car companies release new cars, they often say big things to attract consumers' attention. For example, Li Xiang, the CEO of Ideal Automobile , called the ideal L9 "the best family SUV within 5 million". Coincidentally, Xiaopeng Motors 's brand new SUV Xiaopeng G9 was also called by Xiaopeng Motors CEOHe XiaopengXpeng G9 as "the best SUV within 500,000 yuan". After these remarks appeared, there were many controversies on the Internet, with some denying and others approving. But everyone needs to pay attention, the prices of Ideal L9 and Xiaopeng G9 are not low. For most Chinese families, the family car they need more is not a high-end car, but a price of around 150,000 and a strong product. car models. So the car we are going to talk about next is the most suitable family car for Chinese families, not 5 million, not 500,000, but 150,000. The "ceiling" of
family car is easy to own, with a wheelbase of 2.9 meters, a seat that can be used as a bed, and more power than Honda CR-V. This car is Dongfeng Fengxing Yacht. The starting price of this car is only 119,900, and the top model is priced at 154,900. The whole series comes standard with a 7-seater layout. Seeing this, many people will be curious: the price of Dongfeng Fengxing Yacht is not high, why is this car the most suitable family car for Chinese families? To answer this question, we have to have a deeper understanding of the product performance of this car and see how this car is different from other models.
Let’s look at the exterior design first. The shape of Dongfeng Fengxing Yacht is different from the general 7-seater models. The chrome-plated decoration on the edge of the grille extends to the end of the A pillar , and the design of the grille is relatively strong. The entire grille is similar to a spindle structure, and it is also like a straight waterfall design. The aura is different from the traditional shape. Qi M6, Honda Odyssey. At the same time, there are custom-made breathing lights inside the grille, and there are Galaxy flowing LED headlights on both sides, which looks very bluffing, more domineering than Trumpchi M6 and Odyssey .
The side profile of the body is relatively slender, and there are silver chrome decorations on the upper and lower edges of the windows, but the two chrome decorations in the rear D-pillar area are not connected. At the same time, the waistline has its own sense of undulation. In contrast, the body lines of the Trumpchi M6 and Honda Odyssey are relatively flat, and they are not as grand as popular yachts. It is worth mentioning that the exterior rearview mirror of this car comes with a welcome function, which is unique in the same class. The wheel size reaches 18 inches, which is the same specification as that of the high-end Odyssey, while the maximum size of the Trumpchi M6 wheel is only 17 inches.
Next, look at the body size, which is also the most important part of a 7-seater car. The body measurements of Dongfeng Fengxing Yacht are 4850/1900/1715mm, and the wheelbase is 2900mm. The Trumpchi M6 has a length of 4780mm and a wheelbase of 2810mm. The length of the Honda Odyssey is very close to that of Dongfeng Fengxing Yacht, and the wheelbase is also 2900mm. That is to say, in terms of size, the Dongfeng Fengxing yacht is comparable to the Honda Odyssey, and the size is much larger than the Trumpchi M6 at the same price. At the same time, the seats in the car are made of NAPPA leather, which is delicate and high-grade in touch, and is the same material as a luxury car with more than 300,000 yuan.
At the same time, Dongfeng Fengxing Yacht is the first car model that uses scenes to define the car category. The seats in this car can switch the seat function and layout according to different scenes. For example, when parents are taking care of their children in the second row, they can use the four-way adjustment function equipped with the second row of seats to move the two seats together into a parent-child seat, which is convenient for parents to take care of their children. This function is also available in the Honda Odyssey, but not in the Trumpchi M6.
When the car owner feels tired after driving for a long time during the journey, he can connect the seats of the first row and the second row 180°, and change into a lying sleep mode in seconds, which is equivalent to turning the seats in the car into a double bed. Realize "yacht lying down", you can lie down and sleep in the car. this oneNeither Trumpchi M6 nor Honda Odyssey are designed. When large items need to be loaded, the third row of seats can be folded down completely, and the trunk space can be expanded to 1086L, which can easily hold children's bicycles, large-sized suitcases and other items. If the vehicle is parked in a safe place when taking the children out for camping, the fully flat trunk can also become a children's playground. If the family goes out together, the 2900mm wheelbase + 7-seat layout can bring ample space for three rows, and there are as many as 43 storage compartments in the car, which can store many large and small objects.
In terms of configuration, Dongfeng Fengxing Yacht also pays attention to the travel safety of passengers in the car, and provides vital sign monitoring and child forgetting reminder functions, which are currently available in many high-end new power models, but it is not available on Trumpchi M6 and Honda Odyssey. Rarely seen anymore. In actual travel, this function can monitor the passengers in the car. If the child is still in the car after getting off the car, the car will send out a reminder, which greatly guarantees the safety of passengers. In terms of driving assistance, this car provides a class-leading L2+ intelligent assisted driving system and 360° panoramic images, which include functions such as merging assistance, fatigue driving prompts, and DOW door opening warnings that Trumpchi M6 and Honda Odyssey do not have. In actual travel, the fatigue driving reminder can monitor the status of the car owner during long-distance driving, and will remind the car owner if the car owner is found to be driving fatigued. For novice drivers, the panoramic image function with a transparent chassis can more comprehensively see the surrounding conditions of the vehicle when reversing, and avoid bumps and scratches.
As for power, Dongfeng Fengxing Yacht is equipped with a 1.5T engine with a maximum power of 197 horsepower. The matching 7-speed DCT is Magna Top Ten Transmissions in the World. This set of power is not only stronger than the 1.5T of the Trumpchi M6 in terms of parameters, but also exceeds the 1.5T of the Honda CR-V. You must know that the maximum power of the 1.5T of the CR-V is only 193 horsepower. At the same time, this set of power takes fuel consumption into account. The minimum WLTC fuel consumption per 100 kilometers is only 6.6L, while the WLTC fuel consumption per 100 kilometers of Trumpchi M6 is 7.52L-8.15L.
In summary, combined with the product strength of Dongfeng Fengxing Yacht, this car can be said to be the "ceiling" of a 7-seater family car within 150,000. On the one hand, the hard core strength of this model is very strong. No matter the appearance design, body size, seat materials, interior configuration or power performance, it is not inferior to the Trumpchi M6 and Honda Odyssey, and even surpassed it. On the other hand, this car pays attention to the actual experience of users, combines the needs of users in different scenarios, and provides a variety of seat functions and layouts, which can be called a "domestic Odyssey". Perhaps because of this, we say that the "ceiling" of family cars has changed hands, and Dongfeng Fengxing yachts are the "ceiling" of family cars.
