007, upscale or budget car? Not even Dongfeng themselves can tell you. While it is marketed as a luxurious and sleek sedan, it is nothing short of disappointing. The interior feels cheap with mismatched panels, plastics and a lacklustre sound system. Leather is at a premium apart from the seating area. It has a boring touchscreen with limited functionality as apparently the app doesn't even work? Headroom is disappointing, with the fixed glass roof being its saviour. Underthigh support is insufficient, but seating comfort feels alright. Might save you if you're under 160cm...
There's really nothing that "wow"'s you about this car. Everything they tried is either better off not being there or outclassed by rivals. The real 007 isn't Jadon Sancho, it's this Dongfeng. An absolutely appalling product.
Theres memory seats but cannot use (app not approved for SG use yet).
Theres carblue tooth but cannot use.
Use android auto but laggy.
Spotify sings and hangs then speeds up and repeats.
Waze sometimes hangs. Be prepared to Holland if u rely on waze like me.
Many more promised functions but are not available due to app not approved. Yet.
This post will remain here till issue resolved.
Test drove this car after visiting the Volt showroom. It's super sexy looking and i was excited. I tested both the Cat A and Cat B version, and honestly it was a big let down. The version sold in Singapore doesn't have the very sexy electric spoiler that is available in China and the UAE. There's no app. NO APP!! It's 2026 soon, and this brand still does not have an app??? Feels like although they are supposed to be one of the large state owned brands, they are still start-ups in the EV car segment, so I think it's a massive risk to buy one of these cars now. Volt, the distributor is also a new start-up. The showroom is bare bones and does not inspire trust that they will take care of you in case something happens, and the risk of something happening with Chinese EVs is really high, so not sure if it's worth the risk. The Cat A version is cheap, but it's only 58KWh, which is ridiculously low, good for only around 300+km range on a full charge. The sales guy claims it's 500+ km, but their own written specs declare the range as 6km/KWh so you just do the math yourself. It's pathetic. If you own this, be prepared to be charging your car every 4-5 days.
Dongfeng 007 is stable, comfort, power, spacious. Outstanding pickup power and speed instantly. Good mileage of 550km per charge. Outstanding EV sedan
All I can say is i am very satisfied, go drive one to know and feel one. The design of the car is sleek and smooth and you can play with the lights while stationery or moving slowly, for a Cat A car for this, you still have the luxury to feel the power and push you need when moving off and pick up speed. I'm glad to have found this car.
My wife and I recently went for a test drive of the Dongfeng 007, and we were both extremely impressed. The salesman we met was professional, patient, and knowledgeable. He took the time to explain all the features and details of the car clearly, without any pressure or rush.
During the test drive, the Dongfeng 007 really stood out. It was smooth, quiet, and powerful. The interior felt premium, the technology was intuitive, and the overall driving experience exceeded our expectations. Both my wife and I immediately felt confident and comfortable behind the wheel.
What truly made the experience special was the salesperson
Test drove the epi 007. First look seems a little like the Porsche Panamera from the exterior.
Interior is cosy and spacious. The tech within felt luxurious. Getting more than what most cars have to offer. Test drove BYD and MG together with this model.
BYD felt a bit like Japanese interior. Basic and functional. MG is a bit underwhelming. Dongfeng felt like bang for buck bargain which is great for such a ticket size!
1st impressive sporty and elegant. Seat in the seating are quilted vegan leather seats that premium, sport semi bucket cover up. Car r spacious - cabin with ample legroom, but center console seems larger than seal so front cabin space feel not a larger as seal (personal feel) although car are 20mm bigger than seal.
The door feels cheap and plasticky, the materials lack premium quality, making the touchpoints and surfaces feel low-end. It doesn
