Test drive of medium-sized plug-in SUV from 129,900 (T9)

　　(|) Based on the Mars super hybrid platform, this real shot model uses a 1-speed DHT gearbox with a comprehensive maximum power of 360Ps. The staff said that the model with a comprehensive maximum power of 380Ps and a 3-speed DHT gearbox will be launched in August.

　　In the actual experience, the dynamic response of Fengyun T9 accelerator pedal in the initial stage is faster, but it doesn’t give people the feeling of "channeling", which is the gospel of organ foot. It will take about 1 second for the engine to intervene after the accelerator is stepped on the middle and rear section. The power output of medium and high speed is slightly weakened. Judging from the comprehensive power of 360Ps, such power performance is not excellent, but it basically meets this level. In daily driving, except when the battery power is low, the system will take the motor as the main power output most of the time, even at high speed. The staff said that equipped with a 1.5T engine+a single front motor matching a single-gear DHT powertrain, CLTC’s comprehensive cruising range reached 1,400 kilometers.

　　　 Perhaps because it is not a production model, the suspension performance of Fengyun T9 still has some room for improvement. Suspension adjustment presents the performance of hard front section and soft rear section, and the filtering of tiny vibration on the road surface is not complete, and the back seat feels more tiny vibration when sitting in the back row because of the thin cushion. The support of the suspension to the vehicle is average when it encounters fast line merging or cornering. When the front suspension encounters large vibration road conditions such as speed bumps, there will be slight lateral vibration.

　　The sound insulation and quietness of Fengyun T9 is at a good level in the same price model. When the engine is started with low battery or rapid acceleration, the accelerator and brake pedal will vibrate slightly but not obviously. In addition, the vehicle also performs well in controlling noise and vibration when the engine is working.

　　In daily driving, Fengyun T9 is mainly driven by motor. The model of this experience is a single-gear DHT gearbox, and the adjustment of accelerator pedal is not as sensitive as that of ordinary electric vehicles, and the ride comfort in daily driving is basically satisfactory. However, the pedal will vibrate slightly after the engine is started.

Summary:

　　At present, the test drive car is still in the trial installation state. From the current performance, the combination of 1.5T engine and front single motor is the biggest highlight of the whole car, and its power performance belongs to the mainstream level, and the comprehensive cruising range of CLTC has reached 1400km. Compared with Tiggo 9, Deep Blue S7 and Xingyue L, Fengyun T9 does not show obvious advantages.　　　

　　The starting price of Fengyun T9 is 129,900 yuan, and the order for crowdfunding activities in 9.9 yuan has exceeded 40,000. Among the four configurations launched this time, the 5-seat comfort type with a price of 142,900 yuan is relatively cost-effective, with comfort configurations including induction tailgate, L2-class assisted driving, front seat heating/ventilation and panoramic image with transparent chassis function.

　　In 2001, Chery Fengyun series first appeared on the historical stage, and only one model won nearly 78,000 sales in 2001-2002. In 2023, it has been more than 20 years since Fengyun series debuted. Chery announced that Fengyun series will launch a total of 11 models within two years. At this point, there are countless models of our own brands including Chery, Jetway and Starway at the same price. However, in order to gain market recognition, it is more important to create unique selling points and differentiated advantages besides "automobile naval warfare" and "price war".
