In the urban road conditions, even if there are more starts and stops, the new car also has a light acceleration. The texture of the chassis has also been improved, which is different from the thinness of the old model.

The information display of the 12.3-inch color TFT full LCD instrument panel is relatively rich, but the design lacks a sense of refinement, and there is a significant gap with the European model. The steering wheel leather is softer and feels very comfortable to the touch, but the diameter is on the larger side. The central control screen size of the new car has reached the current mainstream 12.3 inches, and it has built-in "Fengyun Enjoyment", facial ID recognition, voice control and other common functions, but the operation fluency is not very good.
