Dongfeng Forthing Lingzhi PLUS

For the Dongfeng Forthing Lingzhi PLUS, considering its price, noise insulation, abnormal sounds, and configurations are acceptable (can be upgraded with more budget). It used to stall easily when starting, but the latest travel version with adjusted gear ratios has improved. Due to its weight, coasting in neutral is smooth and fuel-efficient. The spacious interior makes rides comfortable, ideal for long road trips, and has potential for conversion into a camper van.

The Dongfeng Forthing Lingzhi PLUS offers the largest space in its price range with highly flexible seats, suitable for both cargo and passengers, and comes with practical configurations without fancy features. However, it has issues like frequent stalling at起步, insufficient power for climbing and overtaking, a top speed of 135 km/h, transmission noise, clutch burnout during climbing, requires fully synthetic oil for 5,000-km maintenance, can't get out of underground garages, has small trunk space, and the manufacturer doesn't solve problems.

Comfort: The seats of my Dongfeng Forthing Lingzhi PLUS are very comfortable, with moderate hardness, and even after sitting for a long time, I don't feel tired, and all seats are like this, not just the driver's seat. The interior layout is spacious, so everyone can sit comfortably without feeling cramped for legroom, even with 9 seats.

Disadvantages: The configuration is really not high. If you only want a reversing image, it's unnecessary to choose a higher configuration model. I added a reversing image and a dashcam after buying it, costing less than 1,000 yuan in total.

Summary: I bought this car as a utility vehicle. The space is excellent, suitable for both company shuttles and family use. The large space is all advantages. Even with drawbacks, considering the price and space, they are forgivable. If your unit or family needs an NPV, this is a good choice.
