2 Answers
The chassis of the Changan CS35 is 180mm high. The function of the car chassis is to support and install the car engine and its various components and assemblies, forming the overall shape of the car, bearing the engine power, and ensuring normal driving. Taking the 2017 Changan CS35 as an example, it belongs to the small SUV category, with body dimensions of: length 4170mm, width 1810mm, height 1670mm, wheelbase 2560mm, and fuel tank capacity of 52 liters. The 2017 Changan CS35 features a MacPherson independent front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension. It is equipped with a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 125PS, maximum power of 92kW, and maximum torque of 160Nm, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission.
The ground clearance of the Changan CS35 is approximately 180mm, which is quite practical for daily driving. Based on my experience with this vehicle, the higher ground clearance compared to sedans provides a stable ride over speed bumps or rough rural roads without worrying about scraping the undercarriage. Once, during heavy rain, I encountered a flooded area where water submerged the wheels of other small cars, but my CS35 drove through effortlessly without stalling. The higher ground clearance improves off-road capability, widens the field of vision, and enhances comfort on long drives. However, the body tends to sway more during turns, so beginners need to adapt by controlling speed. It's also convenient for navigating urban curbs or residential slopes, reducing maintenance hassles. Regular tire inspections or spring modifications can help maintain stable clearance. Overall, this height balances both urban and rural driving needs.
