The demand for MPVs has skyrocketed in recent years, and the monopoly of the GL8 in the past is no longer there. Now new energy MPVs are blooming, but they are mainly aimed at the 300,000-500,000 level. But for ordinary users, the budget of about 200,000 is already the ceiling, and the demand for 7-seat large space + low-cost travel is also just needed, so there is no new energy MPV with large space at the 200,000 level?
Recently, Dongfeng Fengxing launched the Wind Planet Sea V9, with a pre-sale range of 179,900-279,900 yuan. This is a new product with a length of more than 5.2 meters, positioning a new energy model of medium and large MPV, will it be an MPV suitable for ordinary consumers?
Wind Planet Sea V9 adopts a new design language in the exterior design, incorporates many Chinese elements, and introduces two front face styles: Chinese knot and Qingyun ladder. The entry-level model adopts a Chinese knot front face, and the new car adopts a complex staggered waterfall chrome grille design. On the other hand, the LED daytime running light clusters on both sides are integrated with the front grille to form an integrated design. The large chrome front face adopts a horizontal design, and the overall styling design strives to pursue a stable and imposing style.
In terms of details, the car has found some small flaws, such as the track of the electric sliding door does not adopt the common design hidden in the window, and it is visually obvious if you choose a white model. However, the body size is more outstanding, with a length/width/height of 5251/1920/1810mm and a wheelbase of 3018mm. In terms of data, it is not inferior to old joint venture MPVs such as Sena and GL8, and the space performance is worth looking forward to.
In terms of interior, Dongfeng Wind Planet Sea V9 is equipped with a 41-inch intelligent ultra-clear triple screen, which integrates Tencent's TAI 4.0 intelligent car machine system. The three-spoke multi-function steering wheel and electronic gear shift mechanism further enhance the sense of technology in the car. Less commonly, it offers 8-way electric adjustment for the co-pilot.
The new car is also equipped with second-row aviation seats with leg rests, with 1020mm second-row slide rails to support lateral movement. There is also a 200mm center tunnel and a longitudinal distance of 922mm between the second and third rows to ensure the interior space, and the armrests of the middle and high-end models are equipped with multimedia touch screens, which support heating, ventilation, massage and control multimedia playback.
The panoramic sunroof covers the overhead position of the second row to ensure visual transparency for rear passengers, while the third-row seats can be folded flat and are equipped with cup holders and charging ports.
In terms of intelligent driving, the Wind Planet Sea V9 is equipped with L2+ level intelligent assisted driving system, including a full range of anti-collision systems, such as forward forward collision warning FCW + active braking AEB + forward crossing warning, lateral lane departure warning LDW + road assist LCA + door opening warning DOW, backward reverse rear vehicle warning RCTA + RCW rear collision warning, etc. In addition, the new car is also equipped with a navigation-assisted driving high-speed NOA function, based on the vehicle's sensors and high-precision maps, to achieve intelligent cruise on high-speed sections, support global path planning, intelligent lane change, automatic obstacle avoidance, automatic on-ramp and other functions.
The most noteworthy thing is the power, the wind planet sea V9 is equipped with a plug-in hybrid system composed of a 1.5T engine and a motor, of which the 1.5T engine has a maximum power of 113kW and a maximum torque of 230N·m, and the total power of the motor is 150kW and a total torque of 310N·m. The new car's CLTC comprehensive range reaches 1300km, and the CLTC pure electric range is 100km and 200km respectively, but it is a pity that the current photographed model supports slow charging, and I don't know if the officially launched model will have a fast charging interface. In addition, the new car is equipped with a 3.3kW external discharge function, which provides convenience for outdoor electricity consumption.
There is a text that says:
The pre-sale price of Dongfeng Wind Planet Sea V9 is really amazing, the 5.2-meter big 7-seat is only 179,900, with a power system with 100 kilometers of pure electric range, compared with Denza D9 and VOYAH Dreamer, these plug-in hybrid MPVs with a price of more than 300,000 are obvious cost-effective advantages. Automobile culture believes that for consumers, there is no need to have too many doubts about the space and practicality of this car, Dongfeng Fengxing itself is from MPV, and has a lot of experience. What needs to be considered is the quality and later cost, the Mach power used in Xinghai V9 is Dongfeng's newly launched plug-in hybrid power, and there are not many new cars currently carried, whether it can achieve the power performance of the official publicity and the quality stability of the later stage, it takes a certain amount of time for market verification.
