This time, taking the opportunity of the "Chang'an UNI-Z Ten Cities Dynamic Challenge Ten Thousand Miles", the editor followed the Chang'an UNI-Z team and drove all the way from Chongqing to Hangzhou in one go, with a total distance of 1,600 kilometers. In this video, let's talk about the long-distance feeling of this car.
The Changan UNI-Z is equipped with a 1.5L HE hybrid engine + P1 + P3 dual motors, with a P3 motor output of 158kW, an engine output of 72kW, and a WLTC fuel consumption of 5.15L/100km.
How does it perform at high speeds? Is there a risk of lack of power or even stalling like some P1+P3 power? When we run the battery to about 20% of the feed-in state, we use the extended range mode, which can continue to increase the speed of the vehicle to 150-160 km/h, and in the intelligent hybrid mode (that is, plug-in hybrid mode), the engine can be directly driven in parallel, superimposed with the power of the motor, and the speed can be increased to 180 km/h very smoothly, and it is in the case of three adults sitting in the car.
The reason for this is that at a speed of 100 km/h on the highway, the power output required by the vehicle is only about thirty or forty kilowatts, and if you want to maintain 120-140 km/h, you actually only need forty or fifty kilowatts of output. In the case of rapid acceleration, for example, it needs to be increased from 120 km/h to 160 km/h, in addition to the maximum power output of the engine can be more than 70 kilowatts (converted into electrical energy to supply the power motor), the battery can also have 70 or 80 kilowatts of power output (the whole duration can last about 30 seconds), with a total of 140-150kW of instantaneous output, which is enough to meet the acceleration needs of Changan UNI-Z.
Of course, the high power output of the battery for a period of time must consume electricity, so after the acceleration is over, it enters the constant cruising state, and the engine rotates while converting the mechanical energy into electrical energy to supply the power motor, while converting the excess energy into electrical energy and storing it in the battery (the battery does not output energy at this time).
In addition, the new Blue Whale l1.5L HE hybrid engine has a high thermal efficiency of 43.31%, which can continue to work in the high-efficiency range, so even if it is only 72kW on paper, it can also ensure abundant power generation and power retention capacity.
In addition, Changan UNI-Z engine, generator, and power motor adopt coaxial design, compact and sturdy structure, high integration, safety and small power loss are also important reasons.
Thanks to the high integration and high efficiency of the whole system, in the intelligent hybrid mode, the long-distance measured fuel consumption of Changan UNI-Z is at least 5L/100 km (when there are three people in the car), which is even lower than the official 5.15L/100 km.
In addition, the car also has three power modes of range extension, hybrid, and pure electric, and the driver can choose to use range extension (in this mode, the engine and the wheel end are completely decoupled) or hybrid (arranged by the computer to drive in series or in parallel, and the engine intervenes in direct drive if necessary), and the two modes of range extension and hybrid have their own advantageous scenarios, and Changan UNI-Z gives the choice to the user.
The performance of this car in this long-distance trip is very eye-catching, twin electric hybrid, plug-in hybrid can be extended, and one car has two power modes, bringing us a new car experience!
