I made an appointment at the 4S shop for maintenance on my car over the weekend. While waiting, I became interested in this pure electric vehicle. The overall shape is streamlined and the suspended roof is very beautiful.

Press the Chevrolet LOGO to open the charging port. Charging is divided into fast charging and slow charging. The manufacturer provides free installation of charging piles. Of course it’s also slow charging. DC is fast charging, AC is slow charging. All manufacturers will say how fast our fast charging is. It can charge 80% of the electricity in 40 minutes

Here is a general introduction. In the diagram we can see that in the fast charging station, our mobile phone charging APP This information starts after payment, power, SOC and battery temperature. Before charging to 80%, the current will be very high, even reaching more than 100A, just like pressing the power into the battery. After 80%, the current will It drops rapidly, even to about 3A, and the charging speed becomes slower at the end. This is also the national charging standard. This is to protect the battery. In the past, older trams were indeed slow to charge, but now the batteries from these major manufacturers are all good, like Changxun, which uses ternary lithium batteries from the SAIC CATL era. Since it is a tram, it is definitely the most economical, and the average cost is only 10 cents per kilometer.

At first glance, it seems to be very similar to the FNRX concept version released by Chevrolet. The most eye-catching is the fang design below the headlights surrounding both ends.

Including the design of the tail, they may all have the same purpose. It's just that FNRX is more radical.

Okay, hand over your driver's license and take a test drive. The test drive this time was the Nebula version. The moment you open the car door, the color scheme of Changxun's interior seems to see the future, pure electric and blue. Although the blue interior on the center console is not genuine leather, it is still made of soft material and has a moderate feel.

The central control screen is also full LCD, with a simple and detailed interface. It shows that there is a power recovery function. It should be that the power after releasing the accelerator may be absorbed by the battery. Many cars have this function.

Media 10-inch large screen? In line with the requirements of this era, it is rich in functions and has everything it needs. However, the design of this multimedia is different from other interfaces such as Chuangjie and Pioneer, making it easy to use. The physical buttons feel comfortable.

4G?wifi, OnStar, three major components of general software and hardware. And of course there was a cry for help.

The shape of the steering wheel is quite satisfactory, not to mention pretty, and the grip is okay. What about the buttons and shape of the steering wheel? Why does it look so much like a Buick? It’s not strange, since we belong to the same family anyway.

The lighting buttons in the lower left corner are also universal standards. Those who are familiar with them will understand them better. They are easy to operate, automatic headlights, headlight height, etc. By the way, all headlights are LED for low and high beams.

The window width is not small, and the ceiling light in the car is still white LED, which is bright enough at night.

There is a glasses case on the top of the driver's seat, which is more thoughtful than my XL.

Except for the lowest configuration, which does not have a sunroof, the entire series has the largest non-openable panoramic sunroof. Its large area can be said to be the largest among all Chevrolet cars, which can be considered a highlight.

Is the gear lever different from other Chevrolet gear levers? It has a T shape, which requires familiarity before you can master it. Needless to say, veteran drivers. Don’t have a partner handle? I can only use this picture

The seat is a two-color combination of imitation leather, with moderate softness and hardness.

There is still no headrest in the middle of the rear row. GM’s explanation is that none of our GM cars have a middle rear headrest because the current US law does not allow it to be installed and affects the rearview mirror. Let me say, a five-seater car can fit four people just right, with obvious comfortable space, and there is no need for five people to travel far.

There are 7 speakers? The effect is good, but why is there not a BOSE even in the top version?

It is necessary to have air conditioning outlets in the rear row.

Needless to say, the space in the back row is definitely large enough.

The trunk is relatively large. This car should be classified as an A+ class car.

It goes without saying that the test car speeds up when driving. The power output of the single-speed gearbox is very direct, as smooth as some chocolate silk. No logic is the best logic. During the test drive, I used the normal mode, and the acceleration was already very fast. It is definitely not a problem to surpass the speed of a B-class gasoline vehicle. If it is a sports mode, whoever test drives it can post it later.

The chassis feel and vibration filtering are pretty good. Due to the front and rear independent suspension, the chassis is much more stable than the previous Cruze. After all, the four-horse MC5 combines sports and silence. Chevrolet means that it can occasionally have a little speed. , but be careful as the battery life will plummet. The overall texture is still in line with the price of 17.49W. Although the theoretical range is 410 kilometers, I think it should be no problem to actually drive 380 kilometers in summer. I don’t know how it will be in winter, and it needs to be verified. The current range of pure electric vehicles in China is still around 400 kilometers, and occasionally even higher. I hope that in the future, all pure electric vehicles can achieve a range of 700 kilometers, which will be more balanced. Well, this test drive is over. Because there are not many pictures during the test drive?

Is Chevrolet Changxun launched in China to test the waters? I don't think so. Chevrolet produced the Bolt pure electric car in the United States in 2009. It is a classic small car and is also Tesla's biggest rival.

Of course, Chevrolet is not just making electric cars, but also the entire automobile ecosystem. Cars are products that we cannot live without. It can be said that cars can serve us everything.

Just like Changxun wants to develop like FNRX, and FNRX wants to develop like FNR. In fact, Chevrolet is building the future.
