I used to like American cars; I previously drove a Cruze and a LaCrosse, so I really like those lines and the "big mouth" design. Mainly, it's the color too—the Aurora Green looks very nice, but it gets dirty too easily. Everyone, choose carefully, especially those brothers with the built-in car wash bad luck charm. Anyway, whenever I wash my car, it rains, and I often feel down.
In terms of driving, since it has a sporty suspension, it's on the stiffer side, with obvious road feedback. The tires are wide, so stability is high, braking distance is short, and the turning radius is also acceptable. Anyway, I personally can accept it. The chassis stability is high, and in sport mode, the power is abundant, which is very exciting.
The main reason for switching to it is fuel efficiency. I commute 42 kilometers every day, and I charge it on average every two days. The company provides free charging; if I use DC fast charging and pay, it costs a little over 13 yuan to fully charge. Occasionally, I go out for drives. Anyway, since I picked up the car on April 17th, I've driven 2000 kilometers so far, with a total cost of less than 800 yuan. Previously, with the LaCrosse, it was 1.6 yuan per kilometer, and I was either at the gas station or on my way there.
I chose the Dasheng i-DM because it's the only model in this price range equipped with dual-motor three-speed DHT hybrid technology. The 2022 model did have a bad reputation, but I observed it for a long time and analyzed some things, and later thought the cost-effectiveness was really good. Finally, I chose this car based on some car owners' reviews. Anyway, the most important thing about a car is that you like it yourself. I think hybrids are much better than range extenders. When the engine kicks in, there's basically no sound, unlike range extenders, which due to matching issues, make too much noise when operating, resulting in a poor experience. This is a personal opinion; feel free to criticize, but I still prioritize making friends.
