a serious Chang'an standard, I believe that its product competitiveness is stronger than the previous Changan Auchan Z6 iDD. Although Changan UNI-Z is a product of the oil-to-electric platform, in terms of the product positioning of this car itself and the starting price of 117,900 yuan, I personally think that Changan UNI-Z is still quite cost-effective. So at the end, what are your different views or suggestions on the Changan UNI-Z car, you may wish to leave a message in the comment area for interaction.
