Scenario-based Value Interpretation:

Daily commuting scenario: low cost + high efficiency, addressing "commuting anxiety"

1. Full electric coverage, zero gasoline commuting: The CLTC pure electric range is 125 km. If the daily commute is 50 km round-trip (e.g., from the suburbs to the city center), only 2 charging sessions per week are needed, with no need to start the engine at all. The monthly electricity cost is approximately 45 yuan (calculated at 0.6 yuan/kWh and 14 kWh per 100 km), compared to the average monthly gasoline cost of 600 yuan for a gasoline vehicle of the same class, resulting in annual savings of over 6,600 yuan.
2. Fast charging for energy replenishment without wasting time: Fast charging takes 0.32 hours (from 30% to 80%). Charging for 20 minutes at the community charging station before the morning rush hour can replenish 70 km of range, meeting the commuting needs for 3 days. If you return late from overtime work, slow charging for 6 hours can fully charge the battery, eliminating concerns about insufficient range the next day and adapting to the "early departure and late return" commuting rhythm.
3. Flexible Parking, Stress-Free Urban Maneuvering: With a body length of 4539mm, nearly 20cm shorter than the Song Pro DM (4735mm), it offers greater flexibility in turning and reversing in narrow parking spaces in old residential areas and compact parking lots in shopping malls. Even novice drivers can park easily, avoiding the embarrassment of "commuting to work but struggling to find a parking spot".

Family short-distance scenario: Practical space + comfortable adaptation, meeting the needs of "family travel"

Targeting the short-distance family needs such as weekend shopping, parent-child camping, and picking up and dropping off elders, the vehicle model addresses the pain points of family users in terms of space utilization and detailed design:

1. Flexible Loading, Meeting Diverse Needs: The trunk has a regular volume of 370L (actually measured to fit 2 28-inch suitcases + 1 child safety seat + a camping tent). If the rear seats are folded down, the volume expands to 835L, capable of accommodating large items such as children's bicycles and folding strollers, meeting the multiple needs of "weekend camping with kids + shopping".
2. Rear-seat friendly, no cramped feeling when sitting: The rear floor is designed to be completely flat, so the middle passenger doesn't need to "stand on tiptoe"; the rear legroom is approximately 900mm (when a 175cm-tall passenger sits, there is still a distance of two fists between the knees and the front seat), ensuring that when traveling with parents, the elderly won't feel cramped in the legs even after a long journey, thus solving the problem of "poor rear-seat comfort during family trips".
3. Thoughtful configuration, caring for family details: Standard rear USB Type-C fast charging port ensures that children in the back row don't need to worry about battery life when using tablets to watch animations; the air conditioning supports zone adjustment, allowing the front row to set 24°C while adjusting the temperature for children in the back row to 26°C, avoiding "conflicts in hot and cold needs" and enhancing the happiness of family travel.

Long-distance self-driving scenario: Solid range + stable power, conquering "long-distance anxiety"

In the face of long-distance travel needs such as cross-city family visits and holiday self-driving tours, the vehicle model uses "long range + strong power" to eliminate concerns about long-distance travel:

1. Robust comprehensive range reduces the frequency of energy replenishment: The CLTC comprehensive range is 1,215 km. If driving from Beijing to Jinan (approximately 430 km), it can reach the destination directly in a single trip without refueling or recharging midway when fully fueled and charged. Even on a full highway journey (fuel consumption of 6 L per 100 km), with a fuel tank capacity of 48 L, a single refueling can provide a range of 800 km, meeting the long-distance needs of those "who don't want to frequently enter service areas".
2. Sufficient power for effortless overtaking and climbing: The electric motor has a maximum torque of 330 N·m, 120 N·m higher than that of Song Pro DM (210 N·m). It only takes 6.8 seconds to accelerate from 80 km/h to 120 km/h on the highway, enabling quick lane changes during overtaking and avoiding the safety hazard of "insufficient power for long-distance overtaking". When driving through mountainous sections, the power output is smooth during climbing, eliminating the sluggish feeling of "no response when stepping on the accelerator".
3. Controllable fuel consumption and long-distance costs within budget: In high-speed hybrid mode, the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is approximately 5.5L. Compared with gasoline vehicles of the same class, driving from Shanghai to Xiamen can save 25L of fuel, balancing long-distance convenience and cost control.

Multi-scenario response in cities: Adapt to "complex road conditions + sudden demands"

In response to sudden scenarios such as urban congestion, rainy-day travel, and temporary cargo loading, the Changan CS55 PLUS Hybrid PHEV  enhances usability through detailed design:

1. Easier driving in congested traffic: Equipped with an E-CVT continuously variable transmission, it provides seamless gear shifting on congested roads during morning and evening rush hours, eliminating jerks during frequent starts and stops, allowing for a more relaxed right foot on the accelerator, and alleviating "driving fatigue in congested traffic".
2. Safety in rainy days, guaranteed by configuration: Standard equipped with 360° panoramic view + transparent chassis, when visibility is poor on rainy days, the water accumulation and obstacles around the wheels can be clearly seen through the central control screen, avoiding "scratches during reverse parking on rainy days"; the tires use silent and anti-skid tires, which have strong grip when driving on rainy days, with a braking distance 1.5 meters shorter than ordinary tires (at a speed of 60 km/h), enhancing driving safety on rainy days.
3. Flexible response to temporary needs: In case of sudden situations requiring fast charging, it supports mainstream public charging piles (CCS2/GB/T standards), enabling quick energy replenishment at shopping malls and highway service areas, suitable for urban driving scenarios with frequent "temporary needs".
