‘Fastback coupe’ launched in two different versions.
\nThird model in the Dongfeng portfolio for New Zealand.
\n400kW and 0-100km\/h in 3.9 seconds from $60k Performance model.<\/p>\n

Swift performance and a sharp price characterise the Dongfeng 007, as the company’s New Zealand importer<\/a> Armstrong’s Distribution reveals final pricing and specification.<\/p>\n

\"Dongfeng
\nCompany claims this is the most aero EV sedan you can buy.<\/p>\n

A rival for the BYD Seal<\/a> and Tesla Model 3<\/a>, the pure-electric 007 starts at $54,900 for the 200kW Long Range rear-drive model, but for another $5k you can step up to the Performance AWD at $59,990, which doubles the power to 400kW – and provides claimed 0-100km\/h performance of 3.9 seconds.<\/p>\n

The 007 is the largest model in the Dongfeng lineup. Both versions have a 70kWh battery providing range of 520km for the RWD and 389km for the AWD (both WLTP).<\/p>\n

Armstrong’s says the fastback design “delivers the efficiency of a sedan with the practicality of a hatch – without the aerodynamic penalties of an SUV”. It also claims the 0.209 drag coefficient makes it the most aerodynamically efficient EV sedan available in NZ.<\/p>\n

\"Dongfeng
\nFast chip should make infotainment a tasty experience.<\/p>\n

Inside, the 15.6-inch digital interface is powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 computing chip.<\/p>\n

Both models feature a 1.84 square-metre Double Coated Panoramic Glass roof, frameless doors, 19-inch alloy wheels, adjustable height electric tailgate, “soft touch” leather upholstery, power front seats with ventilation, Apple CarPlay and wireless mobile phone charging. Android Auto is listed as an option.<\/p>\n

The 19-speaker Wanos “theatre-grade” panoramic sound system includes integrated headrest speakers and ambient lighting synchronisation.<\/p>\n

A different interior trim is reserved for each model: Grey\/Black for the Long Range and Ivory\/Grey for the Performance.<\/p>\n

\nOrchid Purple exclusive to the 400kW Performance, so people know not to race you at the lights.<\/p>\n
