AutoBeta(AutoBeta.net)02/28 Report--

Since Changan launched several new models last year, sales have risen in the "open-hanging" style. Especially after Changan CS75 and UNI-T, the first model of Changan UNI series, there has been a high market reaction, and the second model of the series, UNI-K, has attracted market attention before it is put on the market. Today, the model also officially opened for pre-sale, launching four models with a price range of 15.79-188900 yuan.

As the first model of the UNI series, UNI-T is positioned as a compact SUV, in order to enrich the product line of the series, the second model, UNI-K, is positioned as a medium-sized SUV. It is reported that the new car will officially go on sale on March 21.

It is worth mentioning that since the Changan UNI-K will be the first model to be sold directly in Changan, officials had previously said it had received blind orders for 4000 units. According to the pre-price information suspected of the car, the car has been priced at 17.99-194900 yuan, but now the price range is 15.79-188900 yuan, which is indeed a bit of a surprise.

In terms of appearance, the new car is based on the Vision-V concept car and uses a borderless forward air grille design. The front face is an inverted trapezoidal grille, while the middle grid design is quite scaly, which gives people the feeling that there is no intake grille for new energy vehicles as a whole. In addition, the new car also retains the split headlamp design, LED daytime driving lights shape narrow, so that the new car looks more sci-fi.

From the side, the car uses a high waistline design to run through the taillights, and the side windows look slightly narrow, with a thick and powerful visual effect. At the same time, the door handle adopts the current mainstream hidden design of electric vehicles, in order to reduce the wind resistance in the driving process. The length, width and height of the overall size are 4865mm/1948mm/1700mm and wheelbase 2890mm respectively. The rear side in addition to the use of back shape, what is more exaggerated is that the car uses a bilateral exhaust, just like a supercar SUV.

The new car uses a new family design language in the interior, and the combination of large-size central control screen and full LCD dashboard creates a strong sense of science and technology. In configuration, the new car provides different styles of rims and skylights for consumers to choose from.

In terms of power, the Changan UNI-K is equipped with the latest Blue Whale 2.0T turbocharged engine, which has a great improvement in power, fuel consumption, emissions and other performance; this engine can output up to 233hp, peak power 171KW, and the maximum speed can exceed 200Km/h.

At present, Changan Automobile already has the best-selling SUV model Changan CS75, which has been in the second place in the domestic SUV market for many months, which means that Changan no longer needs a volume model. The launch of the UNI series is more like Geely's Lecker to match the standard joint venture brand models. Through the technology which is lower than the joint venture brand and better than the joint venture brand, we can achieve the goal of decentralized grabbing the domestic SUV market share and reflecting the quality development goal of Changan brand.
