Chery Fengyun T9 -Hybrid PHEV

【Space Performance】
I think the space performance is acceptable. I didn't buy the seven-seat version because I really rarely encounter such situations in daily life. A small suggestion: if it's a 5-seat model, I hope the T9 can move the rear row back a bit. The trunk is a bit too big; it would be better to increase the wheelbase. My friend said that if the wheelbase is increased, it won't be at this price. Hahaha. My wife sits in the co-pilot seat, which is the queen co-pilot seat, and there's still a distance of about one and a half to nearly two fists for the legs in the second row. This space is completely acceptable. I am 175cm tall and weigh 140 jin. The driver's seat is very spacious for me.

【Range and Energy Consumption】
I drive 20 kilometers every day after work, and charging once a week is very reasonable. Moreover, I found that the pure electric range displayed on the instrument panel is less than that shown in my navigation or APP travel records. (Gaode shows that it's 11 kilometers from home to the company, but every time I arrive at the company, my pure electric range only decreases by about 8 kilometers, and the fuel range remains unchanged.) I feel very surprised by this. I'll try it again in winter.

【Driver Assistance】
I basically haven't used the driver assistance system; I've only driven more than 2,000 kilometers so far. I'm still not放心 about driver assistance. I feel that controlling the accelerator and brake myself is safer, even on highways.

【Charging Time】
I have always used fast charging (I originally wanted to install a charging pile at home, but after calculation, the cable would be about 120 meters long, which is a bit心疼). Fast charging costs 0.5 yuan per kilowatt-hour at night, and it costs about 10 yuan to fully charge, which is also completely acceptable.

【Maintenance】
It's not time for maintenance yet; I'll talk about it after maintenance.

【Service Experience】
I bought the car at Huariling Auto in Shijiazhuang Qiaoxi Automobile Park. The service attitude is very good. They will bring you water when you enter, and then a salesperson will explain to you. Even if the salesperson is接待 other customers, they will first tell you to rest for a while or look around by yourself. When the salesperson is free, they will find you immediately. This service attitude is very attentive.

Overall, the T9 is a good car (but it's my first car, and I haven't driven other cars. I can't make a comparison. I'm not a troll; it's really the first car for a young couple after marriage). The acceleration is smooth, and the pushing feeling is very strong. The styling is acceptable; different people have different opinions (My Dream car is the Lynk & Co 08, hahahaha, but the budget is not enough).

【Most Dissatisfied】
If I have to say the most dissatisfied thing, it's that the in-car system has too few playable contents. I don't understand why there are no physical buttons for adjusting the rearview mirrors. In addition, there are too few APPs in the in-car system, and there are not many software that are really needed in the application market. There's nothing I want to download when I open it, and it doesn't support uninstallation. Many unused software take up memory. The music software is not what I want; NetEase Cloud and others can't be downloaded. But these can be overcome after using it more.

【Car Purchase Experience】
I have a 2013 Wuling Hongguang van. After using it for a long time, driving a manual car feels quite strenuous. I wasn't sure how much I could sell the old car for, and with the national subsidies available, I thought about getting a new car. I noticed that electric vehicles are quite popular now, and many people around me have bought them, so I searched online and learned about the Fengyun T9. Before that, I also looked at BYD Song and Geely models, visited the stores, and test-drove them. But in terms of body, power, and space, the T9 has an advantage. With the补贴 for my old car, Chery's manufacturer replacement subsidy, and installment payment, the overall price was within my budget, so I went to the store with a friend to trade in the old car.

【Least Satisfactory】
There's nothing particularly unsatisfactory. If I had to mention something, it's that the engine fault light came on shortly after I bought the car. I told the after-sales service about it, and they upgraded the system. Since then, there have been no abnormalities, but I still worry there might be some minor issues. Other than that, there are no problems.

【Charging Time】
Regarding charging time, if using a common 7-kilowatt charger, it takes approximately two to three hours. Recently, I've been running around outside and don't have time to charge, so I use it in hybrid mode like a gasoline car. I try to drive in electric mode when I can charge. I bought this car to save money and for convenience, and I will definitely charge it when I have time.

【Smart Cockpit】
Shifting only requires a light flick, which is very enjoyable to drive; the front passenger seat has an electric adjustment with a "Queen Seat" featuring a massage function; the entire car has purple ambient lights and supports smart voice interaction with "Xiaoqi"; the rear and middle seats are all electric. The car doesn't have automatic parking or sentinel mode, but considering the price, the configuration is acceptable.

Overall, choosing the Fengyun T9 is a good decision. Chery has always been like a "tech guy" focusing on technology, so the car body is particularly sturdy. You have to experience this—the doors are very thick, and sometimes I find it a bit费劲 to open, but the safety is really good. It's equipped with my 1.5T engine paired with a high-power electric drive, so the power is effortless, acceleration is fast, and the space is quite large. When the rear and middle seats are folded down, it has a large space like a van, or like a movable big bed, suitable for multi-purpose use. Therefore, if you have an old car to trade in, I think this model is very suitable and can be recommended.
