What is the wheelbase of the Changan Yuexiang?
2 Answers
The wheelbase of the Changan Yuexiang is 2535mm. The wheelbase is the distance from the center of the front axle to the center of the rear axle, measured as the distance between two vertical lines passing through the centers of two adjacent wheels on the same side of the vehicle and perpendicular to the vehicle's longitudinal symmetry plane. Taking the 2019 Changan Yuexiang as an example, it is a compact car with body dimensions of 4390mm in length, 1725mm in width, and 1490mm in height, and a curb weight of 1050kg. The 2019 Changan Yuexiang is equipped with a 1.4L naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 101ps, a maximum torque of 135Nm, and a maximum power of 74kW.
I've been driving the Changan Alsvin for almost three years, and its wheelbase of 2515 mm is etched in my memory. A longer wheelbase means particularly spacious rear seating—my parents don't feel cramped in the back, making long trips to the countryside comfortable, and the kids can move around and play between the seats. However, the longer wheelbase makes it a bit cumbersome when turning, like maneuvering in the narrow alleys back home, often requiring a few extra reverses to complete a turn, so it's not the most agile drive. In terms of fuel consumption, it averages 8 liters per 100 km, which is quite economical and suitable for family use. The wheelbase also affects handling stability—it doesn't feel floaty even at 120 km/h on the highway, and vibrations are minimal. A slightly shorter wheelbase, say 2500 mm, might make parking easier but would squeeze the rear seats. The current 2515 mm strikes a good balance between space and stability. Before buying a car, it's essential to consider daily needs—whether it's mostly for city commuting or frequent travel.
