On April 21, Changan Automobile's new digital pure electric brand Changan Deep Blue released its first new car, the C385. As a blockbuster of Changan's layout of the electric track, Changan Deep Blue C385 has achieved "three arrows at the same time", and the three power versions of pure electricity, extended range and hydrogen power have been unveiled simultaneously.
Changan Deep Blue is the latest move of Changan Automobile in the field of new energy vehicles, indicating its determination to completely transform. Changan Automobile has made it clear that it will officially stop selling traditional fuel vehicles in 2025, and new energy sales will reach 1.05 million, accounting for 35%. This also means that Changan Automobile will achieve ten times the sales of new energy vehicles in the next four years.
With the arrival of Changan Deep Blue, Changan Automobile will form a new matrix of "Avita + Changan Deep Blue" in the field of new energy, and the "division of labor" of the two major brands is also more clear: Avita is responsible for the high-end intelligent pure electricity market, and Changan Deep Blue is facing the more popular mainstream new energy market.
Technologist "Ride the Waves"
As a leading independent brand, Changan Automobile has split Changan New Energy from the automotive business sector in 2018, and completed multiple rounds of financing, introducing strategic investors including Changxin Equity Fund, Liangjiang Fund, Southern Industrial Fund, Nanjing Runke Industry and other strategic investors. However, Changan Automobile still holds 48.95% of the equity of Changan New Energy, making it the largest shareholder.
Changan Deep Blue is a special platform for electric drives in the form of multi-energy replenishment that Changan Automobile has been honing and building for five years, which will bring more possibilities for Changan Automobile to "accelerate running" in the field of new energy.
Changan Deep Blue All-Electric Digital Platform redefines the leadership of the three-electric system through deep integration of All in One, which is safer and more efficient, and has the "four high" attributes: the electrical efficiency driven by the ultimate power system, the later drive as the gene, taking into account the high performance of the four-wheel drive, the high intelligence based on the domain-controlled electronic and electrical architecture, and the high security of the three-layer protection of the core car cloud. The technology upgrade solves the current pain points in new aspects such as battery life, energy replenishment and safety in new energy vehicles, and satisfies users' imagination of beautiful travel through efficient environmental protection, digital experience and ultimate performance.
Changan's new generation of super-collector electric drive system has 163 patented technologies, which can achieve the highest efficiency of 95%, and the world's first micro-core high-frequency pulse heating technology can increase the low-temperature power performance of the battery to 50% in the extremely cold weather of -30 °C, shorten the low-temperature charging time by 15%, and improve the pain points of electric vehicles in winter. The extended range power system based on the high compression ratio depth Atkinson cycle can achieve the ultimate efficiency of about 3.3 degrees of 1L oil power generation; the hydrogen fuel cell system of the autonomous car can achieve the effect of 1kg hydrogen power generation of 20.5 degrees and 3 minutes of ultra-fast energy replenishment, which not only takes the lead in mass production in the industry, but also further promotes the marketization process of hydrogen fuel cell vehicles.
Of course, a good electric car never comes at the expense of driving pleasure. Changan Deep Blue All-Electric Digital Platform has also poured a lot of effort into improving the performance of vehicles. Its rear-wheel drive + four-wheel drive expansion mode, compatible with the extended range, hydrogen fuel cell two major power systems, through the new generation of brake dual redundancy system and H arm multi-link independent suspension system, 50:50 gold shaft-to-load ratio, and the ultimate driving performance tuning, giving the EPA1 platform excellent handling performance and excellent NVH experience.
In addition, the platform can also have smart highlights such as OTA speed upgrade, Changan smart core, high-computing power intelligent cockpit, intelligent driving domain controller and so on. 3 minutes can complete the car upgrade, remote speed diagnosis full coverage, according to the high-precision map to achieve automatic parking, remote driving, the highest L4 level intelligent driving and other convenient travel, these are more in line with the needs of young people in the high-tech era? The three-layer safety architecture of the core car cloud gives a 360° all-round guarantee for battery collision safety, overheating protection and data security.
C385 "Three Arrows At The Same Time"
The Changan Deep Blue C385, which debuted this time, is equipped with many industry-leading technology and intelligent technology configurations, which can be described as the leading technology of Changan Deep Blue.
Designed in a minimalist style, the Changan Navy C385 adopts the more popular slip-back design, integrates a large number of scientific and technological and sporty design elements, with a body size of 4820 * 1890 * 1480mm and a wheelbase of 2900mm. In terms of size, the body data is larger than the Model 3, and the wheelbase has exceeded the standard of B-class cars, almost reaching the level of C-class cars. Visually, the aspect ratio is 0.78, the axle length ratio is 0.6, and the sense of movement of the forward dive creates a perfectly balanced body proportion.
The C385 is equipped with the largest 19-inch wheels in its class, a 14.6-inch sunflower screen with intelligent steering in the car, and an electric hatchback door. At the same time, the three power versions of the C385 also have good product performance. Under CLTC conditions, the comprehensive working range of the pure electric version with endurance-based version can reach more than 700 kilometers, the maximum power of the performance-based version can reach more than 190 kilowatts, and the power consumption is as low as 12.3 kWh/100 km or less; the cruising range of the extended range full oil and full power under the comprehensive working conditions of CLTC can reach more than 1200 km, the cruising range of pure electric comprehensive working conditions can reach more than 200 km, and the fuel consumption of feeder is as low as 4.5 liters/100 km or less.
The hydrogen version has a cruising range of more than 700 kilometers under the comprehensive CLTC standard working conditions, and the hydrogen consumption of feed is as low as 0.65 kg/100km or less, which can achieve 3 minutes of ultra-fast energy replenishment. This will also be China's first mass-produced hydrogen fuel cell sedan.
