as the third quarter of this year is coming to an end, various car companies are actively "preparing" for the final sprint in the fourth quarter, so there are also many new cars launched this week. among them, in the household new energy suv market segment, various new cars are also particularly worthy of attention: byd's two cars are on the market, song pro dm-i and hiace 05 dm-i; dongfeng fengshen l7 launches a pure electric version with a starting price of less than 110,000 yuan; tiggo 9 c-dm is coming, adding new energy market layout. without further ado, let me take a closer look at these new cars.

new song pro dm-i: technology improved

as byd's flagship model in the suv market, the sales and reputation of the song family are self-evident. this time, byd also updated the song pro dm-i. in terms of product strength, the new song pro dm-i adopts the latest dragon-face aesthetic design, with a double-layer front grille shape, a more slender headlight shape, and a byd letter logo on the rear of the car. although the design style of the whole vehicle has not changed much, the overall appearance is more concise and refined. in terms of body size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4735/1860/1710 mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2712 mm.

in terms of configuration, the new song pro dm-i has a new amber brown interior color, 50w mobile phone wireless fast charging, 3d panoramic transparent imaging, l2 dipilot intelligent driving assistance system, etc. in terms of power, the new car is equipped with byd's latest dm5.0 plug-in hybrid technology, which is composed of a 1.5-liter naturally aspirated engine and an electric motor. the pure electric range is available in 75 kilometers and 115 kilometers, and the comprehensive range can reach 1,400 kilometers.

in terms of price, the new song pro dm-i has launched 4 models with a price range of 112,800-142,800 yuan, and the starting price is 3,000 yuan more expensive than the old model. however, judging from the upgraded configuration, the new car still has a certain cost-effectiveness, and coupled with the market appeal of the song family, it will still be the main model in the future.

sea lion 05 dm-i: more personalized options

as the brother model of the new song pro dm-i, the sea lion 05 dm-i was also launched, with four models, priced from 112,800 to 142,800 yuan, which is consistent with the new song pro dm-i. in terms of core product strength, the sea lion 05 dm-i is also equipped with dm5.0 plug-in hybrid technology, with two models available, 75km and 115km of pure electric range.

in terms of configuration, the sea lion 05 dm-i also has 50w mobile phone wireless charging, nfc car key, 15.6-inch rotatable central control screen, etc. as for the body size, the new car has a length, width and height of 4710/1880/1720 mm and a wheelbase of 2712 mm, which is still very close to the new song pro dm-i.

but even though they are brothers, the sea lion 05 dm-i is completely different from the new song pro dm-i in design. as an ocean network model, the sea lion 05 dm-i adopts the "ocean aesthetics" design, with a large-sized borderless horizontal grille on the front, paired with a wide through-type headlight group and a letter logo. this front face is obviously more majestic than the new song pro dm-i.

including the interior, the sea lion 05 dm-i also uses a lot of wave-like curve elements, and is matched with a round button area and a small crystal electronic gear lever, which makes its exquisiteness more prominent. so judging from the interior and exterior design alone, the sea lion 05 dm-i will be more popular with young consumers.

fengshen l7 pure electric version: starting at less than 110,000 yuan

after the successful launch of the plug-in hybrid model, dongfeng fengshen l7 launched the pure electric version this week. although the power form is different, the appearance design of the fengshen l7 pure electric version is still highly consistent with the plug-in hybrid version. it also adopts a very simple closed front face and sharp headlight group design, a floating roof shape on the side, and a small fastback and through-type taillights at the rear. in terms of body size, the new car is 4670/1900/1625 mm in length, width and height respectively, and the wheelbase is 2775 mm.

of course, the focus of the fengshen l7 pure electric version is still on the price. this time, the fengshen l7 pure electric version launched two models, with motor power of 120 kw and 160 kw respectively, and a range of 518 kilometers. although the new car is not outstanding in terms of parameters, the prices of the two models are 109,900 yuan and 139,900 yuan. compared with the new song pro dm-i, which has just been launched, its starting price has exceeded 110,000 yuan. so it is less than 110,000 yuan to buy a compact suv with a range of more than 500 kilometers. the fengshen l7 pure electric version is really cost-effective.

tiggo 9 c-dm: a more advanced choice

as the flagship suv of chery tiggo family, this week tiggo 9 will launch the 2025 model and tiggo 9 c-dm equipped with plug-in hybrid system. although it is a new energy model, the overall design of tiggo 9 c-dm is still basically the same as that of the fuel version, with a large vertical waterfall grille and a large chrome-plated front surround. the overall flagship temperament is still very online. in terms of body size, the new car has a length, width and height of 4820/1930/1712 mm respectively, and a wheelbase of 2820 mm, which is basically the same as the fuel version.

in terms of plug-in hybrid power, the tiggo 9 c-dm is equipped with a plug-in hybrid system consisting of a 1.5t engine + motor + three-speed dht. the system has a maximum combined power of 280 kilowatts, a pure electric range of up to 106 kilometers, and a wltc comprehensive range of more than 1,400 kilometers. in terms of price, the current pre-sale price of the tiggo 9 c-dm starts at 169,900 yuan, and i believe the official price in the future will give us more surprises.

in the view of cheyiquan: judging from the new energy family suvs launched this week, the market's involution continues, with the fengshen l7 pure electric version being the most representative. therefore, for consumers who plan to buy a new energy family suv at the end of this year, they must clarify their actual needs among the many models, and do not rush to buy, but pay more attention to the prices of various models. i believe that at the end of the fourth quarter, various models will have certain discounts at the terminal, and it will be more appropriate to buy a car at that time.
