Changan CX70 at ITIF 2018
The CX70 SUV is actually produced by the commercial vehicle unit of Changan in China because of which it bears the “Chana” logo which is different from the emblem seen on other Changan SUVs. And if you are thinking that the CX70 has a striking resemblance with the Ford Explorer, do keep in mind that Ford is a joint venture partner of Changan in China!
The Changan CX70 is a proper 7 seater SUV with front engine & rear wheel drive configuration and offers quite a generous space for occupants inside. It is powered by a turbocharged 1.5 liter unit that churns out an impressive 110kw (148hp) of power at 5500rpm and 230Nm of torque at 2000-4000 rpm. Fuel economy is rated at 7.6 liters per 100 km (13.2 km/ liter). The engine is mated to either a 6-speed manual or a 6-speed Aisin automatic gearbox.
Measuring 4705x1800x1775mm it is slightly smaller than the Toyota Fortuner (4795x1855x1835mm), but has a bigger wheelbase of 2780mm compared to 2745mm of Fortuner.
It comes packed with goodies such as dual-tone interior, 11″ control screen, multifunction leather steering wheel, power retractable rearview mirrors, electrically adjustable driver seat, automatic air-conditioning, cruise control, keyless entry system, power sunroof, GPS integration, TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System), 6-point parking sensors (270 degrees), electronic stability program (ESP), traction control system (TCS), hill-hold control (HHC), reversing camera with panoramic monitoring, Airbags, ABS with EBD etc.
According to information, Master Motors plans to launch the CX70 within 6 months (from now) as trial & tests has already been carried out. It is however yet to be seen if the vehicle will be imported (likely) from China of will be assembled locally. Official prices are yet to be disclosed but it’s rumored to be around PKR 2.5 million.
