At the 2024 Beijing International Automobile Exhibition, family SUV models were unveiled, especially new energy vehicles. Therefore, the editor selected two models with L7 in their names, namely Geely Galaxy L7 and Dongfeng Fengshen L7, both of which are compact SUVs. If you plan to buy a car in the near future and your budget is about 120,000-150,000 yuan, you can find out.
Contrast in appearance
Let's take a look at the Galaxy L7 first, the closed front face, the through-type light strip in the middle connects the headlight groups on both sides, which looks very sharp. The running lights on both sides adopt a vertical layout, supplemented by repeated line decoration, and the overall design is very distinctive. Looking back at Fengshen L7, I can't help but sigh, is this appearance a "tribute" to the Galaxy L7? It can't be said to be exactly the same, but there is a certain degree of similarity. However, the front face line of Fengshen L7 is tougher, and it is also a through-type headlight, but the shape of the headlight group is more angular and looks more divine. The J-shaped shape on both sides is combined with the blackened mouth below, which widens the entire front face and makes it look more rugged.
On the side, both cars have blackened D-pillars to create floating roofs. The Galaxy L7 uses traditional door handles, while the Fengshen L7 uses the common hidden door handles. At the rear, both cars are also equipped with the most popular through-type taillights, but the shape of the Galaxy L7 also extends to the sides of the body.

The body size of the Galaxy L7 is 4700/1905/1685mm with a wheelbase of 2785mm, while the length, width and height of the Fengshen L7 are 4685/1900/1625mm with a wheelbase of 2775mm. Judging from the data alone, the Galaxy L7 surpasses the Fengshen L7 in an all-round way. But in fact, there is not much difference between these two sets of data, so I think there is not much difference in the interior space performance of these two cars.
Interior contrast
In terms of interior, Fengshen L7 adopts an enveloping cockpit layout, with a 14.6-inch floating central control screen and a 10.25-inch LCD instrument cluster in the center console with a staggered front and rear layout, and a large area of the car is wrapped in soft materials. The Galaxy L7 presents a three-screen layout, equipped with a 13.2-inch central control screen and a 10.25-inch LCD instrument cluster, which is one more than the Fengshen L7 with a 16.2-inch entertainment screen, and the higher version of the model is also equipped with a 25.6-inch AR-HUD augmented reality head-up display.
In terms of intelligence, Fengshen L7 is equipped with WindLink OS 3.0 intelligent cockpit, and the whole system is equipped with Qualcomm 8155 chip as standard, while Galaxy L7 is equipped with Geely Galaxy N OS intelligent cockpit, which is also standard with Qualcomm 8155 chip in all systems. At the same time, both Fengshen L7 and Galaxy L7 have L2 intelligent driving assistance functions. Judging from the lowest configuration model, Fengshen L7 is more comprehensive, with more automatic lane change assistance and high-speed automatic driving assistance sections.
Power comparison
In terms of power, the Dongfeng Fengshen L7 is equipped with a 1.5T plug-in hybrid system with a maximum engine power of 113kW and a maximum torque of 240Nm, and an electric motor with a maximum power of 100kW and a peak torque of 260Nm. The Galaxy L7 is equipped with a plug-in hybrid system consisting of a 1.5T engine and an electric motor, with a maximum engine power of 120kW and a maximum torque of 255Nm, and an electric motor with a maximum power of 107kW and a peak torque of 338Nm. Judging from the book data, the Galaxy L7 is more powerful. Moreover, both models eat "coarse grains" and only need to add 92 gasoline, which has good fuel economy.
In terms of range, the Fengshen L7 has a longer range. In CLTC mode, the Fengshen L7 provides an all-electric range of 110 km and 205 km, with a combined range of 1,400 km and 1,500 km, while the Galaxy L7 has an all-electric range of 55 km and 115 km, with a combined range of 1,310 km and 1,370 km. At the same time, both cars support fast charging.
Love reviews
Through the above comparison, it can be seen that the strength of the two cars is equal. When it comes to exterior and interior, it's impossible to define who is good and who's bad, it's just a matter of personal preference. But there is a clear gap in power and range. Although, the comprehensive mileage of the Galaxy L7 is not as advantageous as the Fengshen L7, but its power is more abundant, and the price of the entry model is lower than that of the Fengshen L7, only 125,700 yuan, so the Galaxy L7 is more worth having. However, there are other configuration models of these two cars, and the prices are not the same, so interested friends can go to test drive and compare them before making a decision.
