A “Rough” Motorcoach is coming, Less than RMB 250,000

Shanghai, April 10th, ZXZC - In the public's mind,the recreational vehicle is a luxurious stuff that often appears in the American movies. The houses are unaffoardable for many people as the house price is skyrocketing, to buy a “car” with a “house”is even more difficult. An RV could cost you 300 thousand, 1million,3 million or even 5 million. Well, we are to shock you with a recreational vehicle charges less than 250 thousand--the self-propelled motorhome based on a short-wheelbase Dongfeng Yufeng touring car.

The motorhome is remolded by an automaker called Dexing Automotive rather than Dongfeng motors,a piece out of the the two company’s cooperation. The car’s exterior inherits the most features from its prototype with little changes in the appearances, so it’s hard to tell that the stuff is a motorhome from its look. The overall size of the recreational car is 5000*2036*2375mm with a wheelbase of 3100mm,quite mini in its motorcoach brothers.The roof is flat and straight without an “protrude” on the top,indicating a loss in the space. The U-shape front face looks good and lively. The employment of the Xenon/halogen headlights ensures the safety when driving in the dark. There is no bike rack nor ladder at the back.The design language is quite simple and concise.

Opening the backdoor of the motorhome, we could see a separate double bed and boxes, storing a switch box on the right and a gas tank on the left. The driving cabin employs the 1+2 layout that could accommodate three passengers. The motorhome gets a 2.5T diesel engine with a output of 100kw and torque of 310Nm paired with an AMT.

Inside, the leg space is comparably not enough, it’s difficult for two people to move freely. The interior also features a fold-able desk, console,in-car TV , toilet, kitchen, fridge, shower and other basic equipment. However, the motorhome is more like a roughcast house that it lacks the air condition,gas stove and so on.The base price of the vehicle is only 238 thousand. All in all, it’s worthy to buy a “running house” with such a low price.
