Chery was not far behind after seeing the Galaxy launched by Geely and the Qiyuan launched by Changan, and launched a new new energy product series - "Fengyun". Among them, the first model Fengyun A8 has been launched, and the upcoming debut will be Fengyun T6. As the first plug-in hybrid car in China, the advent of "Fengyun" will undoubtedly allow its own brand of pure electric vehicles to occupy a place in the future market. The new car, which can be considered an electronic hybrid version of the Chery Exploration 06, is expected to officially hit the market on February 29 with sales in the range of 120,000 to 150,000 yuan, and apparently, its competitors have turned their attention to the BYD Song Pro DM-i. Recently, some netizens have captured the real vehicle of Fengyun T6**, next, let's dive into its details.
Judging from the models shown at the previous auto show, the front face design of Fengyun T6 will be square and full of closed type, and it will also be equipped with a new logo of the Fengyun series. As a model positioned in the commercial vehicle market, it is very different from other domestic brand models in terms of styling, so we can see that many details will be deliberately handled. Despite this, the rectangular headlight clusters on both sides can still see the shadow of Chery Explore 06, and through an LED light strip running through it, creating a strong scientific and technological atmosphere. At the same time, a black decorative strip is added to the taillights to enhance the overall effect, and its styling design is the same as that of the headlights, which is a classic "double ring" structure. Split headlights are also not absent, but the high and low beam clusters of the Fengyun T6 will be covered in blacked-out trim panels, and arranged decorative elements will be added to enhance its refinement. In addition, it will be equipped with a large-sized trapezoidal lower grille.
The side design of the vehicle maintains a high degree of consistency with the Chery Exploration 06, and its boxy shape complements the stiff waistline and prominent wheel arches, giving the overall impression of being very muscular and powerful. The styling emphasizes more lines and textures, especially the streamlined design of the front bumper, which makes it more modern. The downward pressure of the floating roof, combined with the concealed door handles and the newly designed two-tone semi-closed petal wheels, successfully balances sporty style and stylish elements. The interior is dominated by black, with silver and beige combinations, and a red button on the door. In addition, the Fengyun T6 will also add a unique logo to its front fenders, while the decorative details of the side skirts will also be different. The model adopts a streamlined design style, with smooth and natural lines, and the overall shape is round and full. The dimensions of the body are 4540 1865 1670mm, while its wheelbase reaches 2672mm.
In the design of the rear section, the design concept of Chery Discovery 06 has been well continued, it is equipped with a dot-matrix continuous tail light cluster, and the English "Chery" logo is embedded in it. A large area of black treatment is applied to the front grille and front bumper. However, the Fengyun T6 differs from the Exploration 06's hardcore rear surround by a fuller, blacked-out design, silver guard trim and diffuser design, combined with the air duct shape on both sides and a large rear spoiler to further enhance its sporty look.
The interior decoration of the Chery Exploration 06 obviously follows its unique design concept, and the straight design of the center console is equipped with a vertical large central control screen and a rectangular full LCD instrument cluster, which injects a strong technological atmosphere into it, and it is expected that the Qualcomm 8155 chip will not be absent. The unique feature of the Fengyun T6 is that it will use a pocket shift mechanism, so its sub-instrument panel will have a new design with a wireless charging panel for mobile phones, dual cup holders, and a row of physical buttons. At the same time, a rotatable adjustable air outlet hole is added to the air outlet of the air conditioner, so that it can adjust the wind speed and volume according to the user's needs to ensure a comfortable driving experience. In addition, the interior of the car has been replaced with marble trim panels, while the interior door panels have been redesigned and paddle window buttons have been introduced.
In terms of power configuration, Fengyun T6 will be equipped with 1A 5-ton plug-in hybrid system. Among them, its engine has a maximum power of 115kW, which is the same as the Fengyun A8. It is also expected to use a 150kW drive motor mated to a single-speed DHT transmission. In addition, as a pure electric model, in addition to the power battery, you can also choose auxiliary equipment such as electric air conditioners and charging piles. This battery is a lithium iron phosphate battery pack under the BYD Fodi brand, and its capacity reaches 18316kWh, pure electric range of 93km, fuel consumption when power loss is 49L 100km, while the combined fuel consumption is 127l/100km。However, we still have to wait for further official announcements about the new car, and we will continue to keep an eye on it.
According to recently announced plans, by 2024, Fengyun Sequence plans to launch five all-new models. Among them, in the next three years, the Fengyun series models will be rolled off the assembly line one after another. With the exception of the Fengyun A8 and T6, the Fengyun A8 Pro is expected to be officially launched to the market on March 30; It is planned to launch the Fengyun T9 on April 30, and its pricing range is between 150,000 and 170,000 yuan; The expected launch date of Fengyun T10 is May 15, and its pricing range is between 180,000 and 250,000 yuan; The expected launch date of Fengyun T8 is August 30, and the pricing range is between 130,000 and 160,000 yuan. In addition, Fengyun A8 plans to make a fund adjustment on October 30. As a model positioned in the high-end business market, what kind of product image is it? What is your view on this?
