Both the eπ007 and eπ008 have seen strong market performance. From March 14 to July 31, Dongfeng eπ sold over 23,000 vehicles in total, significantly boosting brand recognition and product acceptance.

The eπ007 REEV retains its appealing design, smart features, exhilarating driving experience, and robust safety. It is equipped with the Mach Super Range Extending Technology, achieving a combined fuel consumption of just 0.53L/100km under the CLTC cycle and a battery-powered range of 200km, ideal for daily commute. Its Mach Power 1.5L high-efficiency engine boasts a thermal efficiency of 43.5%, with a fuel-electric conversion efficiency of 3.55kWh/L. Even in a low battery state, the vehicle consumes just 4.2L/100km, with a total range of 1,200km, making long-distance travel stress-free.

The eπ007 REEV offers a near-silent driving experience comparable to all-electric vehicles. During full-throttle acceleration with a low battery, noise increase is less than 3 decibels, while idle generation noise is as low as 38 decibels. When the range extender activates, the noise increment is less than 1 decibel, ensuring seamless integration.
