Speaking of the mainstream features in today's auto market, they are undoubtedly the "fridge, TV, and large sofa." Any model that dares to call itself a high-end product but does not come equipped with these high-end features will undoubtedly be criticized by consumers. Although the "fridge, TV, and large sofa" are very pleasant to use, they come with an equally high price tag. After all, high-end models on the market today that can be equipped with all of these usually start at more than 300,000 yuan. So here is the question: is there an MPV in the 200,000-yuan class equipped with a "fridge, TV, and large sofa"?
A 200,000-yuan-class vehicle fully equipped with a "fridge, TV, and large sofa"
Of course there is. It is today's protagonist—the "Dajia 7 / Dajia 7 Plug-in Hybrid" from SAIC Maxus.
Any consumer who knows about MPVs probably knows the strength of SAIC Maxus. As a first-class brand previously specializing in products such as recreational vehicles and MPVs, SAIC Maxus has created multiple MPVs that not only have an extremely high ownership volume in China, but are even selling well in overseas markets. The Dajia 7 we are talking about today is precisely a popular new energy MPV in the current market.
First of all, in terms of price, the Dajia 7, which offers both plug-in hybrid and pure electric powertrains, starts at only 189,900 yuan. Even for the flagship model fully equipped with the "fridge, TV, and large sofa," after stacking dealership discounts and national subsidy policies, the bare car price is truly brought down to the 200,000-yuan class. This is also the reason we recommend everyone to choose it. After all, compared with similar products whose price reaches the 300,000-yuan class after being fully equipped with the "fridge, TV, and large sofa," the Dajia 7 offers higher cost-effectiveness!
However, for today's consumers who understand cars better and better, when buying a car they no longer only look at the price, but also place greater emphasis on genuine materials. So, is the "fridge, TV, and large sofa" equipped in the Dajia 7 just for show, or is it the real deal?
Obviously, for an established automaker with a good reputation, SAIC Maxus will certainly not use mere showpieces to fool consumers. Take the "fridge, TV, and large sofa" equipped in the Dajia 7: the "fridge" is a smart compressor refrigerator that supports one-touch heating/cooling within 0-50 degrees Celsius. The "TV" consists of as many as three 12.3-inch high-definition screens, including the front passenger entertainment screen, assisted by the 8155 chip and a four-zone voice control system. The "sofa" refers to second-row independent seats made of NAPPA leather and supporting functions such as heating and ventilation. It can be said that every configuration is full of real value, and it is not inferior at all compared with 300,000-yuan-class MPVs that cost more!
"Fuel or electricity" unlocks multi-scenario vehicle use
In addition, for an MPV focused on family use, SAIC Maxus also attaches great importance to the vehicle's safety performance. Therefore, we can see that the Dajia 7 not only adopts an ultra-high-strength cage body structure, but also spares no expense in materials, with high-strength steel accounting for more than 80%, ultra-high-strength steel accounting for 27%, and body torsional rigidity reaching as high as 28,050 N·m/deg. It is precisely because of such solid body materials that the Dajia 7 can pass Europe's more stringent Euro NCAP five-star safety certification, truly ensuring the safety of users' travel.
At the same time, as a new energy MPV offering a dual powertrain system, the plug-in hybrid version of the Dajia 7 is equipped with the ACIS super hybrid system. It not only features a 1.5T third-generation engine dedicated to super hybrid and a DHT gearbox dedicated to super hybrid, but also adopts a P1+P3 dual-motor configuration with higher transmission efficiency and stronger power output. Paired with a large-capacity battery pack, it can not only meet daily urban commuting and low-cost vehicle use needs with an all-electric range of up to 230 km, but also alleviate the range anxiety of new energy vehicles during long-distance travel with fuel consumption as low as about 6L when depleted and a comprehensive range of more than 1,300 km.
If your frequency of long-distance vehicle use is not high, then you can completely choose the pure electric version of the Dajia 7. Its second-generation multi-layer Hair-Pin winding permanent magnet synchronous motor can output a maximum power of 180 kW and a maximum torque of 350 N·m, with performance parameters even more impressive than a six-cylinder engine. Paired with the SAIC Times 90 kWh Rubik's Cube battery, the CLTC pure electric range exceeds 600 km, which can likewise satisfy high-frequency cross-regional travel scenarios. It is worth mentioning that in order to reduce the charging anxiety of pure electric car owners, the Dajia 7 even supports battery swapping, and the fastest battery swap can be completed in just 90 seconds. It is simply too good!
Daxia Car Talk: There is no doubt that as a new energy MPV priced at only about 200,000 yuan, the Dajia 7 not only comes fully equipped with the "fridge, TV, and large sofa," but also has outstanding safety quality and a rich dual powertrain system. In addition, it even supports battery swapping, which is rare in its class. The cost-effectiveness, safety quality, and excellent strength it demonstrates all make it a new energy MPV very worth choosing in the 200,000-yuan price range!
