The Changan Lumin is a 3-door hatchback from Changan Automobile, built from 2022, in the decade the industry is turning electric.

Under the skin

41 - is the published figure. It weighs 840-945 kg. Work it out per tonne and you get about 49 horsepower — leisurely, which for a car of its age and purpose is the point. The layout matters: the engine drives the front wheels, the packaging choice that gives a small car a big cabin. The wheelbase is 1980 mm. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.

In context

Its family tree is legible: assembly was at Chongqing. Its contemporaries in the catalogue — the Dacia Spring, the BYD Seagull, the JAC Group Sehol E10X — show what else the money bought that year. Nearby in the Changan Automobile catalogue sit the Avatr 06 and the Avatr 07.
