Can BYD’s technical blessing, medium and large MPV and Tengshi D9 impress consumers?
Recently, Tengshi Automobile officially announced that its MPV model Tengshi D9 will be launched with pure electric version and DM-i hybrid version, which will be officially launched in the middle of this month. There are four-wheel drive options, and the pre-sale price of the new car is 33.50-44.50 million. At the same time, the new car provides a founding model with a pre-sale of 660,000, limited to 99 vehicles.
In terms of appearance, the biggest difference between the hybrid version and the pure electric version lies in the large mouth grille on the front face. The inside of the grille of the pure electric version is closed and decorated with straight waterfall vertical decorative strips; The interior of the front grille of the hybrid version is decorated with a dense lattice structure. The headlights on both sides are sharp and visually give people an impact.
On the side of the car body, the design of the roof is relatively straight, which ensures the head space of the passengers in the car to a great extent. The D-pillar is decorated with a large area of chrome-plated decorative board, which enhances the exquisite feeling of the whole side. The design of the electric side sliding door enhances the grade feeling of the whole new car, and it will not fall as a commercial reception.
The shape design of the tail is simple, and the spoiler with small size at the top is exquisite. The interior of the penetrating taillight group is blackened, which effectively stretches the transverse width of the whole tail, and the surrounding part is decorated with more bright chrome-plated strips, which makes the tail feel luxurious.
In terms of interior, the interior layout design of the new car is also relatively simple but not scientific. The center console covered with matte trim adds a little luxury to the car, with a 10.25-inch full LCD instrument and a 15.6-inch suspended central control panel, coupled with a double-width flat-bottomed steering wheel and an electronic gear handle. The seat adopts a 7-seat layout of 2+2+3, and the second row adopts independent seats, which support 1600mm forward and backward sliding, and the comfort of the seat is relatively good.
In terms of configuration, the new car comes standard with parallel assistance, lane departure warning, lane keeping assistance, active braking, full-speed adaptive cruise, front and rear parking radar, panoramic image, automatic parking, uphill assistance, steep slope descent, suspension soft and hard adjustment, electric trunk, electric side sliding door, keyless entry, one-button start, wireless charging of front and rear mobile phones, electric adjustment of front seats, heating/ventilation/massage of rear seats and automatic LED.
In terms of power, the hybrid version is equipped with a hybrid system consisting of a 1.5T engine and an electric motor, in which the maximum horsepower of the engine is 139Ps and the maximum torque is 231N m. The longest comprehensive battery life of the hybrid model can reach 1040km, the maximum battery life of the pure electric vehicle is 190km, and the fuel consumption per 100km is as low as 6.2L.. Its pure electric model can last up to 600 kilometers. The chassis adopts front McPherson+rear multi-link independent suspension structure, and the whole system comes standard with suspension soft and hard adjustment function.
Generally speaking, two months after Tencent D9 opened the reservation, the order volume exceeded 30,000 vehicles. Coupled with the blessing of BYD technology, the luxury MPV as a self-owned brand has different repercussions in the new energy market. I believe everyone has great expectations for this new car.
