Recently, "playing a pig and eating a tiger" is like a network phrase that frequently appears in the field of vision, not out of thin air, but there are several new cars that look "aggressive" but are actually pulling up the ceiling, such as the Dongfeng Fengshen Ax7 Mach version, which is a model that pulls up the power ceiling.
As a new model of the AX7, the Dongfeng Fengshen AX7 version is the first Mach-powered SUV, and it is even known as a "road rocket". It can be said that in the 10-150,000-level SUV market, there is one more player with an inner volume. Recently, we test drove the Dongfeng Fengshen ax7 Mach version, let's take a look.
In terms of appearance and styling, the new car adopts the latest family design language compared to the previous version, which is called "storm aesthetics", not to mention that this is a modification, and it is not too much to say that it is replaced. The digital grille has a unique shape and is integrated with the narrow full LED headlights, which enhances the visual impact and overall sense of the front of the car, and the interior is blackened, and the "plus" logo is added inside, which is highly recognizable. In addition, the Mach 7 version eliminated the fog lights, replaced them with a wind outlet decoration, and added bright red trim strips to the details, making the front of the car look more dynamic.
On the side of the body, the 19-inch Blast tomahawk wheels are very dynamic, coupled with the suspension roof, the prominent high waist line, the contrasting side skirt trim, you can also find the "mach" at the fenders to verify the body, overall more sporty than before. However, in terms of the tail, the change will be even greater, and the wind blade-type through taillight shape is good-looking, and there are popular popular elements nowadays.
In terms of interior, in fact, there is not much change in the layout, but it has spent some more effort on color matching and materials to please young consumers, such as providing the star sea blue color panel interior for the first time, unfortunately, we encountered this time or the conventional color scheme. On the material, a large area of soft leather wrapping, relatively thick, at the same time, the new car uses zero pressure high-quality leather seats, quite pleasing, and the seat function is relatively complete, electric adjustment, seat memory, ventilation, heating, waist rest, massage function are all there, comfort has been well guaranteed.
The size of the LCD instrument and the central control large screen has reached 12.3 inches, in addition to the conventional navigation, entertainment, voice control, 5G, ota upgrade, blind spot monitoring, 360-degree panoramic image, etc. This SUV is also equipped, and the entire UI interface design and image clarity are good. It is worth mentioning that the wireless charging of mobile phones comes with anti-slip at the bottom, and it can be put and charged, at this level, there are not many details to do well.
Since it is an SUV called a "road rocket", the Mach version of the power performance is bound to be able to get its hands on. First of all, we look at the data, this Mach power 1.5t engine independently developed by Dongfeng Group has the reputation of the "Heart of China" top ten engines, its maximum power is 140kw, the maximum torque is 300n·m, to know that the data of the 2.0t launched by a certain Li Mourui is just so, but the Mach 1.5t version of ax7 has done it.
And matched with it is the world's "top ten" Getrag 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. So, in terms of experience, without even having to step deeply on the accelerator pedal, we can not only get a direct positive acceleration, but also a little bit of push back feeling. To its credit, even in the back of the acceleration, the power output continuity is maintained well, while the power output is very smooth. In the city or on the highway, overtaking is easier.
In fact, we have test-drove the Yixuan max, which is also equipped with Mach 1.5t power, and the performance of the overall power is very consistent. And this consistency also extends to steering and braking. The steering wheel is precisely pointed, but the steering feel is somewhat comfortable, and the adjustment of the brake pedal is relatively linear, but the pedal has a braking effect.
In terms of chassis, the suspension of the front McPherson rear multi-link is more conventional, and the overall feeling is more consistent with its home positioning, and the adjustment is soft. When cornering, the support of the roll is still good, but in the face of speed bumps or potholes, the handling of bumps is not as soft as Yixuan max, and it is relatively hard.
Written in the end: Overall, the comprehensive quality of the Dongfeng Fengshen ax7 Mach version is not bad, as about 100,000 SUVs, power is the biggest highlight of this car, the key is that it controls the comprehensive fuel consumption of 100 kilometers at 6.6l, for young people, mobilizing the driving passion, the cost of the car is not high, home, this car is a good choice.
