This is the true ultimate body Changan UNI-V long-term test power chapter

Bitauto Original A long time ago, my colleagues and I got a Changan UNI-V 2.0T model. After this period of use, we have a lot of experience with this domestically produced five-door hatchback coupe. gain a deeper understanding. It also brings you a series of long-term test experience content. Friends who are interested can click on the portal below, but please remember to come back.

As the last article of the long-term test system, we are finally going to talk about what everyone is most concerned about.The powertrain and driving experience are improved. There is enough time this time, so let’s talk slowly.

In fact, when UNI-V was first launched, the deepest impression on me was that it was an absolutely handsome coupe. Unexpectedly, 3 months later, the 2.0T model would be officially launched. The high-end Shadow Leopard and MG6 Pro have taken the lead in this market.

The UNI-V 2.0T model is equipped with Blue Whale's new generation 2.0T high-pressure direct injection engine, with a maximum power of 171kW (233Ps)/5500rpm and a maximum torque of 390N·m/1900-3300rpm. Such parameters are enough to make a car that weighs no more than 1.5 tons become solidly violent.

All UNI-V series are equipped with a front roof bar as standard, but I personally feel that the 2.0T is a real necessity for the front roof bar.

In terms of transmission, it is matched with an 8-speed automatic manual gearbox from Aisin. Although it is the same as Changan's other 2.0T models, it has a different style in tuning. The performance-oriented tuning gives this engine a crisper shifting speed.

Paddle shifters are also essential for such a car with excellent performance. When you want to further experience the driving pleasure, it is the best accelerant.

Behind the gear lever is the knob of the driving mode selection system. UNI-V has five driving modes: comfort, standard, sport, linkage and SUPER RACE.

At the same time, we can also adjust the steering assist mode and body stability control system in the Vehicle Center-Driving page.

The test car is equipped with 18-inch multi-spoke wheels, and the tires are Continental MC6 series tires with specifications of 235/45 R18, which have excellent road holding and sportiness. The braking system uses Italian ITT high-performance brake pads, which are resistant to high temperatures and have excellent braking ability.

The suspension uses a combination of front MacPherson and rear multi-link independent suspension, whose performance we will discuss in detail later.

This UNI-V 2.0T has been in my hands for a long time, and I do a lot of daily commuting, but here we will first talk about how this power system performs in the most SUPER RACE mode. After all, this It is also what many netizens are more concerned about.

Thanks to the powerful power of the 2.0T engine, UNI-V 2.0T will appear very powerful in the SUPER RACE mode. Just tap the accelerator and the power will spurt out. Friends who use it for the first time will probably be a little surprised. .

And at full throttle output, that hearty feeling will definitelyIt's addictive. The acceleration performance of the 2.0T model in the middle and rear sections is more extreme, the confidence is more confident, and the push-back feeling is more lasting.

In the SUPER RACE mode, the gearbox will delay the shift timing to about 3000rpm. However, when accelerating sharply after deceleration, the downshift speed response of the gearbox is not very positive. But for an original car, such requirements are actually a bit too harsh.

In addition, when the SUPER RACE mode is turned on, UNI-V supports ejection start. Of course, we recommend that you do not experience it on the open road, safety first.

The electric rear wing can provide up to 25KG of downforce when opened, and its other major function is the incomparable satisfaction you feel when you see it unfolding in the rearview mirror.

In terms of chassis, the suspension damping is set to moderate softness and hardness. This setting is to ensure daily driving comfort. During intense driving, the shock absorbers can still provide sufficient support even under the highest continuous pressure.

In terms of control, UNI-V's front direction is very precise, and it is very easy to operate with the small-sized steering wheel. And thanks to the DTV dynamic torque vectoring control system, it can accurately control the driving trajectory according to the driver's intention. The integration of man and car may be a bit exaggerated, but it is definitely not a boast.

After switching to other driving modes, UNI-V can also provide a more comfortable and comfortable driving experience. The abundant but not aggressive output mode and smooth gear changes can transform it into a qualified family car. Sedan.

But from a driving perspective, the UNI-V 2.0T model is also at the ceiling of the 150,000 price range. The powerful power, solid chassis, sensitive control and thrilling sports exhaust will undoubtedly hit the hearts of young consumers. It is not difficult to achieve pure sportiness or comfort, but how to flexibly switch between the two will test the skills of engineers. Even in comfort mode, UNI-V 2.0T can provide a comfortable and interesting driving experience, and daily transportation will not make people feel uncomfortable like some performance cars, which is particularly rare.

Summary:

This time we have finally come to an end of the long-term test of UNI-V 2.0T. This five-door hatchback coupe, which delivered 100,000 units in just 9 months last year, has proven its power with its sales volume. Product strength and market recognition. In this era where there are more and more new energy models, Changan Automobile can still make efforts to launch such a sports-oriented model, which is undoubtedly good news for many young consumers. If you don’t want to regret the era of fuel vehicles in the future, then you might as well try UNI-V 2.0T!
