Now more and more friends like to travel by car, open a variety of short video APP, you can find more and more families began to drive out of the caravan. How much does a motorhome cost? 500,000 or 600,000, can't be said? For us working people, it is indeed a relatively expensive expense. So is there a motorhome at the right price? Naturally there is, today we come to talk about a motorhome, strictly speaking, it is a light passenger that has not been modified, this car type is Dongfeng Royal Wind.
The price of Dongfeng Royal Wind is relatively grounded, the manufacturer's guidance price is 11.98 to 240,800, and this new car is a new model listed in September last year. Did you know? This model also has a twin brother, called the Royal Wind Caravan, the manufacturer's guide price is 39.98 ~ 66.88 million, this model is actually an improved version of the Royal Wind. That's why I started this article by saying it's an unmodified motorhome because it does have a motorhome base.
The overall design of Dongfeng Royal Wind is very atmospheric, and the whole vehicle looks particularly high, which gives the small partner endless potential for in-car modification. From the front face, the headlights on both sides are connected by chrome trim strips, and the interior is inlaid with dongfeng logos, which looks unpretentious. The configuration of the headlights is not particularly high, and it is equipped with halogen headlights. In addition, in order to improve safety performance, the new car is equipped with daytime running lights.
From the side, the car is really tall and big, but the wheel size is on the small side, so it doesn't look so coordinated. Body data part, Dongfeng Yufeng has several configurations, we introduce an entry-level body data, length, width and height are 5000/2036/2375mm, wheelbase is 3100mm.
As for the rear design, the design of the common motorhome is adopted, and the opening method of the opposite door can maximize the flexible space and utilization of the car. Although the exterior design of this model does not have many highlights, the unpretentious design can still attract a considerable number of consumers.
Looking at the interior design, the interior design of Dongfeng Yufeng is quite interesting, the symmetrical center console, the embedded screen, these are the ordinary version of the configuration that we can see, but the special feature of this model is that the front row has three seats, which is built for logistics vehicles, is it very magical? Of course, such a design can also be converted into a motorhome.
The rear seats are relatively spacious, and the seats are hard connected with the bottom platform through screws, and the comfort is not to be thought of, most of the friends will remove the seats for modification after buying back, and there are modified into logistics vehicles, which can also be converted into RVs. As a digression, there are now more and more manufacturers of caravan transformation, which has formed an industrial chain. In general, this Dongfeng Royal Wind model has a spacious space, general configuration, and there is not much eye-catching design, large space, strong power should be the characteristics of this model, and then we will talk about the power system.
Dongfeng Yufeng is equipped with 2.0T, 2.3T and 2.4T turbocharged engines, and all of them are diesel engines, making them more powerful to drive. In the gearbox part, this model is equipped with a six-speed manual transmission and is not equipped with automatic gears, which is also one of the biggest regrets of this model.
The chassis is designed with a stronger bearing, with front-facing and front-rear-drive drive, front McPherson independent suspension, rear Hodgkis suspension. Introducing this suspension, we know that the most used should be Jiangling Ford, which especially likes to use such a chassis design, and has been used for more than half a century on the light bus model. This suspension uses a variable rigid spring suspension, which is more comfortable than leaf springs, but there is not much difference in essence.
