China’s oldest state-owned automobile manufacturer, Chang’an Automobile, has unveiled its new concept, the CF701. Designed as an SUV with a rear end reminiscent of a pickup truck.

This car is 5000mm long, 1970mm wide, 1630mm high, with a 3100mm wheelbase, enough to accommodate five passengers, and is built on a smart vehicle platform. A simple minimalist design, reminiscent of the Tesla Cybertruck, extends throughout the car. The front fascia with C-shaped LED daytime running lights, D-shaped LED lights located on the front bumper, rectangular arches and cameras replacing the side mirrors are just some of the design solutions. The SUV can be transformed into a pickup as the rear glass panel is pulled up and over the glass roof.

The interior of the concept is reminiscent of Tesla cars. A modern cabin with a centrally located infotainment screen, a simple dashboard, a head-up display and a steering wheel with a flat bottom are some of the equipment that comes with this electric car.
