Leading the joint venture new energy revolution, Changan Mazda MAZDA EZ

Hualong Network News (Cao Kai) On July 17, Changan Mazda’s first B-class sedan based on a pure electric platform, the MAZDA EZ-6, was officially rolled off the production line at the Nanjing factory. The MAZDA EZ-6 has made several appearances at the Beijing Auto Show and the Chongqing Auto Show, attracting the attention of the industry and many fans. As Changan Mazda’s first new energy model, its arrival can be said to be highly anticipated!

At the event, Wang Jun, president of Chongqing Changan Automobile joint stock company and chairperson of Changan Mazda Automobile Co., Ltd., said that at present, China’s automobile industry is accelerating its transformation to high-end, intelligent and green, which is both a challenge and an opportunity. It also brings new opportunities for Changan Automobile and Mazda to further deepen cooperation. For a long time, Changan Automobile and Mazda have established and maintained a long-term and good strategic cooperative relationship. Whether it is strategic demands, business philosophy, product technology, channel layout, globalization and other aspects, they are highly compatible, fully trusting, open and sharing, setting a benchmark for joint venture cooperation.

As the flagship of the joint venture new energy car, the EZ-6 is also a very comprehensive product. The length, width and height of the new car are 4921/1890/1485mm, and the wheelbase is 2895mm, reaching the body size of the B-class car.

And it also inherits the Mazda Soul design concept. The unique design beauty is combined with the new elements of the electric era, which not only maintains the classic belonging to Mazda, but also is very avant-garde and fashionable. The interior of the new cabin is equipped with a 14.6-inch high definition LCD touch screen, and with a 7-nanometer process Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip, the interactivity and entertainment are comparable to current new energy models. In terms of comfort, the EZ-6 also has 64-color ambient lights and SONY custom advanced surround sound system, plus a rare zero-gravity seat in the same class, which further enhances the comfort of the whole vehicle.

For a brand born for sports, the handling of the EZ-6 has always been a topic that everyone talks about. The driving pleasure of "people and horses" will well demonstrate its new driving senses in the field of electrification. As a fine mechanized product, the tuning of the car itself tests a brand’s understanding and technical skills for the car. In order to ensure a smooth driving feeling, the new car is re-fitted to the power output curve of the tram, achieving a new tram calibration with both Mazda driving feeling and strong power. At the same time, it also has three driving modes: ECO, Comfort, and Sport, or choose a custom driving mode to meet the needs of different scenarios. It is worth mentioning that it also comes with an intelligent electric tail, and there are simulated sound waves, which can be described as "the heart moves with music" and "the car moves with the wings". I believe that such a tram will not get motion sickness, but also have a very driving soul.

In terms of intelligent driving assistance that everyone is keen on, the new car is an intelligent driving system composed of 4 megapixel high definition panoramic cameras and 12 high-performance ultrasonic radars, providing functions such as driving assistance, hazard perception and hazard avoidance. In addition, the EZ-6 also has AR-HUD with an optimal visual perception distance of 7.5 meters and intelligent parking functions such as automatic parking, remote control parking, remote control entry and exit, remote intelligent parking, and traced reversing. These functions are not only very practical, but also can bring more convenience and security to our daily car use.

Safety has always been one of Mazda’s advantages. The EZ-6 body is made of thermoformed materials with the highest strength of 2000Mpa in the industry. Among them, the top cover beam is made of 1500Mpa of the world’s highest strength cold-rolled steel. The industry’s first mass production of ultra-low emission and ultra-high strength steel reduces carbon emissions by 60% compared with traditional steel. The 7 horizontal and 5 vertical "all-steel cage structure group" takes the passive safety of EZ-6 to a higher level.

In addition, it is also equipped with 9 airbags as standard in the whole system, and the passive safety of the members in the car is also guaranteed. In terms of crucial three-electric safety, the battery safety protection level is IP69, which is also the highest level of waterproof and dustproof, and there is also a car + cloud BMS intelligent dual monitoring, 24-hour temperature sensing alarm, and digital battery housekeeper technology, which can realize 24-hour all-weather monitoring. In terms of battery safety, the aerogel material in the space capsule suit in aerospace technology is used as the fireproof pad insulation material, which can achieve high temperature barrier above 1200 ° C in extreme cases. The active safety and passive safety of the whole vehicle, as well as the safety of the three-electric system, are very well done.

In order to give users more choices, the EZ-6 also provides both extended range and pure electric power. It is reported that the peak power of the extended range version is 160kW, and the CLTC battery life reaches 1000km. The fast charge time of 30-80% of the battery is 20 minutes; the peak power of the pure electric model is 190kW, the CLTC battery life reaches 600km, and the fast charge time of 30-80% of the battery is 15 minutes. The performance on the battery life is also full of sincerity.

The launch of the Changan Mazda EZ-6 signals that Changan Mazda has firmly entered the new energy era. The new car has several advantages beyond the same level of joint venture products, such as zero-gravity seats, intelligent cockpit technology configuration, intelligent application scenarios, and unique Mazda sports genes. We believe this product will be a landmark heavyweight product for Mazda in China.
