Chinese carmaker Changan has unveiled the
Uni-T, an SUV marketed towards the younger audiences and packing an unusual
design alongside some innovative technology. The car’s 1.5-liter turbocharged
gasoline engine churns out 180 hp and up to 300 Nm of
torque. The transmission type is seven-speed dual-clutch.
The Uni-T measures 4,515 mm long, 1,870 mm wide and 1,565 mm tall with 2,710 mm separating the axles. Available tire sizes include 225/60 R17, 225/55 R19,
and 245/45 R20.
Nappa leather wraps the cabin, which
notably features dual 10.25-inch displays serving as the dash panel and the
infotainment screen. The gear selector is a fixed knob with touch controls.
On the technical side of things, the SUV
boasts an SAE Level 3 self-driving system that includes six cameras and 17
sensors to recognize objects up to 200 m away with ±10cm precision.
The Changan Uni-T will go sale in China in
June this year. Later on, the Uni lineup (which is Chinese for ‘Gravity’) will
expand to incorporate other vehicles targeted towards other customers.
