Dongfeng Fengdu MX5 SUV
Spy Shots showing the new Dongfeng Fengdu
MX5 SUV for China, looking very ready for its launch on the Chinese
car market in the first quarter of next year. Fengdu (风度) is a new sub-brand
of Dongfeng Automobile. Their first car was the Fengdu MX6, and a smaller Fengdu MX3 will follow in late
2016.
The Dongfeng Fengdu MX5 is exactly the
same car as the Dongfeng Fengshen AX7 which was launched in October last
year, bar for the grille, headlights, taillights, and bumpers. Fengshen (风神) is another
sub-brand under Dongfeng. Selling two extremely similar cars under two
different brands might look strange, but it is not in China. Many local Chinese
brands do exactly the same thing, most notable Beijing Auto, Zotye, and our
Dongfeng.
Price for the Fengshen AX7 starts at
115.700 yuan and ends at 149.700 yuan. Engines: 147 hp 2.0-liter and a 171 hp 2.3-liter. The
Fengdu MX5 will likely get the 2.0 only, with price ranging from 100.000 to
120.000 yuan.
