2021 Boyue models do not come with ambient lighting across the entire lineup. Ambient Lighting: Ambient lighting in a car serves as decorative illumination, typically in colors like red, blue, or green. If the Boyue had ambient lighting, it could make the cabin more vibrant at night, enhancing the atmosphere and creating a cozy interior ambiance. However, it's important to note that the lighting colors should not interfere with the driver's normal and safe operation of the vehicle. Boyue: The Boyue PRO, hailed as China's "Three-Good SUV," officially debuted in Changchun. The all-new Boyue PRO is available in six variants with two engine options: 1.5TD and 1.8TD, with an official price range of 98,800 to 156,800 yuan. As a "cloud-intelligent SUV," the Boyue PRO, following the Boyue's pioneering role in ushering in a new era of intelligent connectivity in Chinese automobiles, once again leads the forefront of automotive intelligence in China. It defines new standards for intelligent vehicles in China across four key areas: automotive-grade chips, intelligent interaction, cloud manufacturing, and intelligent safety. For its core components—chassis, engine, and transmission—the Boyue PRO benefits from technological empowerment by luxury brands Volvo and Lotus, achieving the highest standards among Chinese brands.

My Boyue Pro comes with ambient lighting, which is a standard feature in the high-end version. It has light strips designed on the door panels and center console, with adjustable colors offering around a dozen options. The ambient lighting creates a fantastic atmosphere when driving at night, making the entire cabin feel exceptionally cozy. It's also very convenient to adjust while driving—just use the buttons near the steering wheel to switch colors without needing to distract yourself by looking at the center screen. However, it's worth noting that the base model might not include this feature, so it's best to check the specifications before purchasing. If you enjoy this kind of ambiance, I recommend going for the high-end version to save hassle, as retrofitting it later would require dismantling door panels and might pose safety risks if the wiring isn't done properly. Additionally, I've found the ambient lighting particularly useful during long-distance drives—the soft, non-glaring light makes it easier to find things inside the car.

The ambient lighting feature in the Boyue Pro varies by specific model. Both the 1.5T top trim and 1.8T high-end models come with it as standard. The light strips are distributed along the four door armrests and below the center console, offering a rich color palette that automatically changes with driving modes—for example, switching to red in Sport mode. Many owners opt for higher trims specifically for this feature, as it adds a strong sense of ceremony to nighttime driving. For lower-trim owners looking to retrofit, OEM parts or professional third-party modifications are options, but it's crucial to choose a reputable shop to ensure wiring safety. OEM parts are recommended to avoid compromising door seals. In practice, the soft lighting significantly helps reduce fatigue, especially making long highway drives easier on the eyes.

I specifically tested the ambient lighting when picking up the car, and the high-end Boyue Pro indeed comes with this feature. The lighting positions are cleverly designed, with halos on the door handles and footwells, and the colors can be freely adjusted. Through the central control settings, you can choose from 64 colors, and it can even change colors with the rhythm of the music. The actual experience is a big plus, especially when picking up friends with blue lighting—they all praised the premium feel. Personally, I think it's particularly appealing to women, significantly enhancing the sense of safety inside the car at night. For low-end model owners looking to retrofit, pay attention to the placement of the control box; it's recommended to place it in the glove compartment to prevent interference. Daily use has shown that a single solid color is the most practical, while multi-color flashing tends to look gaudy.
