In 2019, Changan Automobile launched the CS75PLUS, and the new car quickly occupied the market as soon as it was launched, becoming one of the best-selling models in the compact SUV market, and still has super competitiveness until now. According to the latest sales data of the Association of Automobile Associations, in January, the sales volume of the Changan CS75 series exceeded 30,000 units again, second only to the Haval H6 in the sales ranking of the entire SUV market, and the main sales source of the CS75 series is actually CS75PLUS, that is, the current CS75PLUS still has super competitiveness.
In January, Changan Automobile opened the pre-sale of the second generation of CS75PLUS, to know that the current CS75PLUS was only listed in 2019, less than three years to replace in the car circle is also very rare. From the perspective of pre-sale effect, the second-generation CS75PLUS has won 15,000 orders in 20 days, and the potential for explosive models has been highlighted. So, how did the second-generation CS75PLUS achieve the first fire before it was listed? Through the test drive, the author has the answer in mind.
New look, choose from two styles
First of all, in terms of design, when the original CS75PLUS was just listed in 2019, high value has always been its label, and in this era of looking at faces, the second generation of CS75PLUS has advanced again in design compared to the original model. The new car as a whole is a significantly enhanced sense of technology, providing two styles of "V" whaletail wave grille and crystal matrix grille. At the same time, the front face through the LED daytime running lights belt also has this folded design inside, which is very detailed.
In terms of side design, compared with the current model, there is not much change, and it still continues the muscular line design, and the dynamic sense is not stable. The vehicle has reached 4700mm in length and 2710mm in wheelbase, which is also the best size in a compact SUV.
It is worth mentioning that the second row of the second-generation CS75PLUS not only supports backrest adjustment, but also achieves horizontal inversion, and the trunk volume can reach 1450L after the second discharge is poured, even if the second discharge is not dumped, the trunk also has a large volume of 620L, which further emphasizes the properties of the home SUV.
Finally, in the design of the tail, although the change in the tail has not been drastically changed like the front face, the tail light has also adopted a new design, and it is very obvious that the design of the through tail light is adopted, which is very recognizable after lighting. In addition, the 2.0T model also adopts a bilateral four-out exhaust hole layout, which has a strong visual impact.
Minimalistic but not simple interior design
Entering the car, the evolution of the second-generation CS75PLUS is also everywhere, from the double 12.3-inch large joint screen to the contrasting color, from the simple layout to the large-area leather including, on the surface, the second-generation Changan CS75 PLUS is creating a trendy, avant-garde driving atmosphere, but in fact, the new car has made enough efforts in intelligence, and this change is not even at all lost to the mainstream "new car-making forces".
For example, the second-generation CS75PLUS is equipped with Face ID face recognition function, when the driver sits in the driver's seat, the Face ID face recognition function will automatically identify the driver's identity, so that the car can also recognize people. There is also intelligent W-HUD head-up display technology, which allows the driver not to look down at the dashboard, and the W-HUD will capture the driver's gaze in the most comfortable position.
In addition, the second-generation CS75PLUS has an APA5.0 remote-controlled valet parking function, with this function, even novices can quickly complete accurate parking like old drivers. More importantly, if you accidentally drive the car into a dead end, it is easy for many people to drive in, but it is difficult to pour it out, and then the second-generation CS65PLUS equipped with the track reversing function can come in handy, which can accurately record the driving path and reverse the original path according to the trajectory.
Another point that has to be mentioned is that when you smoke in the car, the system will automatically detect it, at which time the window will automatically open and open the air purification system. At the same time, when the system detects that the PM2.5 in the car exceeds the standard, the system will automatically turn on the PM2.5 filter to ensure the health of the air in the car at all times.
The power is upgraded again, and the whole series is equipped with a Aisin 8AT gearbox as standard
The upgrade of the powertrain is the second generation of CS75PLUS is the most obvious change, we all know that aisin 8AT gearbox began to achieve the second generation of CS75PLUS on the full series of standard, including 1.5T models are also equipped with Aisin 8AT gearbox, at the same price can do Aisin 8AT gearbox standard, there is and only the second generation of CS75PLUS to do.
However, it is a pity that the model I drove this time is still 2.0T, and there is no test drive to the 1.5T engine with the Aisin 8AT gearbox. However, this 2.0T engine has also been upgraded, equipped with a new generation of Changan Blue Whale 2.0T engine, the maximum power reached 171kW, the maximum torque reached 390N·m, under the blessing of Aisin 8AT gearbox, both starting and accelerating performance is very good.
As for the chassis tuning, the performance of the second-generation CS75PLUS also did not disappoint the author, after the bumpy road can effectively filter out most of the vibrations, the overall tuning although more biased towards the home, but in the on-the-road or on the ramp These curves are more urgent road conditions, there is not much sense of rolling in the car, and the steering wheel steering is also very light, which is still relatively friendly for female friends.
Write at the end:
The second-generation CS75 PLUS equipped with Aisin 8AT transmission in the whole series can be said to be a very special existence in the same level, which also puts a lot of pressure on the joint venture SUV, after all, the gearbox equipped with the mainstream joint venture SUV on the market is not dual clutch or CVT, which is far from the Aisin 8AT gearbox in terms of quality and driving experience. What's more, the second-generation CS75PLUS has further improved in terms of intelligence. It is no wonder that new cars have been ordered before they are even on the market.
