Conclusion
The success of a product, the value of the face is not a plus, but a basic item. Xingtu Chasing Wind ET-i is exquisite and beautiful in appearance design, coexistence of technology and fashion sense on the interior, mixed with ET-i hybrid technology in terms of power, its fuel economy is more objective, and the endurance of thousands of kilometers and pure electric endurance of 105km is also enough to meet the basic needs of consumers' daily use of cars. In the domestic new energy vehicle companies, BYD can be said to be the benchmark of plug-in hybrid power, which has driven the development of plug-in hybrid power, so can Chery Xingtu Chase ET-i win consumer recognition for Chery in the market of plug-in hybrid models? Let's wait and see.
