The Tang DM-i medium-sized SUV is like this, the power system is definitely one of its major advantages, with sufficient power output and excellent fuel economy, as a family or business car can be used.
The entry-level model has a pure electric range of 52km, and the other two models have a pure electric cruising range of 112km, both equipped with blade batteries. In the process of driving, if the power is sufficient, the vehicle will give priority to the use of pure electric mode, when the power is insufficient, it will automatically switch to the HEV series mode, which is simply that the engine will be used as an engine to provide power for the motor, and finally the motor will drive the vehicle, with a linear power output.
Balancing fuel economy and power delivery, it is very "smart" and the driving experience is biased towards calm and comfort. Double-layer acoustic glass is standard in the front row, which optimizes noise reduction and sound insulation for a more advanced travel experience.

The top metal strip extends to the two sides of the headlight group, the interior of the headlights is dotted with blue-purple elements, after lighting up, it has a corresponding sense of technology, and the lower bracket is the conventional design.
The body side shape is slender and full, the suspension roof is the popular design of the moment, and the natural downward pressure of the roof weakens the bulky feeling of the rear, coupled with the uplift posture of the body. The slender lower window line forms a raised profile between the C and D columns. This design is still relatively flattering, the body surface is simply decorated with two upturned waistlines, bulging outwards alone, and the upper panels of the front and rear wheel eyebrows are obviously protruding outwards, which makes the body more burly.
The rear of the car is concave and convex, the through-type taillights widen the rear of the rear horizontal visual effect, and the slender light strip is embedded in a blackened panel to strengthen the sporty atmosphere of the rear.

After all, as an everyday family car, a calm atmosphere can be.

Most of the functions in the car are integrated into the large size of the central control screen by "simple and rough", which supports adaptive rotation. The lower panel of the central control screen protrudes outwards, and the air outlet of the long strip air conditioner is more designed.
The shift table is wrapped in a large number of blackened paint panels, and the flat shape of the gear shift handle is designed in the middle position, surrounded by some commonly used driving buttons, and the Chinese marked on the surface of the buttons looks more intimate. The central control armrest box adopts a folio design, and the leather-wrapped seat is designed with contrast stitching, and the surface is decorated with stitches in a diamond pattern, which is quite high-grade.
The driving space performance is decent, using a 2+3+2 layout design, the space performance of the third row of seats is good, and sitting on it will not give people the feeling of sitting on a small bench. The third row of seats is fully reclined, and the trunk platform forms a flat space. It can be used to carry people or pull goods. In addition, the car is also equipped with a row plug, supporting reverse output 220V power supply, this function is still very practical for car owners who usually like to go out.
