Dongfeng Forthing Fengxing Yate

In May this year, I decided to replace my 8-year-old car with limited space, and with the national car purchase incentives, I needed a 7-seater for my family with two kids. Initially interested in BYD Song PLUS DM-i, I later found Dongfeng Forthing Fengxing Yacht at a car show. My wife and I liked it, as it was several thousand yuan cheaper with a shorter delivery time. I bought the mid-top "Zhulang" version with a 6,000 yuan discount during the pre-sale period. After over a month of use, the Dongfeng Forthing Fengxing Yacht offers good value with rich configurations for its price. The power is acceptable, handling fully-loaded rides easily. Fuel consumption is slightly higher than my old car, maybe due to the break-in period. Exterior-wise, the front grille was initially夸张 but grew on me, with nice body lines and rear design. Space is good, though the trunk is a bit small, likely to prioritize seating. Overall, I'm satisfied and hope it performs well in the future.

I am not entirely satisfied with the Dongfeng Forthing Fengxing Yacht as its chassis is a bit low and may hit the ground on rough roads. Previously driving an SUV, I was attracted by its appearance, especially the front breathing lights, when I saw it in a 4S store after its launch in May or June. As a teacher commuting几十 kilometers daily and sometimes giving colleagues or students rides, the 7-seater with a not cramped third row meets my needs. Driving long distances in summer is less tiring than with the SUV. The seats have electric adjustment with memory, ventilation and heating functions, and the first and second rows can be folded into a "yacht lie" for rest during long trips. The fuel consumption is about 8.5 for city commuting with many traffic lights and around 7 on highways. It can still run 170 kilometers after the fuel light comes on. I got lifetime free maintenance with purchase, so I only need to pay for fuel and insurance. The sales consultant provided good service. The Zhulang version offers good value with essential features like USB ports and air vents for each row, 360-degree reversing image assist, electric感应 tailgate, main brake, airbags, and adaptive cruise control, suitable for both experienced and new drivers.

I found the Dongfeng Forthing Fengxing Yacht quite popular online and like its stylish, non-business-like appearance which suits my home use. The light green exterior and light interior look high-end and fresh. I'm most satisfied with the electric second-row seats that can be并拢, the convenient foldable small table, and the easy-to-fold third row. The second row is the most comfortable with adjustable heating and ventilation, and a 65-degree recline for napping. Power is sufficient with a light steering wheel and油门. However, the trunk is insufficient when carrying 6-7 people, needing the third row folded for larger items. Fuel consumption was around 6.9 initially but now averages 7.7 after highway driving.
