Although Chery began to lay out the new energy vehicle market very early, it is undeniable that Chery's influence and presence in the new energy market are indeed inferior to Geely, Changan and other car companies. In the past year, although we have been trying hard, we have not been able to create a popular model. Therefore, 2024 is a very important year for Chery, just after the New Year, it launched the Chery Fengyun A8, a plug-in hybrid sedan, which is also one of the brand's important product layouts in the plug-in hybrid market.
Chery Fengyun A8 seems to be a new model, but in fact, it is inextricably linked with its own brothers, and the moment you see it, you will naturally have a sense of familiarity. With the blessing of the new family design language, the Chery Fengyun A8 is mainly adjusted for the front shape. The large blacked-out front grille occupies the visual center of the front of the car, and the surface is integrated into the dot matrix design, which belongs to the stylish and generous category. The latest logo is inlaid at the top of the grille, and the blackened trim is connected to the headlight clusters on both sides after crossing the logo, and the headlights are simple and capable, giving the front of the car a certain sense of futurism when lit.
The side of the car is what a standard sedan should look like, with a straight double waistline running through the body, and the upper waistline naturally extends to the rear, blending in with the "ducktail". The continuous taillights are one of the few design highlights at the rear, and the lamp cavity has been blackened and integrated into the bifurcation design, which does not look too dull. Compared with many plug-in hybrid models on the market, the appearance of Chery Fengyun A8 is not a category of personality and fashion, it can only be said to be decent, and more consideration is the public aesthetics, which is also Chery's consistent style.
Similarly, Chery Fengyun A8 carries this feeling to the interior of the car, and the interior with dark black tones is slightly dull, but fortunately, the materials and workmanship are more exquisite, so there will be no sense of cheapness. The dual screen is the center of the front row, and all functions in the car are basically integrated into the central control screen, and the display clarity and control sensitivity are at the mainstream level on the market. Considering the practicality, a row of touch buttons is retained at the bottom of the screen to control the air conditioning system, and the sense of science and technology is there, but it is easy to touch it by mistake during the actual driving process.
The layout of the shift area is very conventional, the wide gear is full of grasp, and there is basically no learning cost. From many details of the design, you can feel the tradition in the bones of Chery Fengyun A8, although the plug-in hybrid power has changed, but it is still not completely new. It may not be so appealing to young people who are looking for a fashionable personality. The performance of the driving space in the car is in line with the performance of this level of model, and there is a certain bulge in the middle of the rear platform, if you want to travel for a long time, it is recommended that you sit two passengers in the back.
The Chery Fengyun A8 is equipped with 1The plug-in hybrid power composed of a 5-liter engine and an electric motor is a system that takes into account both power output and fuel economy. The maximum power is 265kw, and the official acceleration of 100 kilometers is 76S, the power output is enough to cope with daily commuting, and the pure electric range is 106km under WLTC working conditions. The most surprising thing is 1The thermal efficiency of the 5t engine reached 445%, as we all know, Chery still has its own set of engines, because of the blessing of the electric motor, the power response is more sensitive than that of fuel vehicles, and the car is equipped with three driving modes, especially in sports mode, and even gives people a very channeling feeling. The suspension adjustment belongs to the stiff style, and it is not blindly emphasizing comfort, and this tuning style is good and bad. In the process of fast driving, it can maintain a very good body attitude, and the speed is less than 40 kilometers per hour, the vehicle is basically in pure electric mode, and the faster the vehicle will enter the parallel hybrid mode.
The official guide price of Chery Fengyun A8 is at 1199-14.Between 990,000 yuan, it belongs to a mainstream price range of models in the same class. On the whole, Chery Fengyun A8 is indeed a plug-in hybrid model with balanced product power, and at present, there are no obvious shortcomings, but there are no outstanding highlights. In terms of quality, everyone is trustworthy, after all, Chery, as an independent first-line car manufacturer, can still guarantee this. If the commuting distance is not long, the pure electric range is enough to cope with daily travel, even in the feeding state can also have good fuel economy, in addition to the configuration space is enough, if these can meet your car needs, there is no problem in choosing Chery Fengyun A8.
