129,900! Chery Fengyun T9 is listed, with a battery life of 1800km.

On May 21st, the first SUV—— of Chery Fengyun series, Fengyun T9, was officially launched. The new car is subdivided into four versions, and the price is 129,900 ~ 169,900 yuan.

Now buy a new car and a big gift package. Including the replacement subsidy of up to 15,000 yuan, unlimited flow for 2 years, free installation of household charging piles, etc. By the end of the conference, the T9 order volume had exceeded 50,000 units.

It’s only halfway through 2024, and the plug-in hybrid market has become a red sea. Roewe D5DMH was launched yesterday, and the starting price of 110,000 yuan is quite attractive. Today, there will be a king bombing immediately, and the Fengyun T9 with 129,900 cars is a 4-meter-8 medium-sized SUV … In terms of power, everyone is most concerned about, the new car is equipped with a plug-in hybrid system consisting of a 1.5T engine and a single/three-gear DHT. And there are many bright spots in the safety part of the new car.

Looking at the design first, the front face of Chery Fengyun T9 is quite new energy-oriented, and the huge grille and body are treated in the same color, so it seems that the front face has a strong sense of unity. Of course, the outlines of these air inlets still outline Chery’s family style. However, it is a pity that the light strip is not integrated into the grille, so it will not shine at night. In terms of headlight configuration, the new car comes standard with LED headlights with automatic headlights.

The side shape is very simple, a medium-sized car should have a steady design, but it also uses the popular hidden door handle. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4820/1930/1699mm and the wheelbase is 2820mm respectively. The rear of the car is also a penetrating light group, and the whole tail is very thick.

As for the interior, Chery Fengyun T9 takes the horizontal extension as the overall design concept, and the instrument panel has rich design layers, and also integrates entertainment functions into the 15.6-inch central control panel. Of course, common functions such as driving mode switching, air conditioning and power mode are placed on the central control armrest box in the form of physical buttons.

The new car is equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip and 5G network, and there are 14 Sony stereos and 256-color ambient lights in the high-profile models. It is also equipped with 50W mobile phone wireless fast charging, and there is an air outlet under the charging panel for cooling the mobile phone.

The seven-seat version can be said to be fully equipped, and the front seats have 10-point massage, ventilation and heating. The queen’s co-pilot lies flat with one button, and the maximum opening angle of the seat cushion leg rest reaches 128 degrees, and the maximum opening angle of the seat cushion backrest reaches 125 degrees.

(Chery’s mainstream cars will undergo rigorous safety tests)

Of course, the biggest highlight of the new car is safety. The high-strength steel in white body accounts for 85%, and the ultra-high-strength steel accounts for 21%. There is also an aluminum alloy anti-collision beam at the front of the car+the pedestrian below is prevented from being involved in the anti-collision beam.

(Rolling and falling test vehicle)

The whole vehicle comes standard with 7 airbags, including the head air curtain running through the front and rear rows (2060mm). Previously, the new car completed the first domestic challenge of falling after a side impact, that is, after being hit by a 4.5-ton truck, it immediately fell into a pit with a vertical height of 8 meters. The high-voltage electricity of the test vehicle was automatically disconnected, the battery pack was not displaced, smoked or caught fire, the oil circuit was not leaked, the airbag of the whole car was normally opened (and the pressure was maintained for 6 seconds), the door was normally opened, and the 24-hour rescue phone in the car was automatically dialed. In terms of safety, Chery Fengyun T9 really made great efforts.

In terms of power, Chery Fengyun T9 is equipped with Kunpeng super hybrid C-DM system, and the maximum power/torque of the engine is 115kW/220Nm. The thermal efficiency reaches 44.5%. Short battery life (120km) motor power/torque: 150kW/310Nm. The long-life version (200km) is equipped with a three-speed hybrid gearbox, and the motor power reaches 160kW. The short battery life version of the system has a comprehensive power of 265kW and a torque of 530Nm, which is equivalent to that of a V6 fuel vehicle. The new car supports 41kW fast charge, which can be charged from 30% to 80% in 20 minutes. Full battery life can reach 1800+km, and the fuel consumption per 100 kilometers under comprehensive working conditions is about 4L.

The scale of domestic hybrid market is growing. According to a data from China Automotive Research Institute, the sales volume of electric vehicles in China in Q1 this year was 1.305 million units, up 13.3% year-on-year, while the sales volume of hybrid vehicles was 784,000 units, up 81.2% year-on-year. The momentum of hybrid vehicles is stronger than that of pure electricity. You can use oil and electricity, you don’t need to change your car habits, just like an oil car. Compared with pure electricity, plug-in is really more suitable for domestic consumers, especially those who are only allowed to have one car at home.

In addition, with the further exploration of battery cost, there are more and more plug-in hybrid vehicles with long pure battery life on the market. Last year, the loading capacity of power batteries for plug-in passenger cars increased by 109.8% year-on-year. Pure battery life has also increased from the general 50km two years ago to more than 100 or even 200km this year.

Looking back at today’s protagonist, Chery Fengyun T9, the starting price of less than 130,000 can already give you a long battery life of 120km, and there are so many scientific and technological equipment. The most critical thing is the safety dimension, the body-in-white with good materials, seven airbags, etc. As a just-needed SUV, I personally think that T9 is quite attractive, but I just don’t know how to drive it.
