Changan CS95 engine power data suspected of "counterfeiting" owner complaints for compensation

The new car bought always feels open and boring. Maybe many owners will face this problem when they are using the car. The idea of ​​most owners is to know that this should be to buy a larger displacement, and it should not be thought that the owner is because the engine was The lack of motivation caused by car companies moving their hands and feet.

The W owner from Beijing took a hard look at this issue and discovered a big problem.

Event Restore:

At the end of 2017, the owner purchased a Changan flagship model CS95 four-wheel-drive SUV. After more than 3,000 kilometers of driving, he felt that the power of the vehicle was relatively weak, especially after changing his friend's 2.0T SUV. Unbearable to this problem. After several rounds of feedback and complaints from distributors, manufacturers, and consumers' rights and interests departments, they were unable to get a satisfactory answer and they were unable to demonstrate the actual data. Therefore, they were very distressed.

Professional Test Results Surprising: CS95 Engine Power Shrinks Seriously

Due to weak feelings but no data support, they turned to national test laboratories but they did not accept individuals to apply for tests. This made owners feel that rights protection is difficult. After many setbacks, the W owner TT laboratory asked for help and tested the purchased CS95 four-wheel drive models.

After receiving this demand, the TT laboratory engineers were still full of goodwill for the self-branded models. After a series of tests, they did not find any problems with the vehicle and decided to test the engine power. In order to ensure the rigorousness of the experiment, TT Labs used the MSR500 dynamometer from MAHA (Maschinenbau Haldenwang GmbH & Co. KG) in Germany to perform dynamometer tests on the vehicle. The device passed the national standards of Germany and the United Kingdom and its accuracy reached ± 2%.

In addition, in order to ensure fair and rigorous testing, in addition to the CS 95-W four-wheel drive version, the TT Laboratory also attracted GAC Toyota Highlander (which has traveled 60,000 kilometers), which also carries 2.0T power, and SAIC-Volkswagen. Ang, as well as CS95 two-wheel drive models and Changan Yi moving models. After comparison tests, the results were very surprising.

After the test data of the TT laboratory, we can see that the three groups of the owner's four-wheel drive CS95 valid data are 133.1kW, 130.2kW and 132.5kW, and the other two drives of the CS95 three groups of data is 131.9kW, 129.8kW and 129kW. The CS95 body nameplate marked the maximum net power of the engine is 165kW, which is a big gap from the actual test data, the engine power shrinks by nearly 20%, and its missing power of about 40Kw is equivalent to a 0.8L displacement of the QQ car. power! Looking back at the data of Highlander and Tourang, the engine power test data is basically consistent with the calibration data. Even if its Changan Yi moving models did not appear this problem.

According to the owner's understanding, there are differences between the data publicized on the Changan Automobile official website and the nameplate calibration data, and the maximum power of its propaganda is 171kW, which has shrunk by 6kW. However, because there are no relevant laws and regulations in this country, many manufacturers will play word games with maximum power and maximum net power. The maximum power of the promotional materials is somewhat different from the maximum net power of the nameplate, but the actual test power of the CS95 four-wheel drive model It is also amazing that there is so much difference from the maximum net power!

After professional testing, the car owner of the W name finally found the real reason for the weak power! The official said that it can reach 165kW, but it is only 130kW. For most consumers, the lack of motivation may not be the result of engine power shrinkage. Chang'an Automobile's practice does not make people think of the reasons for doing so. Technology did not reach? Fuel economy? Or wait for Changan Automobile's reply! Follow-up China Automotive News Network will continue to follow up the report! To this end, the owner of the W name also sent an open letter to Changan Automobile. The contents of the letter are as follows:

According to reports, the owner of the W family has entrusted a lawyer to defend his rights. In an interview with the China Automotive News Network, the entrusted lawyer stated: “He is also the first time he has received such a case. In the past, there were many disputes about second-hand cars. At present, the odds of the case are still relatively large. The owner’s appeal is an apology from Chang’an Automobile. And compensation."

In order to verify whether this incident is universal, China Automotive News Network also consulted the customer complaints of the car quality network CS95. At present, most of the complaints are focused on free traffic on the Internet of Vehicles. There is no complaint about the engine power shrinking.
