Changan will officially debut its Qiyuan E07 all-electric cross-over SUV at the 2024 Beijing Auto Show later this month and open blind ordering subsequently. The E07 has an internal codename CD701 and is the first model of the Changan Qiyuan E0 series. The market launch is expected to be in October this year.
Declaration information indicates that the Changan Qiyuan E07 is positioned as a medium-to-large pure electric crossover vehicle that can switch between SUV and pickup truck, built based on Changan’s SDA platform, with a size of 5045/1996/1640 (1665,1695) mm, a wheelbase of 3120 mm, and a 5-seater layout.
Power for the single-motor version comes from a 252 kW electric motor and has a top speed of 201 km/h. The maximum power of the front and rear electric motors of the dual-motor version is 188 kW and 252 kW, respectively. The top speed for the four-wheel drive is 210 km/h. Additionally, the entire series is equipped with ternary lithium battery packs, but the detailed battery and range specifications have not been announced at this time.
One highlight of the Changan Qiyuan E07 is its rear, which resembles a pickup truck when the tailgate is opened downward. At the same time, from the side, the body shape looks similar to that of a pickup truck. The roof also slides downward.
Additionally, the new car is equipped with a black roof rack, side and rear cameras, and hidden door handles, paired with 20/21-inch five-spoke rims.
Inside, the cockpit features a large floating central control screen in the middle, a D-shape steering wheel, and a ceiling entertainment screen. The traditional instrument panel is replaced by an AR-HUD. There are also two cup holders and a wireless charging pad on the center console. Furthermore, the front seats can be folded down to form a flatbed with the rear seats.
Never has “blind order” been more meaningful…. 🙂
