For family users, when choosing a car, it is always inseparable from keywords such as large space, economy, and brand reputation. The car we are going to talk about today may meet the above car purchase demands, it is the new medium and large sedan of Dongfeng Autonomous Passenger Car - Yipai eπ007. At present, there are 5 models of eπ007 on sale, of which 4 are pure electric models and 1 is an extended range version, with a guide price of 159,600-199,600 yuan. Considering that most Chinese people's car scenarios are mainly urban travel, and at the same time, they need to take into account the needs of short- and medium-distance travel, so the 2024 200Pro extended range version at the price threshold is more attractive, let's take a look at how this car performs in terms of product power.
eπ007 is still very in line with the public's understanding of the word "young sports" in the appearance design, and some sharp line decorations have been added to the closed front face design, which enhances the delicacy of the entire front face. The shape of the headlight group is more chic, and the split light group integrates the high and low beam function, and supports automatic headlights, headlight height adjustment, etc. From the side of the body, the vehicle adopts the streamlined body design that a fastback coupe should have, and the window line rises from the A-pillar and slowly falls when it comes to the C-pillar, with a simple and elegant visual effect.
On the side of the car, you can also see the use of hidden door handles, low-drag two-tone wheels, and the interior of the rim is hollowed out, reflecting the red brake caliper paint, highlighting the appearance of the recognizable appearance. The lines of the rear of the car are familiar with the wide-body shoulder design, and like the Changan UNI-V, the rear also integrates a hidden electric lifting rear wing, which will actively rise up when the speed is increased to a certain level, increasing the downforce of the rear of the car. Echoing the slender through-type LED taillights, the light strip runs across the rear profile, and the lamp cavity is densely arranged with white slides, which are also well recognizable in the state of not being lit.
The interior of eπ007 adopts a conventional dual-screen layout, consisting of an 8.8-inch full LCD instrument and a 15.6-inch central control screen, of which the hardware computing power of the car machine is provided by Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155, the fluency of application switching or turning on and off when operating the screen is not bad, and the accuracy of voice recognition and timely response can also be ensured in the navigation map interface. However, there are many physical buttons missing under the central control screen, such as conventional multimedia control, air conditioning control and other buttons, which are not very convenient to use.
As far as space is concerned, I am 1.78 meters tall, and after sitting in the front row of eπ007, I intuitively feel that the headroom is sufficient, the longitudinal leg room can reach a distance of about 2 and a half fists, and the lateral space is also relatively wide, compared with mainstream family cars, the horizontal space is an advantage. In addition, the seat padding is soft, so you can sit on it with a nice wrapping feeling, and you can also use the seat ventilation function to dissipate heat and ventilation during the season, and use the seat heating function to create a comfortable riding environment in winter. The fly in the ointment is that the second-row seats only support the entire row of seats, and the convenience is not optimistic in the face of some complex and changeable usage scenarios.
In terms of power, the eπ007 range extender is equipped with a 1.5L range extender + rear motor range extender power system, with a total power of 218 horsepower and a total torque of 310 Nm·m. In terms of suspension structure, this car adopts the common front MacPherson + rear multi-link suspension, with a comprehensive fuel consumption of 4.79L/100km under the feeding condition, and the official 0-100km/h acceleration takes only 7 seconds2. Judging from the book parameters, this car has a certain competitiveness in the medium and large sedan market segment in terms of power and economy. After driving up, I found that the tuning of the chassis is tough, the feedback on the lateral support is very solid, and the fast turning and lane change are also very confident, and the motor direct drive accelerates quickly, the brake foot feeling is somewhat similar to that of the oil car, and the kinetic energy recovery support is all closed, but after getting used to the strong kinetic energy recovery mode, it feels quite easy to use.
Edit summary
If your budget is just within 200,000 yuan, and you plan to buy a family car with good power, comfort, sense of space, and intelligence, then I think Dongfeng Yipai eπ007 has good competitiveness in this price range, and the fuel economy of this car is also good.
