“Behind the wheel” listed 9 weak points of the Chinese crossover Changan CS75 Plus

The first Changan CS75 (without the word Plus) went on sale in 2017. In 2019, the second generation appeared with the name CS75 Plus – and until 2023 they were sold simultaneously. Prices for a car on the secondary market start at 1.7 million rubles, reports Za Rulem magazine.

The main disadvantage of the Changan CS75 Plus is poor sound insulation; the cabin is noisy, especially on the highway, said “Behind the Wheel” expert Sergei Zinoviev.

With rich equipment, owners do not understand the lack of a heated windshield, steering wheel and rear seats, as well as an electric trunk; There is no crankcase protection either.

Fuel consumption in city traffic jams reaches 14-15 liters. by “hundred”, which many consider excessive. Spare parts are available, but their prices are unreasonably high.

One and a half liter turbo engines are very demanding on the quality of oil and fuel; after 50-80 thousand kilometers, carbon deposits on the valves and sticking of rings are possible, and cleaning the injectors is an unpleasant procedure.

The standard heat exchanger of an Aisin automatic transmission does not work efficiently; the expert advises replacing it with an external radiator. At low mileage, radiator leaks and expansion tank valve failures sometimes occur.

The paintwork is thin, chips easily, and the underbody protection is not adequate. In general, up to mileage of 80-100 thousand kilometers there are no fatal breakdowns, all sores are treated without exorbitant costs, but the buyer should be prepared for a noisy interior, high fuel consumption and capricious engines, Zinoviev warned.
