dx7 is a compact car under the Southeast brand. The relevant introduction about dx7 is as follows: 1. The body dimensions of this car are 4585mm in length, 1900mm in width, and 1718mm in height. 2. dx7 uses two engines, one is a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine, and the other is a 1.8-liter turbocharged engine. 3.

The DX7 was a compact SUV launched by Soueast Motor in 2015, and it was truly the looker among domestic SUVs back then. I remember clearly that its exterior design was crafted by the Italian company Pininfarina, giving it particularly beautiful streamlined contours. Under the hood, it used a Mitsubishi-technology 1.5T engine, which had quite impressive specs for its time. The features were also generous, with the high-end version offering a panoramic sunroof and 360-degree camera. The interior space was well-designed, boasting a 2700mm wheelbase. I drove a friend's older DX7, and its suspension tuning leaned towards comfort, making it especially suitable for family use. Unfortunately, due to fierce competition, the model was gradually phased out around 2020.

My neighbor drives a DX7, the 2016 automatic transmission model. During our chats, he mentioned that the car's biggest feature is its high cost-performance ratio. For a domestic car priced around 100,000 yuan, it comes with features like an electronic parking brake, keyless entry, and rear seats that can be fully reclined to serve as a bed. Although the engine's performance parameters aren't high, it's stable and durable with low maintenance costs. The downside is that the urban fuel consumption can reach around 9 liters. Once, when I accompanied him for maintenance, the mechanic said the DX7's chassis structure borrowed technology from the old Mitsubishi ASX, with a high degree of parts compatibility. Later, I heard that Southeast shifted its focus to the DX9, so this older model gradually faded out.

The DX7 is a flagship product of Soueast, measuring 4585x1900x1718 mm and positioned as a compact SUV. Its powertrain primarily features the 4A91T 1.5T turbo engine paired with a Getrag 6-speed wet dual-clutch transmission. At launch, it emphasized an Italian design + Mitsubishi technology approach, with the top trim offering ADAS driver assistance functions. Compared to its contemporary rival, the Haval H6, its advantage lies in interior space design, though it slightly lags in powertrain smoothness. The sales cycle spanned from 2015 to 2020, with a facelift introducing a new family design for the front grille. In the current used car market, a 2017 model can be purchased for around 30,000 RMB.
