Haoji is the first SUV model built based on Dongfeng Group's DSMA advanced modular architecture platform, using the design style officially called "Wind Trace", and the appearance design of Haoji is more tough, which is obviously different from other models of Dongfeng Fengshen. The front face is made of black piano paint material in large areas, which enhances the refinement of the whole car. The light-emitting material LOGO above the front center net makes Haoji more recognizable even on dark nights.
The windward flag daytime running lamp on the front face is a very characteristic part, and the decorative shape inside the lamp group echoes the design style of "Traces of the Wind", giving people the feeling of drifting with the wind, and it is very characteristic to run through the lamp with the rhythm of the wind. Haoji adopts a split headlight design, and below is a full LED light source of high and low light integrated headlights.
The side of the car emphasizes the sense of line, while the blackened roof, wheels, door handles, side skirts and other parts enhance a certain sense of sportiness. Although positioned as a compact SUV, the body size of the Haoji reaches 4720mm/1910mm/1702mm and the wheelbase size is 2825mm. Compared with the competing Changan CS75PLUS's 2710mm and Haval H6's 2738mm, it has obvious advantages.
Thanks to the large body size, the rear row of the Haoji MHD has a volume of 1606L after reclining, and can be reclined 180° flat, with a maximum depth of 2009mm, a maximum width of 1500mm, and a double bed of 2 meters × 1 meter 5. Even if you're traveling as a family, packing everyone's luggage is no problem.
Entering the car, Haoji's interior design style is also clearly different from the previous Fengshen models, and it can be said that the design concept of "Traces of the Wind" represents the future design style trend of Fengshen . Different from Yixuan and AX7 models, Haoji places the central control screen above the instrument panel, with the curved design, presenting a rich sense of layering. The layout of the center control screen is biased to the driver's side, and the physical buttons of the air conditioning control are retained below, which is convenient for the driver to operate blindly. In front of the co-pilot, there is also a star-like embellishment after the ambient lights are on, and the whole is made of piano lacquer. In the gear shift area, brushed trim panels are used to highlight a certain mechanical texture.
The Haoji MHD model is available in two interior styles: blue and white and pure black. The black interior is popular at the moment, and the color is calmer, but if you add some contrast at the stitching, it will look more lively. The blue and white contrast design belongs to a special design for young people's preferences, and the overall texture is good.
Haoji MHD has WindLink OS intelligent cockpit, LCD instrument can display AR real scene navigation, the display effect is very clear, convenient for novices to identify the line more easily under the condition of ensuring safety.
The Haoji MHD model has a queen's co-driver, with a maximum adjustment angle of 83° in the leg rest and 128° in the seat back, so that the co-driver can enjoy a more comfortable trip. And close to the shoulders, it is decorated with diamond-shaped stitching, which further enhances the refinement of the interior under the blue and white color combination.
The Haoji MHD model is equipped with AR intelligent butler AR and AR projection sensing tailgate. In terms of intelligent driving system, it has 27 intelligent driving assistance functions, and is equipped with 360° intelligent perception system, 540° ultra-clear panoramic image and 180° perspective chassis function. FAPA remote parking can not only identify the marked parking space, but also intelligently identify the space parking space. Remote parking supports remote parking, horizontal parking left and right, and remote control forward and backward, covering all daily parking scenarios, improving the convenience of using the car. However, the multifunction buttons on the steering wheel are not marked, and it may take some time for first-time beginners to get used to.
In terms of power, Haoji is equipped with a 1.5T engine codenamed C15TDR, and audiences familiar with Dongfeng should know that this engine was actually launched in April last year, but there was no matching hybrid system at that time. This engine has the highest thermal efficiency of 41.07%. In terms of technology, the combustion system uses the Atkinson cycle, a 350 bar high-pressure injection system, as well as high-pressure cooling EGR, a high tumble-to-flow ratio intake duct, and a high compression ratio combustion chamber.
Dongfeng's unique technology is the use of a "cross-flow cooling system" in the cylinder head, which forcibly allows coolant to pass through the hot side of the cylinder head, which makes the suppression of the engine heat load more refined. Another example is the use of DLC coating on the piston pin and valve tappet, which further reduces the internal friction resistance, and achieves the purpose of saving fuel and improving power.
