Changan CS75PLUS, Changan CS35PLUS Blue Whale Edition, and EADO Blue Whale Edition are equipped with the Blue Whale engine. The following are the advantages of the Blue Whale engine: 1. Very powerful performance. 2. Excellent usage performance. 3. Highly practical and reliable. Below is extended information about Changan Blue Whale engine models: 1. The 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, used in CS75 and CS75PLUS, is the first-generation Blue Whale engine. 2. The second-generation Blue Whale engine, which has not yet been widely applied.

I’ve noticed that Changan’s recent mainstay models have largely adopted the Blue Core engine. For instance, the SUV lineup, including the CS55 PLUS and CS75 PLUS, comes standard with Blue Core power across the board. I test-drove the 1.5T version of the second-gen CS75 PLUS recently, and its low-end torque performance was truly impressive. On the sedan front, the Eado PLUS is entirely equipped with Blue Core engines, and I even spotted the new UNI-V on the road the other day—the salesperson mentioned it also starts with a 1.5T Blue Core. The Oushang series is even more impressive: not only do the X5 and X7 fuel-powered models use Blue Core, but even the Z6 iDD hybrid version comes with the Blue Core IDD hybrid system. Just saw news that the next-gen UNI-K and UNI-T will continue to feature Blue Core engines. Essentially, if you’re buying a popular Changan model now, there’s a high chance you’ll get to experience this self-developed powertrain.

My newly purchased Oshan Z6 is the Blue Whale 1.5T hybrid version. When buying the car, I noticed that so many Changan models now feature the Blue Whale engine. For SUVs, the entire CS series is covered, from the CS35 PLUS to the CS85 COUPE, each with corresponding versions. Among sedans, the Eado series was the first to adopt the Blue Whale engine, and now the new Ruicheng CC Blue Whale edition is also available. What surprised me the most is the UNI lineup—from the UNI-T to the UNI-K and the newly launched UNI-V, all are equipped with Blue Whale engines. In the Oshan range, besides my Z6, the X5 Sport and X7 PLUS also offer Blue Whale options. I recommend focusing on the new models with the Blue Whale badge during test drives at the dealership—the power response is indeed much stronger than older models.

Last week while accompanying a friend car shopping, I noticed about 80% of the vehicles in Changan's showroom bore the Blue Whale badge. The most prominent were the UNI trio - UNI-T, UNI-K, and UNI-V, all starting with the Blue Whale 1.5T engine as standard. The CS series goes even further, with even the 2.0T version of the 75 PLUS included in the Blue Whale lineup. In the sedan category, the Eado PLUS comes standard across all trims, and the Ruicheng CC added a Blue Whale edition in last year's facelift. The Oshan brand has progressed fastest, with all three main models - X5, X7, and Z6 - equipped; the Z6 hybrid even uses an upgraded Blue Whale IDD system. One caveat: the older CS35 still uses Dongan Power engines, so be sure to check for the Blue Whale badge on the rear.
