Oil prices are hovering at a high level, and SUVs, which consume more fuel than cars, seem to be unsuitable options for ordinary consumers. However, under the continuous iteration of technology, SUVs can no longer be viewed with old eyes. For example, the best-selling Changan CS75 PLUS, which was once a first-generation model loved by many consumers, can be said to keep pace with the Haval H6. In order to adapt to the current market, they are also constantly launching newer products. Facing strong competitors, how will the second-generation Changan CS75 PLUS perform?

In the power part, although the old 1.5T and 2.0T powers are still continued, in terms of transmission system, the second-generation Changan CS75 PLUS has been replaced with a brand new Aisin 8AT gearbox. The maximum horsepower of the 1.5T model is 188Ps, the peak torque is 300N m, and the fuel consumption under the WLTC comprehensive working condition is 6.4L/100km; the maximum horsepower of the 2.0T model is 233Ps, and the peak torque is 390N m. The fuel consumption is 7.5L/100km. In the past, the 1.5T model that used the 6AT gearbox was also relatively good in terms of performance. After replacing the 8AT gearbox, the fuel consumption and power performance have also improved to a certain extent. However, although the 2.0T model has not changed in terms of power, But there has been a noticeable change in fuel consumption.

All series are equipped with Aisin 8AT as standard, which is more powerful and fuel-efficient. Is Changan CS75 PLUS worth buying?

To achieve this, Changan Automobile's Blue Whale NE engine and matching 8AT gearbox contributed a lot. The power of Changan's own Blue Whale NE engine is at the upper-middle level even in the same class. As for ensuring high-performance output and fuel consumption, the 8AT gearbox has to be mentioned. While ensuring high-efficiency transmission, the shifting is also smoother, bringing consumers a more comfortable driving experience. Many luxury brands are also using the Aisin 8AT gearbox, and the second-generation Changan CS75 PLUS is standard for all series, so the performance of this gearbox is also recognized by many car companies in terms of performance. In fact, for most domestic consumers, Aisin 8AT can meet the usage scenarios of most users, and daily travel does not require frequent high-speed driving, and this gearbox will also provide users with better performance to a certain extent. Control, so many car companies are more inclined to choose Aisin 8AT gearbox. Due to the excellent reputation of Aisin 6AT in the past, it is not surprising to use Aisin 8AT.

If you want to ensure both power and fuel consumption, you must be inseparable from the contribution of the gearbox, and the cost of the gearbox also occupies a relatively large part. An excellent gearbox can not only provide consumers with a better driving experience, but also improve the driving quality. However, a slow-response gearbox will also drive the car. In addition to affecting the ride comfort of the vehicle, it will also increase the fuel consumption of the vehicle, which also increases the cost of the car for consumers to a certain extent. Aisin 6AT and Aisin 8AT, as very mature gearboxes, have also become suppliers of many car companies. As the requirements of national emission standards become higher and higher, many brands have to reduce their displacement. However, in order to ensure that the power will not be reduced, they can only choose gearboxes with more gears. Some car companies have even begun to develop their own gears. More gearboxes, the importance of gearboxes for fuel vehicles is self-evident.

With the sharp rise in oil prices some time ago and the continuous rise of new energy vehicles, and new energy vehicles do not need gearboxes at all, consumers' goals are gradually turning to the new energy market. New energy vehicles have greatly reduced consumers' car costs , which also has a certain blow to fuel vehicles. However, the price of new energy vehicles costing more than 200,000 yuan is an unaffordable choice for some ordinary consumers. Therefore, 100,000-class fuel vehicles have become one of the most competitive markets. At the same time, the driving pleasure of fuel vehicles is something that many consumers cannot give up. of. Although traditional fuel vehicles will pose a threat due to the adjustment of oil prices, it will not affect the status of fuel vehicles in the hearts of consumers. The cost of fuel vehicles is also a very important part for ordinary consumers. Fuel costs are a relatively large source of expenditure, so many car companies are constantly improving this part in order to reduce consumers' car costs.

In terms of appearance, the past Changan CS75 PLUS stood out among many outstanding compact SUVs by virtue of its outstanding appearance. However, the second-generation Changan CS75 PLUS has also updated its appearance. Although it continues the family-style design language, But there are also many bright spots.

In the past, the 1.5T model was slightly shorter in body length than the 2.0T model, while the second-generation Changan CS75 PLUS will have a full body Dimensions are unified.

In addition to its excellent appearance, there are also many details in the interior. For the interior, the second-generation Changan CS75 PLUS adopts a two-color interior style, a three-spoke steering wheel, and a large-size dual-screen. It is equipped with a wealth of intelligent networking systems, providing consumers with more convenient functions. Full of technology atmosphere.

As the head product of the Chinese brand compact SUV, the second-generation Changan CS75 PLUS has spent more costs in order to improve its product strength, such as the new-generation Aisin 8AT gearbox that is standard for the entire series, which is also to a certain extent The above shows that sales and word of mouth need to be supported by cost. Without a good enough configuration and a price that is attractive enough to consumers, it is difficult to beat competitors. This is what many Chinese brands are doing. Improving product power is the first element. . On the contrary, many joint venture brands of the same level did not use the more expensive Aisin 8AT gearbox, but chose the lower-cost CVT gearbox and dual-clutch gearbox. However, as a 100,000-class SUV, the second-generation Changan CS75 PLUS is even comparable to many joint venture brands in terms of configuration, and it also has a great advantage in terms of price.
