Dongfeng
Fengnuo E300 EV
The Dongfeng Fengnuo
E300 electric sedan debuted on the 2016 Beijing Auto Show. ‘Fengnuo’ is a sound translation of ‘Fluence’, which relates to theRenault
Fluence, and more specifically to the electric Renault
Fluence Z.E., where this E300 is based on. The front
has been redesigned with a new bumper and grille, but they are otherwise the
same.
The interior
is exactly the same as in the Fluence Z.E. bar for the Dongfeng badge on the
wheel.
The Fengnuo
E300 is manufactured in China by the Dongfeng-Renault joint venture, but it will only be sold
under the Dongfeng name. Power comes from an electric motor with 94 Hp and
226 Nm, mated to a 22kWh battery.
Range is 185 kilometer which is very short
even for Chinese standards, even relatively low-tech locally developed electric
cars have a range of at least 200 kilometer these days, and usually more.
