(|) The shape is dynamic and has three power options: extended range version, pure electric version and hydrogen energy version.The price range is 16.89-69 9,900 yuan…
● New car features
The Changan Deep Blue SL03 is the first product based on the new EPA1 pure electric platform. In appearance, the different power versions of the new car are basically the same in the overall design concept, using a closed front face shape, and the headlight group adopts a split design. The LED daytime running lights above have a certain degree of recognition. The far and near light group below is well integrated with the front surround in the ventilation openings on both sides. For different power versions, only some details reflect the unique characteristics of different versions. According to the official, the wind resistance coefficient of the Changan Deep Blue SL03 is 0.23Cd.
On the side of the body, the overall proportion of the Changan dark blue SL03 is coordinated, and the smooth roof lines cooperate with the window and door ratio of nearly 2:1, which makes the new car look full of aura. In addition, it also adopts the design of hidden door handles and frameless doors. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4820/1890/1480mm, and the wheelbase is 2900mm. It is positioned in a medium-sized car, which is a circle larger than the familiar Model 3.
In the rear part of the car, the new car adopts a "star flame through-type tail light group", the layout of the tail lights is very distinctive, and it has a high degree of recognition after lighting. The rear surround of the new car is equipped with a tail diffuser decoration, and the overall details match to show the sports atmosphere of the new car.
In the interior part, the new car adopts a full LCD instrument panel, a double-spoke multi-function steering wheel, and a 14.6-inch smart steering sunflower screen, which gives the central control screen a maximum rotation function of 15 degrees left and right. The overall layout of the interior is also relatively simple, and the black panel and gray roof are just right.
In terms of configuration, the Changan Deep Blue SL03 will be equipped with the intelligent vehicle domain controller Changan Smart Core and the intelligent cockpit domain controller (Qualcomm 8155 chip), and support the OTA upgrade of the whole vehicle. In other configurations, the 1.9 square meter panoramic canopy is equipped with Low-E glass to effectively block 99% of ultraviolet rays, and the heat insulation rate is 80%. Hidden trend, 14 SONY speakers, AR-HUD, intelligent voice assistant, full cockpit intelligent scene (there are 9 modes), NFC card unlocking, Bluetooth key intelligent sensing, etc. also appear in the car.
In terms of power, the new car has a pure electric version, an extended range version and a hydrogen electric version. The pure electric and extended range versions are mainly sold to general consumers, and the hydrogen energy version is mainly sold to the B end. In terms of power, the pure electric version is equipped with 160kW and 190kW motors, with a peak torque of 320N · m. The battery capacity is divided into 58.1 degrees and 79.97 degrees (both ternary lithium batteries), and the comprehensive cruising range is 515km and 705km. Among them, the 515km battery life + 190kW version can "break 100" in 5.9 seconds.

Changan Deep Blue SL03 Extended Range Edition can achieve short-distance electricity and long-distance oil consumption. Under CLTC conditions, 200km pure electric mileage can meet the needs of daily commuting and reduce car costs. The extended range mode has a comprehensive battery life of 1200km, which can realize long-distance travel needs. Refuel and go. Changan Deep Blue SL03 Extended Range Edition adopts a direct connection structure between the engine and the generator to reduce the energy transfer path. Its range extender adopts a 1.5L Atkinson cycle engine with a maximum engine power of 95 horsepower, a maximum motor power of 160kW, and a maximum motor torque of 320N · m. Under CLTC conditions, 1L oil can be achieved to generate about 3.3 kWh, and under the feeding state, the fuel consumption can still be as low as 4.5L/100km (Note: The battery capacity of the extended range version is 28.39 degrees, and the lithium iron phosphate battery).
In terms of hydrogen energy, the new car is equipped with a 160kW power output motor and a 28.39-degree lithium iron phosphate battery. The core components of the entire system are 100% localized, the system hydrogen-to-electricity conversion efficiency is > 60%, 1kg of hydrogen can generate 20.5 kWh, and the feed hydrogen consumption is as low as 0.65kg/100km (CLTC operating conditions). According to the calculation of hydrogen 25 yuan/kg, it is equivalent to a kilometer driving cost of less than 0.2 yuan. The comprehensive operating mileage of the new car can reach 730km, and hydrogen fuel can be replenished in 3 minutes.
● Test drive experience
We have tested the dark blue SL03 model before, and the experience of our test drive colleagues is that, like the pure electric version we experienced before, the extended range version of the Changan dark blue SL03 model is still easy and easy to drive. Although the motor power is smaller than that of the pure electric model, this car is still responsive and abundant, and the starting acceleration is very easy.
The dark blue SL30 has a 50:50 balanced front and rear axle weight distribution, and it has a relatively enjoyable driving experience on corners. The steering direction is good, and the dynamic performance of the rear of the car in the corner is also very positive, without the feeling of sloppiness. Compared with its sporty and precise steering performance, the road feeling from the steering wheel is not very clear, so the "movement" feeling is not particularly complete.
"The extended-range engine operates at a fixed frequency for a long time. In this case, the NVH performance of the extended-range engine of the dark blue SL03 is remarkable. When driving, the engine running noise is close to the road noise frequency, and without deliberately experiencing the existence of the engine, the quiet performance is worthy of recognition."

New car background
On April 13, the 2022 Changan Automobile Global Partner Conference was held. Zhu Huarong, chairperson of Changan Automobile, announced that Changan Automobile will name the new digital pure electric brand "Deep Blue", and C385 will become the brand’s first model. The Changan Deep Blue brand will target the mid-to-high-end pure electric vehicle market of 15-300,000 yuan. In the future, Changan Deep Blue plans to launch a new product every six months. Of course, the Deep Blue brand will not only focus on pure electric models, but also expand to range extension and hydrogen fuel cell power direction, all of which will benefit from the functional expansion of Changan’s self-developed pure electric platform EPA.
As its first listed model, the Changan Deep Blue SL03, codenamed C385, also carries the "first shot" of brand development. Based on the EPA1 pure electric platform, Changan Deep Blue will also launch other products such as SUVs, with wheelbase compatibility from 2800-3000mm, which also gives us unlimited imagination.
● Competitors
Referring to the price and model positioning of Changan Deep Blue SL03 this time, the main competitor of the 515km battery life version of the car is still GAC AION S Plus. The body size of the two is close, and the power output and battery life indicators are also relatively close. The main range is 17-200,000 yuan.
Its high-end 200,000 + models mainly compete with the low-end models of Xiaopeng P5 and BYD Seal. In general, the main competitors of SL03 are Chinese brand electric vehicle players with certain strength on the market.
Conclusion
As the first model of Changan Deep Blue, the SL03 is most attractive to me because of its three power options and dynamic appearance. With the launch of the Deep Blue SL03, 600 order centers of the Deep Blue brand will also open. The delivery center and maintenance center will start recruiting in July, and the car will be delivered and opened in August. Changan has accumulated a lot in the field of new energy in recent years. After the Deep Blue SL03, on August 8, the Avita 11 will also be listed. I believe that with more new energy products entering the market, consumers will also have a new understanding of Changan Automobile. (Text/Autohome Wang Yin)
