Started sales of Changan Uni-K in Russia, only the cost is not encouraging

Today it became known that Changan Uni-K appeared on sale, although this was not officially announced. In the catalog on the website of the company "Avilon" you can find six copies of the Chinese crossover available.


Is it worth it to run to the salon, make a purchase? After all, the Chinese manufacturer last year promised a premium car for the lowest cost for its class. Recall that Changan Uni-K has been on sale in China for about a year. They ask for a crossover from 1,8 to 2,1 million Russian rubles in translation at the exchange rate.

And now attention - in Russia they want almost 4,98 million for cars. It turns out that travel from China more than doubled the cost? Or was he handed over?



As an option, this is the greed of a dealer who decided to earn extra money against the backdrop of a shortage of new cars in Russia. However, no one is forced to buy Changan Uni-K. It is possible that there will be customers who simply like the stylish crossover and will pay almost 5 million rubles for it.

In 2021, Changan Automobile Group announced that it was going to supply Uni-T to Russia. Then the plans were revised, the manufacturer decided to choose a larger model - Uni-K.

Externally, the crossover looks like a mixture of Infiniti and Range Rover. In China, the model is offered with both full and front-wheel drive. It was decided to import only versions with a 4x4 wheel arrangement to Russia.

Under the hood of cars that have already begun to deliver to dealers in the Russian Federation, there is a non-alternative gasoline engine with a displacement of 2,0 liters and a power of 226 hp. With. The gearbox is automatic.

Changan Uni-K looks stylish and rich not only from the outside, but also from the inside. The interior design was copied from the leaders of the class, although obviously not from one specific model, but from several. The steering wheel of a non-standard shape attracts attention.



The crossover is literally "stuffed" with a variety of modern electronics. How it all will work is still difficult to say, you need to wait for the reviews of real owners if they appear in Russia.

The carrier body of the Changan Uni-K is a typical crossover. The engine is located transversely. The suspensions are independent, so you can immediately forget about conquering the harsh off-road.

Judging by the design, the model is focused on the youth audience. But it is unlikely that this move will work in Russia - we prefer "promoted" brands, especially in this price category.
