If a car wants to indulge, the power system is undoubtedly the core, and the level of the power system also represents the core competitiveness of the brand. In recent years, domestic independent brands have made sufficient efforts in the research and development and manufacturing of power systems, and excellent products have emerged in an endless stream, among which The Blue Whale Power under Chang'an has the most eye-catching performance, not only winning various industry awards, but also receiving unanimous praise from consumers. At the end of 2021, Chang'an held a conference with the theme of "Attack on the Blue Whale!" YYDS！ The theme of the live broadcast event, Blue Whale Power's powerful performance skills shocked the four seats, and also for Changan Automobile's 2021 strong end!

In the 2021 CTCC China Auto Venues Professional League, Changan Auto Blue Whale Team won the first shot in its first expedition, successfully winning the 1.5T era championship and breaking the fastest lap record in many races. In addition, Blue Whale Power has not only won the "China Heart" Top Ten Engines for many consecutive years, but also won the 2021 CTCC "Official Recommended Best Engine" award. The dazzling performance in the event and the blessing of multiple awards are enough to prove the "hegemony" status of Blue Whale Power in the entire industry.
At the live event, Wan Jincun, the annual champion from the Blue Whale Team, appeared gorgeously and drove the CS55PLUS, a compact SUV powered by 1.5T Blue Whale, for a live challenge. With the powerful acceleration performance of the Blue Whale engine, the impulse effect challenge was a complete success. Subsequently, at the Western Automobile Proving Ground in Chongqing, CS55PLUS successfully pulled three heavy-duty tractors with a full load of 24 cars and a total mass of more than 90 tons, proving the strong power of the Blue Whale engine with "seeing is believing". This time the "Attack on the Blue Whale!"

The NE 1.5T Blue Whale engine is full of power
Blue Whale 7-speed dual-clutch non-sense switching
The Blue Whale power system, which is now renowned in the entire automotive industry, is not only the focus of this live broadcast event, but also the core of Changan Automobile's product strength, so what is the superiority of this power system?
As the power core of the whole car, Blue Whale's new generation NE 1.5T high-pressure direct injection engine is jointly developed by the engineers of Changan Headquarters and the Changan Center in the United Kingdom, adhering to the leading concept of "strength, static and net" in the research and development process, creating excellent products with maximum power of 138kW and peak torque of 300N·m, and the problem of turbine hysteresis often criticized by consumers has also been completely solved on this Blue Whale engine. Compared with the previous generation of Blue Whale engines, the net power of the new generation of machines has increased by 8%, but the fuel consumption level has reached a staggering 5.9L/100km, which has greatly reduced emissions and reduced the cost of cars for users under the general trend of energy saving and emission reduction. With the rise of fuel prices and the further pursuit of high-quality driving experience by users, the advantages of blue whale engines are becoming more and more obvious, especially the attraction of young people who are the main consumer force is very significant, which is also fully confirmed in the composition of the user group of the "blue whale family", and the vast majority of blue whale series owners are young people in their twenties.
Such an excellent performance of the engine must have a number of world-leading technology as a support, including dual outlet integrated exhaust manifold, double scroll electronic control turbocharging, Smart phaser + external high-efficiency water cooling and intercooling technology can effectively improve combustion efficiency, to ensure the surging power of the vehicle; "AGILE agile" efficient ultra-clean combustion system with intelligent lubrication system, it can reduce the friction of the whole machine, so that it achieves excellent fuel economy; NVH control technology includes silent chain, dual mass flywheel and shock absorbing springs , can achieve deep-sea level silence in the cockpit. Under the guarantee of a number of leading technologies, users can not only experience the surging power of blue whales in the process of using the car, but also feel the comfortable and silent experience beyond the same level. In the past, the core technology has always been the soft underbelly of its own brand, and now Changan has firmly grasped the core technology of the Blue Whale engine in its hands, which not only shows the rapid development of domestic technology, but also paves the way for the future to far surpass joint ventures and imported products.
As the saying goes, "a good horse with a good saddle", a surging engine also needs an equally good gearbox to provide perfect power performance. Blue Whale's 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission is equipped with a number of innovative technologies such as intelligent pre-shifting, and the transmission efficiency has reached 94.3%, almost achieving a lossless power output. And the gearbox can achieve rapid and gentle gear switching, completely saying goodbye to the gear shifting setback. After 8 years of intensive research and development and verification by millions of consumers, Blue Whale's 7-speed wet dual-clutch product performance is also reliable enough.
The power combination of the NE 1.5T Blue Whale engine + blue whale 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission has reached the world's leading technical level, which is also the key to Blue Whale Power's multiple awards and victory in CTCC events. I have to say that in recent years, the technical development of Changan Automobile has been obvious to all, Blue Whale Power has become a well-known business card of the entire automobile market, under the world's leading technical support, the power and driving performance of Blue Whale series models have significant advantages over the same level of models.

More than 20 million users witness changan's high quality
In today's modular and platform-based automobile research and development and manufacturing, the performance of a single model can no longer be used as a criterion for judging the strength of automotive products, and the high-level platform is enough to represent the high quality of a series of automotive products, and the Blue Whale NE power platform is one of the leaders.
As the first power modular platform in China, the emergence of the Blue Whale NE platform has filled the gap in the field of china's automotive platform development. After four years of intensive research and development by the global R&D team relying on "six countries and nine places", the Blue Whale power platform integrates almost all the global cutting-edge technologies of the internal combustion engine, and presets the electrification scheme, which can be compatible with 48V, HEV, PHEV, REEV design a variety of power systems. In the past, Volkswagen's MQB platform, Toyota's TNGA structure are beautiful brand business cards, the concept of "good platform to produce good cars" has also been accepted by most consumers, and in recent years of market inspection, it is not difficult to find that the technical content and power output of the Blue Whale power platform have reached the world's most advanced level, and even have the outstanding performance of catching up with MQB and TNGA, which also provides a solid technical guarantee for Changan's excellent products.
The sales performance of the car is enough to prove the consumer's recognition of the brand, a few years ago, there was a huge sales gap between the independent brand and the joint venture brand, but in the past two years, there have been earth-shaking changes. In the first 11 months of 2021 alone, Changan Automobile completed the sales of 2122511 units, an increase of 17.7% year-on-year, and has surpassed the total sales volume in 2020 to become the well-deserved leader of the Chinese auto market.
