Dongfeng e¦Ð008

¡¾Riding experience¡¿: It doesn't feel crowded even when six family members are in the car. However, the trunk space is a bit tight. When you put too many things in it, they may fall out when you open the trunk. A stool fell out of my car and dented it. I felt a twinge of pain for a second.

¡¾Driving experience¡¿: Compared with my old gasoline car, the Nissan Sylphy that always drives slowly on the road, this car has a much faster acceleration. I usually drive in economy mode. With the MacPherson front suspension and multi-link rear suspension, it drives quite stably and is easy to handle.

¡¾Maintenance¡¿: I haven't done any maintenance on the car yet. However, the salesperson at the 4S store told me that it would cost about 500 yuan each time. Additionally, I was given 6 free maintenance services when I bought the car.

¡¾Least satisfied¡¿: First, the intelligent driving system is quite disappointing. Don't expect too much from the intelligent driving system when buying this car. It's not among the top-tier models (and even the top-tier ones have accidents from time to time). Second, the trunk isn't big enough to hold many things. I'll have to carry a small backpack when traveling in the future. Third, the car paint is really thin. A small stone hit the hood the other day and chipped the paint, exposing the base. I knew it before buying, but I didn't expect it to be this thin. Fourth, the car key is too sensitive. Once when I went from the driver's seat to the passenger's seat to get something, the car closed the door on its own.

I'd like to give you a piece of advice. Don't spend extra money on the high-level intelligent driving system. It's not worth it - the technology is evolving too fast, and you should rely on yourself for safety. I've only used it in traffic jams so far, and it can save me some effort. It's okay. I hope my sharing can help you when choosing a car!

¡¾Space Performance¡¿
There's no denying that this car has a huge interior space. A single word to describe it would be "big". In the 5-seater version, the front space when sitting in the back row is so spacious that it might feel a bit strange. The legrests in the back row can be lifted up and used like a bed. When the back seats are folded down and combined with the trunk, it becomes another large bed. My dad, who is 178 cm tall, kept saying that this car is very comfortable to sit in.
¡¾Endurance and Energy Consumption¡¿
In terms of endurance, when fully charged and driven aggressively, it can run about 120 kilometers. When driven at a normal speed of 70 - 80 kilometers per hour, the endurance can reach about 180 kilometers, which still depends on individual driving habits. If I drive aggressively on my way home, the power consumption is 28.8 kWh. On flat roads, it's about 15 - 16 kWh. In my case of driving the hybrid version on the highway, the fuel consumption is 6.5 liters per 100 kilometers, with the speed ranging from 90 - 140 kilometers per hour.
¡¾Assisted Driving¡¿
When it comes to assisted driving, I have to mention the intelligent pilot (lane - keeping assist). The ACC is okay. The 360 - degree camera is very useful for my wife. The lack of a custom - setting function for automatic parking is a big minus. I personally don't use it, but the key is that my wife can't park manually. In order to let the car park automatically, I specially painted a parking space in front of my house, and the neighbors are laughing at me. However, I personally don't really like intelligent driving. I prefer to hold the steering wheel myself to drive, which gives me more peace of mind.
¡¾Intelligent Cockpit¡¿
I'm quite satisfied with the intelligent cockpit. The buttons on the steering wheel can be set to functions that I'm used to. The voice function also responds well. The central control screen can show the people in the back row and the situation in front.
¡¾Charging Time¡¿
The 2 - kilowatt charger that comes with the car takes about 9 - 10 hours to fully charge the battery. Home charging takes about 3 - 4 hours. I haven't used fast charging yet, so I'm not sure how long it takes.

¡¾Car Purchase Experience¡¿
I got a new electric vehicle license plate this year with a budget of 200,000 yuan. I screened vehicles on Dongchedi and compared the data, for which I'm grateful for Dongchedi's powerful data support and photo library. I also went to see many cars in person. I mainly wanted to buy a large - space SUV. I mainly test - drove mid - level and above SUVs such as BYD Sea Lion, Leapmotor C16, EXEED Sterra ES, Buick E5, and XPeng G6. Finally, I decided to buy a 6 - seater car. Thus, the final candidates were narrowed down to C16 and 008.
¡¾Space Performance¡¿
Let's start with the C16. The space seems adequate, but the rear row is a bit cramped. It's definitely enough for daily family use. In case of an emergency, the third row can be used by adjusting the second row as far forward as possible, but it might be a bit crowded for tall or bulky people.
Now, let's talk about the 008. Its space utilization rate is extremely high. The seating space is incredibly large. All three rows have plenty of room. It's a real three - row vehicle where six adults of any height, build can sit comfortably.
¡¾Service Experience¡¿
My experiences at the dealerships I visited were quite good, especially those of new - force brands. They really do a great job, providing food, drinks, and facilities for kids. Traditional established companies should learn from them in this regard as they don't follow up on customers as well in terms of service, and most salespeople give the impression of being slick operators.
After deciding to buy the 008, I set June 21st as the pick - up date. The whole car - picking - up process was quite smooth and fast. I completed all the procedures and drove the car away in less than 4 hours, which deserves a thumbs - up.
¡¾Least Satisfied¡¿
I was supposed to pick up the car on a Saturday (the salesperson said they usually don't arrange car pick - up on Saturdays). Due to being busy, the salesperson didn't introduce the functions in detail, such as how to use the card key and the precautions for vehicle use.
¡¾Most Satisfied¡¿
First, the processes of car pick - up, inspection, and license - plate selection were all very fast. I arrived at 10 a.m. and finished everything before 2 p.m., so I didn't miss out on my afternoon plans.
Second, the vehicle accelerates quickly, has a stable chassis, the air - conditioning cools down rapidly, and the assisted - driving functions are sufficient.
Here, I want to say that the Yipai 008 is not as bad as what's said on the Internet. You must try it in person.
Personally, I recommend buying the ultra version. Don't think the price difference is small, the experience is really different, folks.
