On April 18, 2024, on the eve of Beijing Auto Show, Chery officially opened the pre-sale on the 2024 Chery Fengyun New Energy Night. As the flagship product of Fengyun family, the car will launch four models in the future, with the pre-sale price of 159,900-199,900 yuan. The new car is positioned as a medium-sized SUV, which can be regarded as a new energy version of Chery.
Different from other independent brands, Chery always seems to have little voice in the layout of new energy, and the volume of the market does not seem to be the focus of communication, but this does not affect Chery’s layout in the whole product line, especially after the resurrection of Fengyun series, it has brought a variety of new energy versions including cars and SUVs, in addition to providing pure electric versions and plug-in hybrid versions to meet the needs of users in different markets.
Chery Fengyun T9, as a brand-new product of Fengyun Series, provides five-seat and seven-seat layouts, and is equipped with Kunpeng Super C-DM hybrid system, with a comprehensive cruising range of over 1,400 kilometers. In addition, this car will also be equipped with CDC suspension system, which makes this car surpass new energy products at the same price in terms of hardware standards. At the same time, the official also said that this year, Fengyun T9 will be exported overseas, and will continue to lead the China brand to go abroad.
Chery Fengyun T9 belongs to Fengyun series products. The car and Tiggo 9 were born on the Mars super hybrid platform, which can also be understood as this platform, which was built for the new energy era. For the increasingly hot new energy SUV market, Fengyun T9′ s arrival will be a heavy blow to the medium-sized new energy SUV market.
In terms of appearance, Fengyun T9 adopts the design language commonly used in new energy vehicles. The air intake grille is closed in a large area, and vertical air intake is added inside to meet the air intake demand when the engine is working. The headlights on both sides use LED light sources, and the lighting effect can also be guaranteed. Air inlets are also added on both sides of the front enclosure, emphasizing certain motion attributes.
On the side of the car body, the Chery Fengyun T9 is very full as a whole, basically maintaining the same design as the Tiggo 9, and the suspended roof adds a fashionable atmosphere to the new car. In addition, the hidden door handle further reduces the complicated effect of the side of the car body and is more concise. The hub with multiple spokes also ensures the exquisite feeling of the side. In terms of body size, the length, width and height of the new car are 4795/1930/1738(1741)mm and the wheelbase is 2770mm respectively.
At the rear of the car, Chery Fengyun T9 adopted a penetrating taillight, which was blackened. Seen from the rear 45 degrees, it felt like a Porsche with a strong sense of movement. In addition, different from the traditional fuel car, in order to highlight the new energy identity of the car, the rear enclosure was simple in overall shape and adopted a hidden exhaust layout.
In terms of interior, Chery Fengyun T9 adopts a simple and classy design as a whole, and makes the whole interior full of luxurious texture through the visual creation of two-color splicing. The 15.6-inch central control screen has a suspended design, which has a strong sense of science and technology and excellent display effect, and uses Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip and 5G network to make this screen have excellent operation and fluency. In addition, the car’s all-LCD instrument also adopts a floating design, which can display a wealth of functions. In addition, the high-definition HUD head-up display function also appears on the new car, with L2+ level assisted driving function, making travel more intelligent and interesting.
In other aspects, the car is equipped with panoramic sunroof, 7 airbags, 540-degree panoramic image, 256-color ambient light, 50W mobile phone wireless charging and Sony 14 speaker and ENC active noise reduction. The overall functional configuration is in the medium-sized SUV with a price of 200,000 yuan, which is very competitive.
In terms of comfort configuration, Chery Fengyun T9 is equipped with the main and co-pilot electric seats, and the high-profile models are also equipped with seat massage function and heating and ventilation functions. In the 7-seat version, in order to facilitate three rows of passengers to get on and off, the second row of seats can move with one button.
In terms of power, Chery Fengyun T9 is equipped with a super hybrid system, and the transmission adopts a DHT gearbox, in which the engine adopts a 1.5T turbocharged engine, with a maximum power of 115kW, a peak torque of 220Nm and a thermal efficiency of 44.5%.
Among them, DHT gearbox adopts stepless gearbox, which is also known as E-CVT gearbox. The motor power is 150kW, the peak torque is 310Nm and 265kW, and the comprehensive torque is 530Nm. It supports four driving modes including pure electric, hybrid, extended range and fuel, and the acceleration of 100 kilometers takes only 7.7 seconds.

In terms of market, Chery Fengyun T9 will be at the level of 150,000-200,000 yuan, including Geely Zhiqing, BYD Song PLUS DM-i and Changan Deep Blue S7. By comparison, Chery Fengyun T9 is more perfect in the layout of PHEV, but compared with Song PLUS and Deep Blue S7, it lacks the choice of pure electric vehicles. In addition, Fengyun T9 is also the only SUV with CDC suspension at this price, which will greatly improve the chassis texture.
In addition, at this conference, we also saw Chery’s layout in the field of new energy. The future Fengyun series will cover hybrid, extended range and pure electricity, and will also be divided into three series of products: A, T and M, covering cars, SUVs and MPV models. At the same time, there are all A0-C cars in size, and the number reaches 11.
With the improvement of Chery in the global market, Chery will be more confident to build more products. With the listing of Fengyun T9, the new energy market in China will be further consolidated.
