Dongfeng e ¦Ð 007

The appearance is top-notch. The seating space is quite roomy, but the trunk doesn't live up to the expectations of a hatchback model! The lights are good (especially the headlights in this price range), and the reading lights also deserve praise. Although the trunk light has been changed to LED, it's still not very bright, and the license plate light is still a halogen one... The sound of the spoiler lifting is a bit loud... The brakes are linear, and the acceleration is responsive. The power of the 2.0T engine is solid (I have the extended-range version). The chassis is a bit softer and more resilient compared to the 2024 model. It's no longer just stiff. The electric release button isn't as dangerous as I thought. I'm 172 cm tall, and when I adjust the seat to the lowest position, I can't touch it anyway. The seat massage is comfortable, and the intensity has been improved compared to the 2024 model. The backrest ventilation is better than nothing. Compared to the 2024 model, the noise improvement is really significant. The motor noise and low-frequency head-banging have been obviously improved, especially the low-frequency head-banging. In the 2024 model, I'd get a headache when driving at 80 km/h (2024 model owners, don't scold me (??¦Ø?)? ºÙ. Thanks to your support, we can have a better experience with the new model). The panoramic sunroof is okay. It's not too hot (maybe the weather here isn't too hot). The audio system is great, but you have to use the car's audio source. You'll basically have to say goodbye to Bluetooth music. (Don't believe those online tutorials that mess around with the sound effects. As soon as you see them boosting the midrange, just exit and say goodbye). It's not a top-tier audio system, so why boost the midrange? You can get a great audio effect by appropriately increasing the bass and treble. Just keep it moderate. After all, the price doesn't support a large dynamic range.

¡¾Range and Energy Consumption¡¿
I went to Guizhou to pick up the car. It's over 200 kilometers from Zunyi to Chongqing. Since there are many tunnels there and the speed limit is always 80, the energy consumption was just over 11. Usually, with the air - conditioner on, it's around 12. The energy consumption is well - controlled. I once got an electricity consumption of 16 when always trying to be the first to start at traffic lights, so it's highly related to driving style. Normally, it's around 12.
I commute over 30 kilometers every day. With occasional trips for fun, I only need to charge the car once every half - month. There's absolutely no range anxiety, and charging is also cheap, which saves money.

¡¾Appearance and Interior¡¿
Regarding the appearance, I'm very satisfied with the spoiler, the red caliper covers, and the rich look of the paint. However, I'm not particularly fond of the car logo, which consists of two darts in a spiral - symmetric rather than an axisymmetric design.
I chose white for the interior. When I picked up the car, I thought the orange seat belts had a kind of flamboyant yet nice look. One thing about the interior is that it looks red under the light like that of the evening glow, especially when compared with the white car paint, and this difference is more obvious.

¡¾Driving Experience¡¿
I used to drive a Peugeot 308s. The steering feel of this car is quite similar to that of the Peugeot 308s, very responsive. In terms of the chassis, due to the MacPherson suspension, it feels a bit inferior to the double - wishbone suspension of the XPeng P7+. The road feel of the MacPherson suspension isn't as clear. But it's much better than those of Leapmotor, Deepal, Qiyuan, Aion, and BYD in the same price range (after all, the price is what it is). Especially after switching to the sport mode, there's a strong sense of acceleration. However, it's not recommended to use the sport mode in urban areas as it's hard to control and may affect safety.

¡¾Cockpit¡¿
Before buying the car, I was worried that the infotainment system without the 8295 chip would lag. After getting the car, compared with the infotainment system of my Peugeot 308s petrol car, it exceeded my expectations. I haven't noticed any lag or system crashes, and it's very smooth. It seems that the voice function hasn't been integrated with a large - scale model yet, or maybe I just haven't figured it out.

2. [Test Drive Experience]

1. Basic Introduction
Test drive model: e¦Ð 007 2024 Edition 200Pro Extended - Range Version
Test drive duration: 30 minutes for static testing, 20 minutes for dynamic testing
Weather: Sunny, 38¡ãC
Route: Urban roads, viaducts, bumpy roads, with good road conditions.

2. Driving Experience
I think the driving feeling of this extended - range version is not much different from that of the pure - electric version. The main difference is that the acceleration in the latter part is not as strong as that of the pure - electric version. The official claim for the 0 - 100 km/h acceleration is 7.2 seconds. I measured it twice myself. The measurement with a mobile stopwatch may have errors. There were two people in the car. One time it was 7.9 seconds, and the other time it was 8 seconds. Just take these as a reference. The data is not extremely impressive. It may even be inferior to some fuel - powered cars. However, the instant acceleration at the start is still unmatched by fuel - powered cars in the same price range. The feeling of being pushed back in the seat from 0 - 60 km/h is very strong, like a surge of adrenaline. The brakes give me the impression of being very responsive and sensitive. There is no feeling of not being able to stop. I tested it by driving at 80 km/h and then making an emergency stop. The braking distance was not long, and the body posture was very stable. When overtaking on the viaduct at a speed of 70 km/h, it was very powerful. The steering wheel was very accurate in pointing, and turning and changing lanes were straightforward. It was easy to control when parking in a parking space. However, when I suddenly drove this car, I clearly felt that the steering wheel was heavier than that of fuel - powered cars. The chassis support was very strong. When turning on a ramp at a speed of 50 km/h, the roll feeling was not significant, and the grip was good. The shock absorption was on the hard side, and the vibration filtering performance was average. It didn't belong to the comfortable category. However, when passing over speed bumps, the rebound was well - controlled and very crisp. It was still a bit bumpy when passing over potholed roads.
If compared with the 008, this car is obviously more sporty. The chassis is also more taut, and the steering assist feel is heavier. It seems that the 008 belongs to the comfort type, while this one belongs to the sporty type.
3. Seating and Storage Space
Since it is an extended - range version, there is no front trunk. The engine compartment is enclosed, and it looks quite nice. The trunk has an electric hatchback door, which is irresistible to me. The entire passage is quite large, similar to my car. Maybe the internal width is not as wide as my car, but it can presumably hold three 24 - inch suitcases without a problem. It is also very convenient to take out and put in large items through the hatchback door. The seats can be completely flattened, and one person can lie down after they are folded down. In addition, I found that the rear seats are folded down as a whole, not in sections. I'm not quite sure why it is designed like this. For someone like me who often transports things, if the rear seats could be folded down in sections, people could still sit on one side while long items could be placed on the other side, which would be very convenient. However, the design of folding down as a whole means that no one can sit in the back when transporting things.
The interior seating space is fine. I'm 175 cm tall and weigh 58 kg. When sitting in the back row, there is about one - and - a - half fists of space between my head and the sunroof, and there is two - fists of legroom. When the driver's seat is adjusted to the highest position, there is still one fist of space above my head. The inside of the armrest box can hold three bottles of water, and there is an air outlet inside, which is very practical in summer. The opening method of the armrest box is also different. There is a button switch. Press it, and it will automatically pop open like a double - door refrigerator, looking quite high - end. The size of the cup holder is quite regular, but after the cover on it is pressed open, it will stand upright at the back. It should presumably be able to be pressed down and hidden, but it can't. It feels quite in the way, and I don't quite understand it. There is also a central armrest in the back row with two cup holders, but there are no fixed clips inside. It seems that tall and thin thermos cups are easy to tip over. The layout of the wireless charging area in the front is very reasonable and tidy. It is very convenient to pick up and put down the phone. It supports 50W fast charging and is equipped with a heat - dissipation vent. The storage slot on the door panel is quite large, while the glove box is just average. It seems that it can't hold too many things.
