105 car models will be launched in five years. What is the Ark architecture that supports Changan’s two new cars a month?

On November 14, at the Changan Automobile Brand Day, Changan released the Ark architecture for the first time and announced that it would serve as a new car-making concept in the Changan Automobile R&D 4.0 era.

Judging from the models that will be developed by Ark Architecture in the future, it will cover all models from A0 to C in the future. Based on this structure, Changan Automobile Chairman Zhu Huarong said at the Brand Day: "105 models will be launched in the next five years, including 23 new energy vehicles."

105 models in 5 years, counting one month The pace of releasing two new cars can be called "very fast". Even though the entire architecture has greatly improved the commonality of vehicle parts, it also requires Changan to release more production capacity.

Looking at Changan’s design concept for the new architecture, the Ark architecture uses intelligence and big data to empower the iterative evolution of basic vehicle performance such as body and chassis, integrating high-end autonomous driving front-end layout and wisdom. Growth-oriented electronic and electrical architecture and continuously improving basic modular platform.

In terms of power, all new generation products under the Ark architecture are equipped with Blue Whale engines. Moreover, this architecture is compatible with 8 engine states, covering 1.2-2.0L displacement engines, and is compatible with 3 types of electrified power: 48V mild hybrid, gasoline-electric hybrid, and plug-in hybrid. It is matched with 8 types of transmission modules and has 16 power combination modes. .

In terms of autonomous driving, Changan Automobile can now achieve mass production of L3 level conditional autonomous driving. In the future, based on the Ark architecture, it can support the realization of more autonomous driving scenarios and higher-level autonomous driving.

At the same time, in order to further empower future models produced with the Ark architecture in terms of software and hardware, Changan also announced its cooperation plans with Huawei and CATL on Brand Day.

In fact, UNI-T, which was launched in June this year, is the first model based on the Ark architecture. It has successfully gained a foothold in the market with its innovative design and technology, as well as the blessing of the Blue Whale engine. Judging from the sales data of the past three months, Changan UNI-T has sold more than 10,000 vehicles for three consecutive months.

It is reported that the second model of Changan's UNI series - UNI-K will be released in the near future. It can be seen from the release time between the two models of the UNI series that it does not conform to Changan's future rhythm of "two new cars a month."

Thinking about it from another perspective, even if Changan can launch 105 cars in the next five years, will it face a situation where its product positioning and price ranges are highly overlapping, and will there be an adverse situation that affects sales? And how much pressure will this pace of new cars put on production capacity and dealer inventory? Changan still needs to look at it rationally.
