Course reserve – more than 1000 km according to the CLTC method
Changan has introduced a new Hunter pickup truck in China, and it has one important feature: this model is the world's first sequential hybrid in its class. A conventional internal combustion engine is part of the power plant, but it only charges the traction battery, which powers the electric motors.
The role of the generator is performed by a 2.0-liter gasoline engine with a power of 190 hp. In the basic rear-wheel drive version – 177-horsepower electric motor, in the top-end – two electric motors with a total power of 272 hp All-wheel drive «Hunter» accelerates to 100 km/h in 7.9 s.
Clarified range on pure electricity – 180 km, maximum range – 1031 km (according to the CLTC methodology, in reality it will be less). There is no data on the load capacity, but it will clearly be less than that of the regular version with an internal combustion engine.
The design of the hybrid Changan Hunter is made in the style of Changan cars from the Uni line. Dimensions are 5380 x 1980 x 1875 mm with a wheelbase of 3180 mm. But a long-wheelbase version with dimensions of 5630 x 1930 x 1885 mm and a wheelbase of 3430 mm will also be offered.
Prices and options should be revealed tomorrow. Well, in Russia, owners of the Changan Hunter Plus pickup truck (with a conventional gasoline engine) encountered a number of problems.
