Larger size, power upgrade, a new generation of Changan Yidong official map released.

For a long time, compact cars have been the first choice for many young people to buy cars. In order to attract more users, manufacturers have also labeled them as fashion, personality and dynamic as product selling points. Among the 100,000-class domestic compact cars, Changan is the year to play, with a good foundation in sales and reputation, and will soon usher in the third generation of models.

Recently, we learned from the official that Changan Automobile has released the official map of its third-generation Yidong, which is expected to be officially unveiled soon. It is worth mentioning that although it is officially called the third generation Yidong, it looks more like Changan, which has been listed before. I wonder what positioning the third generation Yidong will adopt in the future. For reference, the price range of Yidong currently on sale is 72,900-103,900 yuan, and the new Changan Yidong will launch three models.?

What changes have taken place in the new Changan Yidong?

Judging from the official map, the new Chang ‘an Yidong adopts the design language of "vertical and horizontal Vientiane", the front face is replaced with a borderless air intake grille, and the interior of the net is filled with hollow lattice decoration, which looks quite futuristic. In addition, both sides of the new car are also equipped with long and narrow headlight groups, which are decorated with large vertical diversion grooves below, and the visual effect is quite sharp. Generally speaking, this front face style is more common in Changan, and the user acceptance is also high.

On the side of the car body, the new Changan Yidong adopts a dynamic slip-back shape, and the car body lines are relatively smooth and natural. The through waistline and the concave lines of the side skirts cooperate with each other, showing a strong three-dimensional sense. In addition, the popular hidden door handle is not absent, and the double five-spoke blade wheels are also equipped below to further enhance the sense of movement of the whole vehicle.

In terms of body size, the new Changan Yidong has a length, width and height of 4770/1840/1440mm and a wheelbase of 2765mm, respectively, and is positioned as a compact car. From the data point of view, compared with the current model, the new car has improved the length and width of the car body, and the wheelbase has also increased by 65mm, which is expected to have a good space performance.

In the rear part, the new Changan Yidong design has a spoiler similar to duck tail, and the headlights on both sides echo each other, which is also very recognizable after lighting. In addition, the lower surrounding part of the new car is made of a large area of black material, and a two-way exhaust layout is adopted to further reflect the sense of sports atmosphere.

As for the interior of the car, the overall layout and design of the new Changan Yidong is also in line with the current mainstream. There are basically not many physical buttons in the whole car, and more straight lines are used to outline the car, which brings a good sense of visual space, and the center console is also designed. It has a paragraph-like shape and a prominent three-dimensional sense.

In the central control area, the new Changan Yidong is also equipped with a striking 10.25-inch suspended rectangular LCD instrument and a 13.2-inch vertical central control large screen. A large number of functions are integrated in this central control large screen, which looks like a new energy vehicle. Moreover, the new car will add driving recorder, mobile phone interconnection and intelligent voice control system of Xunfei Feiyu OS.

In addition, the central aisle area of the new car is also equipped with a yacht-style electronic gear shifting mechanism, which is simple, compact and easy to operate, and saves a lot of space. It will also provide practical configurations such as wireless charging of front mobile phones and water cup holders.

At present, the new Changan Yidong will be equipped with leather-like seats, and there are a lot of stitches on the seat surface, which is good in texture, but slightly single in functionality. In addition to the basic adjustment function, only the high-end version supports the electric adjustment of the main driver’s seat, and the comfort needs to be improved.

As for the space performance, we mentioned earlier that the body size of the new car has been upgraded. Compared with the old models, the rear legroom of the new car should be more plentiful, but because it is a compact car with a sliding back, the rear head space of the new car should still be slightly cramped.?

Is the power of the new Changan Yidong upgraded?

In terms of power, the new Changan Yidong will be equipped with the NE1.5T turbocharged four-cylinder engine of Blue Whale, with a maximum power of 170 HP (125kW) and a maximum torque of 260 Nm. The transmission system will also be matched with a 7-speed dual-clutch gearbox and a front-wheel drive system.

Compared with the 1.6L naturally aspirated engine and 1.4T engine provided by the current Yidong, the new Changan Yidong will further improve its power performance. It is worth mentioning that the new car or the cancellation of the engine automatic start-stop function, so the fuel consumption under WLTC conditions has also increased slightly to 6.14L/100km.?

How is the configuration performance of the new Changan Yidong?

Judging from the information currently known, the new Changan Yidong should provide three configurations. In addition to the configurations mentioned above, the new car will also be equipped with main and passenger airbags, front side airbags, front row, built-in driving recorder, automatic parking, uphill assist, steep slope descent,,, 540-degree transparent chassis, induction trunk, Bluetooth remote control key, keyless start, LED automatic headlights, electric sunroof, and in-car PM2.5

Relatively speaking, the configuration of the entry-level model is slightly lower, such as the hidden electric door handle, induction wiper, automatic air conditioner and rear seat air outlet. If the budget is a little tight, it is still suggested that the mid-range configuration can be considered, and 17-inch wheels, front and rear head airbags, keyless entry in the driver’s seat, speed-sensing wiper, a SUB interface in the rear row, 4 speakers and automatic air conditioner will be added. These configurations are also practical.

Finally, the high-end version adds lane departure warning, active braking/active safety system, front collision warning, full-speed adaptive cruise, one-button lifting of the whole car window, folding/automatic folding of the exterior rearview mirror, wireless charging of the front mobile phone, electric adjustment of the main driver’s seat, six speakers, etc. For a 100,000-class compact car, these configurations seem to be nothing new. If you have the ability, I suggest to match them all.?

Conclusion:

Generally speaking, Chang ‘an Yidong, as a representative vehicle of this level, has basically reached its due level, with remarkable space in modeling and configuration, and has been further upgraded in terms of space and power. In the future, the third generation of Yidong will be sold together with cash Yidong to meet the needs of different consumers. What do you think about the changes in the new car? Let’s talk together.
