Whether it's fuel cars or electric cars, the price range of 100,000 yuan is the red ocean within the red ocean. When most car manufacturers are using configuration stacking to improve cost-performance ratio, Fengyun T7 brings something different. This is not just a price lower than the pre-sale price, but rather that it uses a different track to open a new chapter.

On August 26, Fengyun T7 was launched in Beijing. Compared to the previous pre-sale starting price of 109,900 yuan, it was directly reduced by 12,000 yuan. Thus, the low-spec version directly entered the range within 100,000 yuan, while the top-spec version was set at 118,900 yuan. This way, the threshold for users to get started became lower.

For electric cars, the biggest cost is the battery. In the past, car manufacturers usually used battery capacity to distinguish high, medium, and low-spec versions. High-spec batteries have larger capacity to satisfy power users. Low-spec batteries have smaller capacity to satisfy city commuting. But the entire Fengyun T7 series has 600 kilometers of range, and they all use the same motor. The reason Fengyun does this is actually to better adapt to the product positioning.

The greater your configuration changes, the more certifications are needed. But if you don't need to make so many plans for core components, you will reduce costs due to scale advantages.

Therefore, this model defined as a global car from the beginning needs to use the simplest logic to meet the standards of laws and regulations in different countries and the differences between various standards. For example, at the safety level, most domestic models only need to meet the C-NCAP crash standard. Fengyun T7 can meet the E-NCAP 2026 5-star standard, ASIL-D, and other standards that models much higher than its selling price usually do. To meet vehicle compliance requirements, 80% high-strength steel, 9 airbags, battery pack 31-layer protection, etc., became the mandatory answers for this model. This is the difference between Fengyun T7 and most domestic models.

Additionally, at the previous Chengdu Auto Show, we also saw Fengyun T7 and its overseas model version—Lepas L6. This model has already been launched in Thailand and South Africa before the domestic version. Next, this model will also be sold in places including the EU, Australia/New Zealand, UK, etc. To achieve the goal, Fengyun T7 has completed various tests such as Middle East high temperature, Arctic extreme cold, and plateau strong UV radiation, and completed tests and optimizations for road conditions in various countries. The meaning of being Born Global was materialized in completely different environments.

Of course, if the price is different, the configuration will definitely be different. Fengyun T7 uses the same underlying foundation in core aspects such as power and safety, just distinguishing prices based on different configurations. So the selling point of Fengyun T7 was never basic home appliance features, but rather the hardcore global quality. In this way, the pricing logic of the 100,000-level pure electric SUV is rewritten at this moment.

The domestic new energy vehicle market is becoming increasingly cutthroat. Many brands pursue rapid launches, stacking specs and gimmicks, eager to boost sales and traffic in the short term. Quick-bake manufacturing has almost become the norm.

Released on August 26 in Beijing, the Chery Fengyun T7 took a completely different path and can be called one of the paradigms of Chery's long-term car manufacturing philosophy.

Long-termism in vehicle manufacturing does not mean slowing down R&D speed, but rather not being swayed by short-term traffic, ensuring every step is done solidly. It means putting effort into areas that users cannot see but care about most during long-term usage.

The Fengyun T7 is a global pure electric compact SUV in the 100,000 yuan price bracket. Within the Chery model lineup, it is neither a blockbuster model nor a priority model. However, Chery put considerable effort into the Fengyun T7.

The Fengyun T7 underwent 2 years of project initiation and 3 years of R&D, along with extremely strict tests. The entire vehicle completed over 1 million kilometers of durability testing and traveled to various extreme environments such as the high temperatures of the Middle East, high humidity of Southeast Asia, and high-cold regions for reliability verification.

For collision testing alone, tens of thousands of simulations were conducted, and hundreds of real vehicle crash tests were performed. In addition to the regulations-mandated frontal, side, and rear-end tests, the Fengyun T7 also underwent non-regulation mandated frontal pole, side pole, intrusion, and offset collisions. The original intention was safety for all occupants, ensuring protection against the one-in-a-million chance.

As a global vehicle, the Chery Fengyun T7 adopts a unique strategy. Models are launched overseas first to undergo real-world verification by users in markets like Thailand and South Africa. Only after verification is deemed mature is it officially launched for domestic users, avoiding simple export-only special versions. Simultaneously, from the outset of vehicle R&D, it benchmarks the stringent 2026 E-NCAP five-star safety standards, building a home electric vehicle using global standards.

The Fengyun T7 comes standard across the range with a 65.05kWh Lithium Iron Phosphate "Rhino" battery. CLTC range is 600km, with no range compromise between high and low trims. A 30% to 80% fast charge takes only 20 minutes.

The body adopts a nine-transverse, five-longitudinal cage structure, with 80% high-strength steel, paired with 9 airbags and a 6D "Chainmail" battery protection structure, prioritizing overall vehicle safety.

Relying on Chery's global R&D system, professional teams jointly tuned the chassis, balancing daily family comfort with high-speed driving stability.

Fengyun T7 2700mm wheelbase delivers exceptional interior space utilization, with flexible cabin space that is sufficient for daily commuting, long-distance road trips, or weekend camping.

The Fengyun T7 does not pile up flashy but empty configurations, directly addressing the core needs of ordinary families for long-term vehicle usage: safety, worry-free, and durability.

Chery has cultivated the automotive industry for nearly 30 years, accumulating over 20 million global users and building a complete R&D, verification, and manufacturing system. The Fengyun T7 is not merely a blockbuster model for short-term volume, but the result of Chery's long-term thinking on home electric vehicles.

Ultimately in vehicle manufacturing, it is never a competition of paper specifications, but whether the vehicle can withstand years of use and adapt to different road conditions. In a volatile market environment, focusing on crafting reliable products and persisting with long-term value is the answer Chery Fengyun T7 leaves to the market.

In a market impetuously chasing short-term gains, the Fengyun T7 confirms a simple truth. The ultimate competition in vehicle manufacturing is a contest of long-term strength. Polishing products to global standards with user long-term needs at the core, this accumulation and perseverance is the best interpretation of Chery's long-termism.

Recently, the Chery Fengyun T7 officially launched in the domestic market. The new car is positioned as a family compact pure electric SUV. Three trim levels were launched. The official guide price is 97,900-118,900 RMB, and the exclusive early exchange price is 94,900-115,900 RMB. Mass delivery work started simultaneously with the launch. As a core model in Chery New Energy's global layout, the Fengyun T7 injects new variables into the white-hot 100,000-level pure electric track with its overseas-first verification system and full-configuration product strength.

Against the backdrop of accelerated overseas expansion for domestic brand new energy vehicles, the Fengyun T7 has forged a differentiated product path. The new car adopts a model of global synchronous R&D, overseas precedence in landing, and domestic finale launch. Initially, it has completed deployment in overseas markets such as Thailand and South Africa, and will continue to expand into Southeast Asia, Europe, Oceania, and other overseas territories. Relying on Chery's global R&D and testing systems, the whole vehicle has undergone 6 million kilometers of strict testing in all scenarios, adapted to complex road conditions and extreme climates worldwide. Vehicle manufacturing and safety standards benchmark against international high-end regulations, possessing a mature global product heritage.

Product core highlights focus on the three-electric systems required by users. Currently, the 100,000-level pure EV market generally suffers from battery shrinkage and range downgrade in entry-level versions, leading to polarized user purchase experiences. The Fengyun T7 breaks industry conventions, standardizing a 65.05kWh large-capacity battery across the range, unifying 600km CLTC range, ensuring consistent range benefits regardless of trim level, fundamentally solving the core pain points of entry-level users.

Practical configurations fully align with home scenarios; a 30%-80% fast charge is completed within 20 minutes, significantly improving travel energy replenishment efficiency; a wide-temperature-range heat pump system effectively optimizes all-season range performance, reducing energy consumption losses in extreme weather. The high-efficiency electric drive system balances power and energy saving, with comprehensive efficiency exceeding 90.8%, balancing the economy of daily commuting with travel power needs.

In terms of safety and intelligence, the new car adheres to the bottom line of family vehicles. An 80% high-strength steel body frame is equipped with full-coverage airbag protection to build a solid vehicle safety barrier; battery multi-layer safety protection design improves vehicle fault tolerance. Smart cockpit and assisted driving systems support it, adapting to modern family diversified travel needs.

From an industry perspective, with the price war continuing to ferment, the market urgently needs high-quality products focusing on quality without gimmicks. The launch of the Fengyun T7 not only completes the Chery Fengyun New Energy family SUV matrix but also sets a new quality benchmark for the 100,000-level pure EV market with global quality, balanced product power, and equitable configurations. The subsequent market performance is worth continuous attention.

I've seen new car launches with celebrities singing and dancing, but hiring Wu Kequn to discuss 'Steady Happiness' is something I've never seen before.

The Fengyun T7 launch event didn't look like the traditional auto company big screen PPT plus leader narration, but more like a dialogue about 'slowing down'. This car spent nearly four years from 2022 pre-research to now.

In today's industry where it's as if three generations of new cars come out every year, this speed is indeed not fast. But a Chery person said something quite practical: 'Some links you haven't passed the test of time, it's truly not possible to be fast.'

Slow in what way? Slow because it wants to sell to over 130 countries globally. EU crash regulations, Middle East 50-plus degree high heat, Southeast Asia rainy season flooding, Northern Europe minus 40 degree extreme cold, all need adaptation. 81 durability cars, 1.45 million km actual test, 6 million km cumulative verification, covering over 95% of global road conditions.

Even more interesting is that it sold abroad before returning home -- South Africa and Thailand are already on sale, with Indonesia in August and the EU in September following suit. First let overseas buyers help test the ground, then hand a reliable car into your hands, such an experience is indeed quite special.

Back to the product itself, there are a few points of note. The entire series comes standard with 600km range, actual testing reaches 681km. Others exaggerate specs high, it reverse exaggerates specs low. Dual-source wide temperature heat pump plus high-voltage PTC, range increases 30% at minus 10 degrees, Northern users in winter won't be too anxious.

Rear row pure flat floor plus seats folded flat pure flat big bed mode, weekend camping and midday nap quite practical. 80% high-strength steel body, 9 airbags, 31 layers battery protection, IP68 waterproof national standard 96 times over,

Safety configurations also not cut. The smart cabin uses the 8775 chip plus Doubao large model, supports over 300 automatic parking modes and high-speed pilot assistance.

Finally the price, priority trade-in price ranges from 94,900 to 115,900. For just over 100,000 buy 600km range, 80% high-strength steel, 9 airbags, global quality pure electric SUV, truly dare not think two years ago.

At the launch event, Wu Kequn said: 'Steady happiness is not about what you own, but that you no longer worry about losing.' The feeling Fengyun T7 gives me is also the same -- its parameters aren't the most explosive, but driving it makes you feel grounded.

Go overseas first then return home, slow work makes good car. Fengyun T7, comes slow, but comes steady.

Recent discussions about the launch of Chery Fengyun T7 mostly revolve around two terms: price and range.

On August 26, Chery's global quality pure electric SUV officially launched, 3 versions, MSRP 97,900 - 118,900 RMB, early trade-in price 94,900 - 115,900 RMB; all trims CLTC range 600 km, all trims standard heat pump AC, 9 airbags, 8775 cockpit-driving integrated chip.

On the same day, musician Wu Kequn appeared at the press conference as a "Happiness Experience Officer", discussing "Steady Happiness" with Chery Executive Vice President Li Xueyong, launching the "Happiness Co-creation Plan" on-site.

From pre-heat to launch, the Fengyun T7 story flowed smoothly: global quality, six major redundancies, delivery upon launch. Everything seems to be heading towards the concept of "stability".

But looking at this car within the 100,000 RMB-level pure electric SUV category, the story might not be that simple.

An "Unconventional" Car

In today's industry, "Only speed prevails" is almost the default rule. Rapid project initiation, rapid launch, rapid iteration. Those who are slow will be eliminated.

Fengyun T7 focuses on the word "Slow".

Not slow by half a beat, but it truly invested time upfront: 3-year R&D cycle, relying on the global 1+7+N R&D system; developed according to the 2026 European E-NCAP five-star standard; whole vehicle durability validation 1.45 million km, real vehicles tested in 21 countries, 100+ extreme road conditions; invested 81 exclusive durability cars for simultaneous road testing; homologous overseas version Lepas L6 launched first in South Africa and Thailand, entering EU in September, entering Australia & New Zealand in October.

1.45 Million Km Durability Validation · 21-Country Real Vehicle Testing · 80% High-Strength Steel · All Trims 600km Range · 9 Airbags.

In other words, it is not "Made well in China then tested elsewhere", but refined from the start according to global regulations and global road conditions, accepting overseas market tests first, then selling back in China.

This strategy is indeed somewhat "Against the Tide" in today's Chinese car market. When others are competing on faster iteration cycles, Chery chose to complete the validation mileage first. Logically, it makes no sense, but it is betting on another matter: users will ultimately care about "Reliability", not just "How fast it comes".

Dislocation Competition in the Red Ocean

The 100,000 RMB-level pure electric SUV is the biggest baseline of the new energy car market, and also the fiercest battleground of price wars. This sub-segment has long had several "Industry Conventions": entry-level range shrinkage, safety configurations quietly cut, advanced intelligence requires upgrading to higher trims, chassis and battery validation cycles compressed. When consumers vote with their feet, they often have to choose between two, either accept shrinkage or pay extra.

Fengyun T7's reverse operation treats its "Six Major Redundancies" as basic items: Range Parity: All three versions are 600km, no lower trim shrinkage; Media tests achieved 681.6km, reverse false rating; 30% to 80% charging takes only 20 minutes.

Safety Redundancy: Car body 80% high-strength steel, 9 airbags (including 48L far-side airbags), battery pack 31-layer protection, waterproof IP68, side squeeze resistance reaches twice the national standard.

Validation Redundancy: 21 countries, 1.45 million km pre-run complete, closing issues like noise, faults, and environmental adaptability in the R&D stage.

Essentially, it wants to use "Global Standards" to fight "Domestic Cost-Performance", a dislocation competition - others compete on price, it competes on fundamentals.

But problems arise with it: Will domestic users pay for the three words "Global Car"?

From a product logic perspective, 21-country validation, E-NCAP five-star, are real existing barriers, especially in safety and durability dimensions, cannot be fabricated by PPT. But falling into real car buying scenarios, ordinary people's top three decisions are usually: Is price low enough, is range real, is space big, brand is secondary.

"Global Quality" is a hidden plus point, hard to perceive, harder to spread. It's not as easy to understand as "20,000 cheaper", someone needs to translate it into plain language for users. And Chery's consumer-side new energy brand mindshare still lags behind the top, the "Fengyun" series needs to build the perception "Global Car = Reliable", it still needs time and luck.

The Two Faces of Slow Work

"Slow work makes good cars", placed in an intense competition context, is a clear-headed move, and also an adventure. Its opportunity is clear: When the industry is all fighting for speed, T7 chose to downgrade high-end configurations to the 100,000 RMB level, 84% space utilization rate, 1955x1310mm pure flat bed, 450L expandable to 1550L trunk, 9-layer cloud-feel seats, Falcon 500 assisted driving (300+ all-scenario parking, highway pilot). These are hard metrics users can perceive by sitting in and driving around, easier to convert into orders than "21-country validation".

Real and perceivable hard metrics often become sales faster than "Hidden Barriers". Its risks are equally real: Slow means a window. The 100,000 RMB-level price war is intensifying, waiting for the "Global Car" narrative to be understood by the market, opponents may have already fought back with price cuts. Traffic windows do not wait, and "Slow Work" fears most is missing that hottest wind.

A more realistic judgment is: Whether Fengyun T7 succeeds is not about how loud the two words "Global" sound, but whether it can translate this pitch into a few sentences ordinary people can understand: Range not fake, space sufficient, safety in place, price real.

Where is the Road

The launch of Fengyun T7 reflects the differentiation happening in the Chinese car market in a certain way.

Some people continue to fight "Only speed prevails", grabbing mindshare with speed and volume; another group starts to look back, make up the "Quality" lesson - run validation enough, give configurations, press price to fight. Chery chose the latter path.

The era of high growth is ending. When "Only Fast" no longer equals "Can Win", the next keywords might become "Reliable". A pure electric SUV just over 90,000 RMB, verified in 21 countries, all trims 600km, fits right on the point of "Reliable".

But whether the car is good or not is ultimately user voting. Whether "Steady Happiness" in Wu Kequn's mouth can turn into real orders, it depends on whether Chery can tell "Global Quality" into ordinary people's bills.

The story of Fengyun T7 has just begun. And within the framework of "Long-termism", being a little slower might not be wrong.

Original: Northern Car Market Wu Shuhao

On August 26, 2026, the Chery Fengyun T7 launch event themed "Steady Happiness" was successfully held. The native global quality pure electric SUV Fengyun T7 under the Chery Fengyun series officially landed in the domestic market. The new car launches three configurations: 600 km Enjoyment Edition, 600 km Comfort Edition, 600 km Intelligence Edition. Official guide price 97,900 Yuan to 118,900 Yuan, limited-time advance trade-in price 94,900 Yuan to 115,900 Yuan. Launch delivery achieved on-site at the event, multiple foreign users became the first owners, fulfilling global rigorous car building standards with 100,000 Yuan level pricing, reshaping the value benchmark for 100,000 Yuan level pure electric SUV market.

Under current intensifying competition in the new energy industry, "crash-course car production" has become a common industry phenomenon. Fengyun T7 goes against this, sticking to the long-term car building philosophy. It proposes the core slogan "Global cars cannot be rushed". It refuses the conventional path of simply modifying domestic models for export, adapts to global regulations from the R&D source, and returns to the domestic market after comprehensive verification in global extreme road conditions. It is a true native global car. Its co-origin overseas model Lepas L6 has landed in South Africa and Thailand markets first, appeared at Milan Design Week gaining international praise, supported by authoritative reports from Associated Press. Overseas engineers and overseas owners' real testimonials continue, fully validating the product's global quality strength.

Famous musician Wu Kehqun attended this launch event as the Happiness Experience Officer. Together with Chery Automotive Executive Vice President Li Xueyong, they held an in-depth dialogue around family travel happiness. Both parties deeply agreed with the brand's car building logic of "Careful Craftsmanship Builds Good Cars", jointly launched the Fengyun T7 "Happiness Co-creation Plan", advocating protecting daily steady happiness with reliable travel.

Fengyun T7's "slowness" is hidden in the fine craftsmanship throughout the entire R&D, design, standards, and verification chain. At the R&D level, the new car has undergone a 3-year R&D cycle, deeply polished relying on Chery's global 1+7+N R&D system, pre-researched global regulations, visited 15 typical countries, surveyed 5,000+ global users' real car usage needs, and deeply adapted to 210 countries and regions' car usage scenarios and regulatory requirements.

At the design level, it was collaboratively created by over 100 designers from 10 global design centers, fusing global aesthetics with Oriental elegance, the co-origin model has gained international design recognition. At the standards level, the new car is built strictly against the 2026 version E-NCAP 5-star safety standards, about to enter the high regulation European market.

It can adapt to -40°C to 55°C super wide temperature range environments, covering 95% of global road types. In Nordic extreme cold conditions, dual-source heating efficiency doubles. In tropical rainy areas, it can cope with 500 mm deep water wading calmly. All tests are real vehicle global road tests, not laboratory simulated data. At the launch event, overseas chassis,造型, and R&D engineers stood together to endorse, further solidifying product technical credibility.

In response to the industry pain points of range shrinkage and configuration reduction in the 100,000 Yuan pure electric market, Fengyun T7 breaks through involution with six major redundancy strengths, achieving full configuration at entry level. Regarding range, the series standard equips a 65.05 kWh Rhino Battery, CLTC range 600 km, measured range can reach up to 681.6 km, achieving reverse false labeling, completely dispelling user range anxiety; 30%-80% fast charging only takes 20 minutes, battery has 2,500 cycle high durability life, long service life.

Recently, Fengyun T7 officially launched. Facing the cutthroat industry situation of pursuing rapid vehicle production, Fengyun T7 adheres to the long-termist mindset of "slow work makes good cars, global quality cannot be rushed", making a native global pure electric SUV. The model undergoes strict overseas validation first, then returns to the domestic market, adapting to regulations and driving environments around the globe from the source.

At the launch event, overseas validation, chassis, and styling engineers lent their support on site. Combined with authentic testimonials from overseas owners, it fully showcases the four major advantages of Fengyun T7: **Super Performance, Global Aesthetics, Enhanced Safety, Smart Intelligence**, establishing the "Super Beauty, Even Better" pure electric SUV product image. The activity also held a delivery ceremony, achieving delivery upon launch, handing over the product quality polished by global testing to users.

The so-called slow work makes good cars does not mean sluggish progress, but investing more time in R&D, design, safety, testing and other links.

In terms of R&D, Fengyun T7 underwent 3 years of polishing, developed relying on Chery's global 1+7+N R&D system; design gathered over 100 designers globally, absorbing 5,000+ user co-creation suggestions; safety benchmarks against 2026 E-NCAP five-star standards, targeting the European high-regulation market.

Whole vehicle durability special testing reached 1.45 million km, total test mileage over 6 million km, mobilizing 81 durable vehicles for simultaneous road testing. The vehicle passed five extreme tests of high temperature, high cold, high humidity, and high salt and alkalinity. Heating performance doubles under the Nordic winter, vehicles can easily pass through 5000 mm deep water wading in rainy areas, driving in extreme environments remains stable.

Fengyun T7 is not simply a domestic model modification going overseas. It has built a complete global R&D-Standard-Validation-Quality system, capable of adapting to driving needs in 210 countries and regions. Chery has ranked first among Chinese brand passenger car exports for 23 consecutive years, with over 20 million global users, products sold to over 130 overseas markets.

The homologous model Lepas L6 has landed in Thailand and South Africa. Subsequently, Indonesia, EU, Australia & New Zealand, UK, Israel, and Malaysia markets will be launched one after another. The project visited 15 typical countries, completed over 5,000 global user surveys; 10 global design centers jointly created, Lepas L6 appeared at Milan Design Week and received positive reviews.

At the press conference, famous musician Hacken Wu appeared as "Happiness Experience Officer" to surprise everyone, and engaged in dialogue with Chery Automobile Executive Vice President Li Xueyong on the topic of "Steady Happiness", sharing driving experiences and interpreting together the steady happiness brought by Fengyun T7. Both parties agreed on the car-building concept of "Slow Work Makes Good Cars", and jointly launched the Fengyun T7 "Happiness Co-creation Plan" on site, calling on everyone to discover happy moments in life. From pre-sale leading, global standards, global validation, global adaptation, to delivery upon launch, Fengyun T7, with sincere pricing and global strength, releases the product momentum of "Global Quality Pure EV SUV", unlocking "Super Beautiful and Better" car life for global users.

Slow Work Makes Good Cars, Make Native Global Cars

Currently, the new energy industry is dominated by fierce competition, and "Rapid Car Building" has become the trend, yet Fengyun T7 chose a "Slow" road: a 3-year R&D cycle, repeatedly polishing with the global 1+7+N R&D system; 5000+ user co-creation, collaboration of over 100 designers; benchmarking 2026 E-NCAP standards for development, about to enter high-regulation European markets; 1.45 million km durability validation, undergoing tests of five extreme environments such as high heat, extreme cold, high humidity, high salinity. Dual-source heating efficiency doubles under Nordic extreme cold conditions, and vehicles can wade 500mm calmly in tropical rainy and humid areas.

Fengyun T7 is not a simple facelift of domestic models for overseas export, but a native global car synchronized from the source to adapt to vehicle usage needs in 210 countries and regions worldwide. Chery has been the No. 1 Chinese brand passenger car exporter for 23 consecutive years, with global users exceeding 20 million, and products sold to 130+ overseas markets. Fengyun T7's source global model Lepas L6 has been launched in South Africa and Thailand, and will land in Indonesia in August, enter the EU in September, and continue to launch in Australia and New Zealand, UK, Israel, Malaysia in October, meanwhile the model appeared at Milan Design Week and received widespread praise, proving Fengyun T7's "Global Aesthetics" design strength can withstand global aesthetic testing.

Delivery Upon Launch, Joining Hacken Wu to Unlock "Steady Happiness"

On the day of the press conference, Fengyun T7 simultaneously held a handover ceremony, and a batch of foreign users who have lived in China for a long time became the first batch of owners, truly realizing "delivery upon launch". Previously, Fengyun T7 test vehicles have run all over Brazil high speed bumps, Mexico cobblestone roads, Germany highway high curvature bends, South Africa unpaved muddy roads, etc., global complex road conditions, receiving quality inspection from real roads rather than laboratory simulations throughout the journey, and received Associated Press authoritative attention, the Chengdu Auto Show site also attracted foreign car viewing groups to visually confirm the high attention of overseas markets to Chinese models.

At the event site, Hacken Wu combined with his experience shared his understanding of "Steady Happiness", and experienced and shared configuration such as Fengyun T7 exterior color, cockpit space, 600km range, Awakening Mode, cross-layer intelligent parking, and Rock-solid body, intelligent assisted driving, etc. He and Li Xueyong both agreed that "Steady Happiness" is not far away, but hidden in the "security at fingertips" brought by 38 storage spaces, the "carefree comfort" brought by highway pilot and 300+ full-scenario auto parking, the "reduced anxiety" brought by 600km range and 20-minute fast charging, the "family's peaceful sleeping faces" guarded by Pure Flat Bed Mode, and the "full sense of security" built by 80% high-strength steel body, 9 airbags, 6D Lock-Armor 31-layer battery protection.Sincere Launch Policy, Limited Time Open Starting Today Until September 30

Fengyun T7, at the 100,000 RMB class price, brings native global car strength of global standards, global validation, global adaptation to Chinese family users, using reliable quality polished by real road conditions to guard the steady happiness of every user in ordinary days.

There is quite an interesting phenomenon.

In 2026, the new energy vehicle market has become so competitive that everyone can see it.

New cars are released almost every month. Some brands are eager to roll out a completely new model within half a year, pile on various configurations, set a price that looks sincere, and the whole process flows smoothly.

But when you really check the reviews of those cars—range exaggeration, breakdowns in winter, loose chassis, and hit-or-miss quality control—you will find that speed in car manufacturing seems inherently at odds with quality.

So when I saw the Chery Fengyun T7 launch, what interested me most was not its price.

However, the price was indeed surprising, the official guide price is from 97,900 yuan to 118,900 yuan. If participating in an early trade-in, it starts from as low as 94,900 yuan.

What truly made me think it was worth discussing is the term they used: "Slow and steady builds a good car".

Saying "slow" in 2026 is rebellious in itself.

Research and development of Fengyun T7 took three years.

What does that mean? Some new power brands nowadays can complete a project from initiation to the whole vehicle in over a year.

In today's industry rhythm, three years can almost be described as "luxurious".

But the Chery brand is interesting. It has been the number 1 exporter of Chinese passenger cars for 23 consecutive years, selling over 20 million cars globally. Its logic is indeed different from brands that only focus on the domestic market.

Fengyun T7 is taking a path of "go overseas first, then return to China".

The overseas version Lepas L6, which shares the same platform, has already launched in markets like South Africa and Thailand.

It has appeared at the Milan Design Week and has been reported by overseas media.

It is not built in Wuhu, Anhui, and then modified for foreigners. Instead, since the first day of R&D, the design was deduced according to the needs of the global market.

For example, safety standards.

Fengyun T7 directly targets not current Chinese standards, but the 2026 version of E-NCAP, the harshest crash test in Europe three years from now.

Nine airbags are provided, which is quite an investment within its class.

Another example is chassis tuning.

In Chery's chassis team, there is a lead figure, a former Maserati chassis tuning expert, who specializes in tuning for speeds above 160 km/h.

Why must it be above 160? Because speed limits on European highways are the norm, you need the car to remain stable under such conditions.

This "global-oriented" mindset is reflected in many details.

Thai right-hand drive users prefer a heavier steering feel, so the steering force was increased by one level during tuning.

In places like Indonesia with bumpy roads, the steering feel is weighted even further and the centering feedback is optimized.

In the Nordic countries with long periods of polar night, interior lighting and charging backlights were specially optimized.

Overall, adaptations were made for more than 80 local habits.

These details may not seem earth-shattering individually, but together they reflect an attitude towards car manufacturing: not building a car that only runs in China, but a car that can run in any corner of the Earth.

Aiming for this goal, the verification mileage for Fengyun T7 is 1.45 million km, with 81 vehicles running repeatedly in five extreme environments.

High temperature, extreme cold, high humidity, high salinity. After covering all of these, it continued on actual roads in Europe, Australia/New Zealand, the Middle East, and Southeast Asia.

Brazil's gravel roads, Mexico's cobblestone roads, Southeast Asian rainy season roads with 500 mm standing water—all must be run on actual vehicles.

It is not just about simulating with equipment in a lab and calling it a day.

Chery calls this "slow and steady". I think essentially it is "risk pre-positioning", solving problems before the launch, rather than waiting for users to find issues on the road to fix them later.

To be honest, there are really not many brands in the industry doing this now.

On one hand, there is capital pressure, and products must be launched and monetized as soon as possible.

On the other hand, competition is too fierce; whoever takes one step later loses market share to others.

In today's industry where "nothing is stronger than speed" has almost become a creed, slowing down requires strong conviction.

But interestingly, over the past two years we have seen too many cases of quality issues caused by rushing to launch, from battery safety to loss of control in smart driving to chassis fractures, constantly emerging.

MIIT also publicly criticized the issue of "radical innovation designs applied to vehicles without sufficient experimental verification" earlier this year.

Between speed and slowness, there are actually no absolute advantages or disadvantages.

But if I had to choose a car to drive for several years with my family, traveling everywhere, I would most likely choose the one that went through the "slow" process.

Fengyun T7 is priced in the 100,000 yuan range. The entire series is equipped with a 65 kWh battery, 600 km range, heat pump air conditioning, and AGS intelligent grille.

To be honest, in this class, there are not many cars on the market that can achieve this level of safety configuration and range.

It is not a strategy that uses low configurations to lower the threshold, making you tempted but actually unaffordable. Instead, it completes basic values like range and safety, then creates a gradient in intelligence and comfort.

At the end of the day, a "global car" is not a marketing concept; it is a methodology.

It is about whether you are willing to spend three years on R&D, willing to drive the car to the world's harshest roads for verification, willing to do a round of tuning specifically for the steering feel of a right-hand drive market.

Users may never see these things, but they determine whether this car is still a trouble-free car after three or five years of driving.

Fengyun T7 is not an impressive model; the design won't make your heart beat at first sight, and the configuration is not the top tier.

But there is something reassuring about it: all the homework that needs to be done has been done.

This is worth more than anything in the 2026 Chinese automotive market.

On August 26, the home pure electric SUV featuring global quality—Chery Fengyun T7 officially went on sale.

The vehicle completed verification in 21 countries and 212 regulatory certifications, invested 81 dedicated durability test vehicles for testing, and completed closure of various risk issues during the R&D phase.

Nowadays, racing for speed has become the norm in the new energy vehicle sector, with new models launched quickly and specs stacked crazily, yet many owners complain about buying "rushed cars". Chery Fengyun T7 launched the slogan "Slow work builds good cars", also undertook a reverse overseas trial, and the most striking part is the price, priority exchange price starting at 94,900! Some say, with this product strength and cost-performance ratio, it has already set the tone for the 100k-level pure electric segment.

Unlike most models sold domestically first with simple modifications for overseas, Fengyun T7's platform-mate models were first deployed to overseas markets like Thailand and South Africa, undergoing strict tests of high temperatures, heavy rains, and complex road conditions, before returning to the domestic market. Built to E-NCAP five-star standards, the 80% high-strength steel body paired with 9 airbags brings global standards to family cars.

The point that most appeals to ordinary families is that it achieves range parity across all trims. All three configurations come with CLTC 600km range, avoiding the range shrinkage seen in entry-level versions. The 65.05kWh Rhinoceros battery supports a 30%-80% fast charge in 20 minutes. Official tested range exceeds 667km, significantly relieving home users' range anxiety. The chassis uses a front MacPherson and rear multi-link independent suspension, tuned by an overseas chassis team, ensuring comfort for daily commuting and weekend outings.

In the same-class market, it directly faces popular contenders like BYD Yuan Plus and Leapmotor B10. Compared to competitors, Fengyun T7's advantage lies in consistent range across the lineup and global strict verification endorsement. However, advanced intelligent driving is only provided on the top trim, while mid-to-low trims have restrained intelligence features, which is a point of controversy for many netizens. Other brands provide basic intelligent driving even at the entry level, while Fengyun T7 prioritizes costs on range, body safety, and battery durability, addressing core family user needs.

Many will ask, is "Slow work builds good cars" a solid product foundation or a packaged selling point? In my opinion, speed itself cannot directly define a car's quality. For 100k-level family cars, ordinary users care more about battery degradation and overall vehicle reliability after 3-5 years. Fengyun T7 treats the overseas market as a testing ground, using massive road tests to polish the product. This approach is commendable, but whether it is truly good ultimately requires long-term verification by a large number of domestic owners.

In the current price war that has become extremely intense, having seen too many new cars with stacked specs, a product like Fengyun T7 that prioritizes solidifying basic quality offers family users a different choice. Whether it is a gimmick or strength, it ultimately must be tested by time and the market.

On August 26, 2026, Chery's family all-electric SUV featuring "Global Quality" — Fengyun T7 officially went on sale. The new car comes in three configurations, with an official guide price of 97,900~118,900 Yuan. After adding limited-time trade-in benefits, the entry threshold is as low as 94,900 Yuan. This pricing directly enters the most competitive 100,000-level market, but its confidence goes far beyond price — standard 65.05kWh large battery across the series, CLTC 600km long range, 9 airbags, and high-spec intelligent driving hardware, striving to redefine the value benchmark of this price range with "uniform configuration".

At the launch event, Chery creatively chose "Steady Happiness" as the theme, inviting musician Wu Kequn to serve as "Happiness Experience Officer". The whole event had no boring technical presentations, but revolved around family travel scenarios and the "slow craftsmanship car building" concept, conveying Fengyun T7's core selling points: reliable, solid, no hassle.

Three Years to Sharpen a Sword, Global Verification Foundation

Fengyun T7 is not a newly launched car rushed to market, it relies on Chery's global "1+7+N" R&D system, undergone three years of polishing. Safety standards benchmarking the stricter 2026 E-NCAP 5-star standards, and completed 1.45 million kilometers of extreme road tests in 21 countries, from -40°C severe cold to 55°C extreme heat, from high humidity and saline soil to deep water wading, almost covering any extreme environment global users might encounter. Currently, the same model is sold in Thailand, South Africa, etc., it will enter EU, Australia/New Zealand, and Middle East markets in the future, true "Global Car" identity, giving its quality control a hardcore endorsement.

Six Major Core Configurations Standard Across Full Series, Goodbye "Entry-Level Trim"

What troubles Fengyun T7's competitors the most, is that it lists "hard goods" that most brands only put on top trims directly as standard equipment:

• Honest Range: All series equipped with 65.05kWh Rhinoceros battery, CLTC range 600km, Multiple media tests showed 681.6km, Exceeding advertised range has become Chery's specialty. Fast charging is also capable, 30%~80% charge takes only 20 minutes. In addition, dual-source wide-temperature range heat pump air conditioning and AGS intelligent air intake grille are also standard across the series, Anxiety of reduced range in winter is greatly alleviated.
• Cost no expense on Safety: Body uses 80% high-strength steel cage structure, Hot-formed steel proportion near 19%, Standard 9 airbags across series (Rare in its class).

• Intelligent Hardware Made Standard: Vehicle computer carries 4nm process 8775 Cockpit-Driving integrated chip first in class (Compute power 72TOPS), Paired with Doubao large model smart cockpit, Smoothness and voice interaction far exceed class. More worth mentioning is, Auto parking supports 300+ scenarios, Highway pilot assistance is equipped on the two models other than the entry version, Truly bringing advanced intelligent driving to the 100,000 level.

• How to choose among three configurations? Core difference lies only in comfort and intelligent driving
• Three car models are completely consistent in range, power, airbags, screen size, speaker count. Middle trim (Comfort Enjoyment) costs 11,000 Yuan more than entry version, Includes 360° panoramic image, Electric tailgate, Front seat heating/ventilation and 50W wireless charging, These daily high-frequency functions are very worth upgrading. Top trim (Smart Enjoyment) costs another 10,000 Yuan, Exclusive Falcon 500 intelligent driving system, Supports highway NOA and full-scenario parking, Suitable for users with hard demand for intelligent driving.

Chery's global quality pure electric SUV Fengyun T7 is officially launched. The new car is launched in three versions: 600km Joy Edition, 600km Comfort Edition, 600km Smart Edition. Launch guide price is 97,900 Yuan – 118,900 Yuan, priority trade-in price is 94,900 Yuan – 115,900 Yuan. Relying on four core values: Super Running, Global Aesthetics, Safer, Smart Wisdom, Fengyun T7 uses sincere pricing to directly target the 100,000-level home pure electric market.

At the launch event, well-known musician Wu Kequn made a surprise appearance in the identity of 'Happiness Experience Officer', having a conversation with Chery Automobile Executive Vice President Li Xueyong around 'Steady Happiness', sharing car usage experience. At the same time, Li Xueyong also conveyed the long-term car building concept of 'Careful Work Builds Good Cars' to everyone. Both parties jointly launched Fengyun T7 'Happiness Co-creation Plan', calling on everyone to discover happy moments in life.

As an original global car, Fengyun T7 refuses to simply modify domestic models for overseas export. The new car went through a 3-year R&D cycle, refined based on Chery's global 1+7+N R&D system, gathering over 100 global designers and over 5,000 users for deep co-creation. The vehicle is developed according to the 2026 Edition E-NCAP five-star safety standard, functional safety reaches the highest ASIL-D level, preparing in advance for entering high-regulation markets in Europe. In the verification stage, Fengyun T7 invested 81 units of exclusive durability test vehicles for simultaneous road tests, the total cumulative test mileage exceeds 6 million kilometers, and durability special tests reach 1.45 million kilometers. The vehicle crosses extreme environments such as high temperature, high cold, high humidity, high salinity, etc., adapting to an ultra-wide temperature range of -40°C to 55°C, covering over 95% of global road types. Its source model Lepas L6 has landed in overseas markets such as South Africa and Thailand first, and will subsequently enter multiple regions including the EU, Australia and New Zealand.

At the product level, Fengyun T7 revolves around the four core values and the 'Six Redundancies' hardcore strength to fully meet the travel needs of family users.

Super Running — Standard equipped with 65.05kWh Rhino battery across the series, CLTC range 600km, actual test can reach 681.6km achieving 'Actual Range Exceeds Claimed'; 30%-80% fast charging only takes 20 minutes; equipped with dual-source wide temperature range heat pump air conditioning, range increases by 30% at -10°C, -30°C to 55°C ultra-wide temperature range stable operation.

Global Aesthetics — Relying on 10 global design centers and over 100 designers working together, blending Eastern elegance and global aesthetics, 6 Eastern elegance car colors, Blazing Orange adopts luxury car level Tri-coat three-layer craft.

Safer — Rock Solid Body uses 80% high-strength steel and 18.84% hot-formed steel, constructing a nine-transverse five-longitudinal cage body structure; most airbags in class at 9, including 48L far-side airbag; 6D Lock Armor 31-layer battery protection, IP68 waterproofing reaches 96 times National Standard, side anti-compression reaches 2 times National Standard.

Smart Wisdom — Same class premiere 4nm process 8775 cockpit-driving integrated chip, 72 TOPS computing power, system response as low as 80ms; Lingxi Cockpit 2.0 integrates Doubao Large Model, supports full scenario voice interaction; 22 high-precision sensors, supports 300+ full scenario automatic parking and highway navigation assistance.

At the launch event, Fengyun T7 launched two hardcore bottom-line guarantees: if the power battery is damaged due to thermal runaway caused by its own reasons, compensate with a new car of the same model; within one year of purchase, if an accident occurs due to smart driving system reasons in parking or smart navigation scenarios, maximum compensation is 5 million Yuan.

100,000-level price, Global-level quality. Fengyun T7, with a long-termism car building attitude, integrates reassurance, comfort, and reliable travel experience into daily life, setting a new value benchmark for the home pure electric SUV market.

On August 26, Chery Fengyun T7 officially launched at Yanqi Lake. The new car offers 3 versions, with an early trade-in price ranging from 94,900 Yuan to 115,900 Yuan, and simultaneously launching 9 car-buying perks.

If looking only at the price, this is a standard 100,000-level home pure electric SUV. However, by penetrating the spec sheet, you will find that Fengyun T7's product logic has an essential difference from competitors in the same price range: it chooses to take "Global Validation" and "Full Series Long Range" as the foundation, instead of pouring all costs into marketing gimmicks. This approach seems somewhat "alternative" in the current price war.

Full Series 600km: Rejecting the "Downgraded Specs" Wordplay

The 100,000-level pure electric SUV market has an open secret: to lower the starting price, low-spec models often equip small batteries around 50kWh, with CLTC range stuck in the 400–500km range. If consumers want 600km, they usually have to pay extra to get the top-spec.

Fengyun T7's approach is that its 3 versions come standard with 65.05kWh Rhino batteries across the full series, with full series CLTC 600km.

This cannot be summarized by just the three words "Big Battery". The greater significance lies in — it allows 100,000-level users not to compromise between "affordable" and "goes far". City commuting charges once a week, cross-city round trips do not need mid-trip recharging, this sense of certainty is what family users truly need.

Recharging efficiency is also not graded: full series 30%—80% fast charge in 20 minutes, recharging 300km in a cup of coffee's time. With dual-source wide temperature range heat pump (standard on full series), range increases by 30% in -10℃ environment, -30℃—55℃ wide temperature range operation. Whether it is Northern winter or Southern heat, -40℃—60℃ working temperature makes the usage scenarios of this car unrestricted.

In terms of actual test, media actual test range reached as high as 681.6 km, achieving "Reverse Exaggerated Specs" with actual test performance exceeding 667km. For family users, displayed range is more credible than rated range, this works better than any marketing talk.

Global 210 Market Standards: Investing Validation Costs in What Users Cannot See

The most overlooked aspect of Fengyun T7 by spec sheet enthusiasts, but the most worth family users focusing on, is its global validation system.

As Chery's first intelligent-electric native global vehicle, Fengyun T7 relies on the global "1+7+N" R&D system, incorporating regulations and standards of 210 countries and regions worldwide along with vehicle usage needs into the product definition at the front end. The whole vehicle cumulative test mileage exceeds 6 million km, special durability verification 1.45 million km, traces covering over 100 global extreme road condition environments, spanning -40℃ to 55℃ ultra-wide temperature range.

From high speed bumps in Brazil, cobblestone roads in Mexico, to high-speed highway sharp curves in Germany, unpaved muddy roads in South Africa — these scenarios most domestic users may never encounter in a lifetime. But Chery's logic is: use the strictest environment globally for validation, when returning to domestic daily use, reliability redundancy is naturally maximized.

The direct result of this train of thought is that the homologous model LEPAS L6 has already launched successfully in South Africa and Thailand and joined the Milan Design Week. Markets such as Europe, Australia and New Zealand are also progressing. For domestic consumers, this means what you buy is not a car that "only runs in China", but a product built according to global standards.

Safety: No Downgrade in Full Series, Bottom Line Written into Contract

Another open secret of 100,000-level SUVs is: safety config grading. Reducing airbags, reducing active protection on low specs is a common tactic for high profit margins.

Fengyun T7 did not do this. High-strength steel accounts for 80%, hot-formed steel 18.84%, unique Shotgun structure + double-frame subframe + Pack bumper beam in the same class, front collision 6 paths/side collision 9 force transmission paths. The whole vehicle is equipped with the most 9 airbags in the same class — from the passive safety level, it has not made any subtraction on low specs.

Battery protection is also maximized: 6D Chainmail Armor 31-layer protection, IP68 waterproofing reaches 96 times the national standard, side anti-crush 200kN (2 times national standard), 1008 hours salt spray test, 1.5 times national standard fire test. Chassis refined by an international team led by former Maserati chassis tuning experts, equipped with 70mm large bushings, One-Box wire control braking 136ms build-up pressure, 50.8:49.2 golden axle load ratio (unique in same class), 560mm low center of gravity.

More critically, rights guarantee: damage caused by thermal runaway due to battery itself, compensation for same model or same configuration new car; within one year of car purchase, parking or highway navigation accidents caused by auxiliary/intelligent driving system reasons, maximum compensation 5 million Yuan; first non-commercial owner enjoys whole vehicle and three-electric system lifetime warranty, 666 Yuan purchase lifetime basic maintenance. Writing safety commitments into the contract is more persuasive than writing them on a PPT.

Intelligence: Full Series One-Stop, Not Using Intelligent Driving as a Premium Tool

Many competitors' tactics are: low spec gives a "able to connect CarPlay counts as intelligent", high-end chips and intelligent driving all packed into top-spec to raise profits.

Fengyun T7's approach is different, equipped with same-class first launch 4nm process 8775 cockpit-driving integrated chip, 72TOPS NPU computing power, system response latency 80ms. Equipped with 15.6-inch 2.5K high-definition anti-glare screen, supports CarPlay, HiCar, CarLink wireless connection. Lingxi Cockpit 2.0 x Doubao Large Model supports full-scenario fuzzy voice, six human-companionship modes, and one-click scenarios such as Power Nap/Alertness/Sentry/Baby.

Falcon 500 Driving Assistance System integrates 22 high-precision sensors (3 millimeter-wave radars, 7 cameras, 12 ultrasonic radars), supports 300+ full-scenario automatic parking, 100-meter trail reversing, highway navigation assist.

All three versions have complete capabilities in intelligence level — no need to "pay extra to get top-spec" for a good chip or a set of good intelligent driving. This in 100,000-level market is a real "not playing wordplay".

Space and Appearance: Family Car's "Hidden Essential Needs"

4570x1852x1694mm body, 2700mm wheelbase, space efficiency 84%. Rear 911mm legroom + pure flat floor, 4/6 folding forms pure flat bed mode — taking kids for lunch break, camping overnight can be used. 450L regular trunk + 99L sunken space + 32 storage spots, moving, self-driving, daily commuting loading needs fully covered.

Exterior, Oriental Wind-Driving aesthetics design, 6 Oriental Elegance paint colors, Crimson Orange adopts Tri-coat three-layer luxury car paint process. Cloud-Wing Embracing Cockpit + Diamond Quilting + Pebble Floating Speakers, interior texture belongs to the first echelon in 100,000-level. These configs will not appear in the C-position of parametric comparison, but are things family users use every day.

Fengyun T7 Launch: It Doesn't Involve Specs, It's Honest Full Series No-Downgrade

Competitors in the same price zone are used to using the logic of "low-spec traffic attraction, top-spec money making": entry version range shrunk to over 400 km, airbags reduced to 6, chips used previous generation — wait until you enter the store to tell you "add 20,000 to get mid-spec is enough".

Fengyun T7 chose a different path: range not graded, safety not graded, intelligence not graded. It uses "Full Series 600km + Full Series 9 Airbags + Full Series 8775 + Global Validation" combination, raising the bottom line of 100,000-level SUVs as a whole by a margin.

Hacken Lee said at the launch event: "Only after seeing the hustle and bustle can one understand the preciousness of stability." This sentence also holds for product logic — in today's 100,000-level pure electric SUV crazy involution, enterprises willing to slow down to do global validation and give full value to every configuration are more worthy of respect.

Whether Fengyun T7 can become a blockbuster ultimately depends on delivery quality and after-sales experience. But at least from product definition, it provided a thought-provoking sample for 100,000-level market, family users want not only the most explosive specs, but also trust that remains secure after three years.

Competition in the domestic new energy sector has entered a frenzied stage.

The pace of new car iterations has been repeatedly compressed, shortened from one generation every three years in the past to two years or eighteen months; some brands even achieve multiple updates a year. Price wars, configuration involution, and traffic games are played one after another. The entire industry seems to be stepping onto an endless racing track, with everyone chasing faster new product speeds.

While the entire industry believes "only speed cannot be broken" in this general environment, Chery, at a new product launch event, told a story counter to industry trends.

The new Fengyun T7 officially debuts. The new car launches with three configurations. The official guide price range is 97,900-118,900 yuan. Exchange users can also enjoy a 3,000 yuan early exchange discount. Looking at the pricing alone, it is just another new contender in the 100,000 yuan level pure electric SUV track. But looking past the price layer, behind this car lies a car creation philosophy completely different from the industry mainstream.

The greatest uniqueness of the Fengyun T7 lies in the fact that it is not a special model created specifically for the local market, but a native global car defined from the source.

Its sibling model Lepas L6 has already completed launches and deliveries in the South African and Thai markets. According to the planning schedule, it landed in Indonesia in August, entered the EU market in September, and in October will successively cover multiple regions including Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Israel, and Malaysia.

In other words, before officially meeting domestic consumers, this car has already gone through the full process test of launch, delivery, and real user usage overseas.

This product path of "overseas first, domestic later" is indeed rare in the 100,000 yuan level pure electric SUV market. The common logic of most car companies is to first deeply cultivate the domestic market. After the scale is validated, then make adaptive modifications to sell overseas. But from the beginning of the Fengyun T7 R&D project, laws and regulations of 210 countries and regions worldwide, as well as driving habits, were taken into account. The vehicle is developed forward according to the 2026 E-NCAP five-star safety standards.

Its R&D cycle lasts a full three years. Placed in the current industry environment pursuing rapid landing, a three-year R&D cycle can be considered a kind of "luxury".

The project relies on Chery's global "1+7+N" R&D system, mobilizing hundreds of designers distributed across ten global design centers to participate collaboratively. In the early stage of the project, the team visited 15 representative countries and completed deep research on 5,000 global users. The sibling model Lepas L6 debuted at Milan Design Week. The external evaluation was not a visual impact of "stunning", but rather "timeless". This timelessness is indeed the result settled after gathering aesthetic tastes from different regions around the world.

In today's automotive market, many products are obsessed with the visual impact of the first glance. But to achieve long-term timelessness, it instead tests the design skills more.

The appearance of the Fengyun T7 is not an individual inspiration output of a certain designer, but a co-creation result of large-scale global users. Over 5,000 ordinary users from different countries, their real car usage scenarios and aesthetic preferences, are all included in the assessment dimensions of the whole vehicle design. The final product has no radical exaggerated styling. The overall style is restrained and coordinated, pursuing a lasting sense of visual comfort.

Hundreds of designers work collaboratively. The goal is not to create an eye-catching blockbuster appearance, but to seek a broad aesthetic consensus. A car must simultaneously take into account the reserved aesthetics of European users, the practicality demands of Southeast Asian users, and the unique preferences of the Middle East region. The optimal solution is to return to the essence of design: good-looking, practical, and able to withstand the polishing of time.

In terms of safety, the Fengyun T7's body structure, battery protection, and full set of active safety systems are all developed against the 2026 E-NCAP five-star standard. Compared to most same-price products currently on the market, it directly crosses to the next generation of safety systems.

The whole vehicle environmental adaptability covers the extreme interval of -40°C to 55°C. The dual-source heating system needed for the Nordic winter environment, the 500mm wading ability for the tropical rainy season, are not optional configurations, but hard engineering indicators directly written into the basic product definition.

This redundant design in standards is difficult for consumers to perceive intuitively during short-term car use, but it directly determines the lower limit of vehicle reliability for long-term use.

Its whole vehicle verification system is substantial enough among same-level products. The project invested 81 exclusive durability test vehicles to carry out road tests simultaneously. The cumulative test mileage of the whole vehicle exceeded 6 million kilometers, among which the durability special actual test mileage was 1.45 million kilometers. Test footprints covered regions such as the EU, Australia-New Zealand, Middle East, South Africa, Russia, Mexico, Brazil, and more, facing more than 100 types of complex road conditions globally.

Brazil's high-frequency high-speed hump, Mexico's bumpy cobblestone road surface, Germany's high-speed large curvature bends, South Africa's soft unpaved dirt roads, Southeast Asia's continuous rainwater flooded sections, the Middle East's high-temperature and sun exposure environment all year round, all adopt real road actual tests, without relying on laboratory simulation data.

As the official said, all quality conclusions come from the inspection of real roads.

Before the official announcement in China, this test car had already appeared frequently all over the world. Crushing speed humps in Brazil, driving over Mexico's bumpy road surfaces, challenging Germany's high-speed bends, galloping on South Africa's wilderness dirt roads, holding up Southeast Asian rainy seasons and Middle Eastern heatwaves, and surviving the Nordic severe winters.

This global verification system received positive evaluations from the Associated Press. At the Chengdu Auto Show scene, the foreign exhibition team also showed strong interest in the Fengyun T7. Chery has maintained the first place in Chinese brand passenger car exports for 23 consecutive years. Global users have broken through 20 million, products sold to over 130 countries and regions. The globalized experience accumulated over the years is all fed back to the product power of Fengyun T7.

The starting price of 97,900 yuan is the most direct signal sent by Fengyun T7 to the market. But what is worth more attention than the price is the sediment behind the price: three years of complete R&D cycle, massive global real vehicle verification, forward-looking E-NCAP safety standards, actual tests of hundreds of extreme road conditions.

When the entire industry is chasing faster iterations, Chery gives another answer with Fengyun T7: A reliable good car aimed at the global market cannot be rushed and cannot be fast.

The 100,000 yuan level pure electric SUV market never lacks low-price products, but choices that "maintain affordability while ensuring reliability and durability" are still scarce. If a car can withstand the heavy tests of Brazil's bumpy roads, the Middle East's continuous high temperatures, and Germany's high-speed bends, then returning to the domestic market, facing ordinary family daily commuting scenarios, it will naturally not disappoint users.

Nowadays in the new energy industry, cutthroat competition is fierce, and "speed" has become the keyword: fast model updates, fast new car launches, fast global expansion pace. Many models first target the domestic market, simply update models and package for export; "global car" seems more like a marketing slogan.

 The Fengyun T7 that officially launched on August 26, however, took the slow road: from the start of R&D, it targeted global standards, tested on global extreme road conditions to complete validation, returned to the domestic market with recognition from overseas markets, it is a true "native global car".

Slow craftsmanship in building cars, slowing down at every standard

The Fengyun T7's "slowness" is not low efficiency, but rather filling up global standards from the source.

3-year R&D cycle, relying on the global 1+7+N R&D system, researched global regulations 2 years in advance, directly benchmarked against 2026 version E-NCAP standards for design, simultaneously adapting to driving needs in 210 countries and regions worldwide. Compared to "updating domestically then going global", it is a car made for global users from the root.

Validation work was done rigorously: 81 durability test vehicles, cumulative 1.45 million km validation mileage, covering extreme temperature zones from -40°C to 55°C, enduring trials in 7 major categories of extreme environments including Nordic extreme cold, Southeast Asian rainstorms, Middle East high heat, Brazilian gravel roads, etc. 500mm off-road wading depth, electrical stability under high-temperature sun exposure, range not dropping sharply in extreme cold weather, all results run from real vehicle global road tests, not laboratory simulated data.

At the launch event, overseas chassis engineers, styling engineers, and R&D engineers collectively stood to endorse it, also confirming that this is a product developed through global collaboration.

Global quality is not self-proclaimed

The confidence of "global cars" ultimately relies on the market and users to speak.

Homologous model Lepas L6 has already launched first in South Africa and Thailand, will subsequently land in EU, Australia/New Zealand, UK markets, and appeared at Milan Design Week, obtaining international design recognition. Chery itself ranked first in Chinese brand passenger car exports for 23 consecutive years, global users broke 20 million, products sold to over 130 overseas markets, enough overseas market base to support.

Domsetic market response is also very practical: 10,937 units locked within 72 hours of reservation opening, broke 16,787 units in 9 days; at Chengdu Auto Show, overseas influencers specially visited the exhibition and ordered on the spot; on the launch day, a delivery ceremony was held synchronously, foreign users in China also became among the first batch of owners, truly achieving "launch and delivery".

100k-level pricing, core specs not shrunk

Many people might worry, does global standard mean high price? Fengyun T7 positioning is 100k-level pure electric SUV, core specs are actually very solid.

Super Range: All models standard equipped with 65.05kWh large capacity battery, CLTC range 600km, actual range performance better than rated; 30% to 80% charge in 20 minutes, charging efficiency sufficient. Dual-source wide-temperature-range heat pump air conditioning standard on all models, range increased by 30% at -10°C, better for North China winter usage. 12-in-1 electric drive balances power and energy consumption, feels light and fast yet fuel-efficient to drive.

A few final words

In an industry where everyone pursues "speed", Fengyun T7 chooses to slow down to make standards, make validations, make global adaptations, essentially exchanging long-termism for user's long-term peace of mind.

100k-level price, paired with globally unified quality standards, for users who want to buy a reliable, worry-free home pure electric SUV, this "native global car" polished with slow craftsmanship, is indeed a high cost-performance practical choice.

August 26, Global Quality Pure Electric SUV Fengyun T7 officially launched, the new car offers 3 versions, launch guide price 97,900 CNY—118,900 CNY, priority trade-in price 94,900 CNY—115,900 CNY.

To Wrap Up: The 100,000-level pure electric market competition is increasingly fierce, Fengyun T7 with core advantages of "No Compromise across All Series, Global Quality, Ultra-long Range", breaks traditional ideas of configuration arm race, downgrades core hardware, safety standards, smart experience to entry-level price. With Fengyun T7 official launch, Chery will further solidify home pure electric market layout, with global quality product strength, bring more reliable, more secure pure electric travel solutions for Chinese families.

Evening of August 26, Chery Automobile's highly anticipated "Global Quality Pure Electric SUV" — Fengyun T7 officially launched globally at Yanqi Lake, Beijing. The new car launched with 3 trim configurations: 600km Joy Edition, 600km Comfort Edition, 600km Smart Edition, with an Official Guide Price of 97,900 Yuan — 118,900 Yuan, and the Priority Trade-in Price directly dropped to 94,900 Yuan — 115,900 Yuan. In the "Fast Era" where the auto industry generally races in speed and gimmicks, Chery Fengyun T7 goes against the trend, with the car-building philosophy of "Slow work builds good cars, global cars cannot be rushed at all", a long-termist approach. After rigorous durability verification across 21 countries and 1.45 million kilometers globally, carrying "Crash Safety, Battery Safety, Range Equality, All-domain Energy Saving, Handling Performance, Whole Vehicle Verification" six major product redundancies and four core values, it has set a new global quality benchmark for the 100,000-yuan level pure electric SUV market.

Slow work builds good cars: Reject "Fast Food Car Building". Under the current extremely competitive new energy vehicle market wave where "one model change a year, one generation change every half year" is impetuous, many car companies compressed R&D cycles to seize the trend, leading to users frequently suffering betrayal and quality hazards. As a leading car company ranked first in Chinese brand passenger car exports for 23 consecutive years, with global users exceeding 20 million, Chery gave a completely different answer sheet on Fengyun T7 — "Slow work builds good cars, global cars cannot be rushed at all". Fengyun T7 is not a domestic modified car going overseas in the traditional sense, but a "Native Global Car" that strictly benchmarks the 2026 E-NCAP Global Five-Star Safety Standard from the beginning of product definition.
