Dongfeng Fengxing SX6 is equipped with two engines: a 1.5T turbocharged engine and a 1.6L naturally aspirated engine. The 1.5L turbocharged engine delivers a maximum horsepower of 150ps, a maximum power of 110kw, and a maximum torque of 200nm. This engine can output its maximum power at 5600 rpm and reach peak torque between 2000 to 4400 rpm. Dongfeng Fengxing SX6 is a 7-seater SUV specially designed by Dongfeng Fengxing for the Chinese market, featuring comprehensive and balanced product capabilities. It adopts an innovative 2+2+3 seating layout and boasts four major highlights: "versatile space, intelligent safety, outstanding performance, and superior comfort," making it a practical new flagship in the 7-seater SUV segment.
I remember when I first test drove the Dongfeng Fengxing SX6, the smooth power delivery of the engine left a deep impression on me. It is equipped with a 1.6-liter naturally aspirated engine, technically derived from a collaboration with Mitsubishi, delivering around 120 horsepower, making it suitable for city commuting. This engine is quite fuel-efficient, with a combined fuel consumption of approximately 8 liters per 100 kilometers. The acceleration isn’t the fastest but is adequate for daily use. During everyday driving, I found its noise control to be quite good—it doesn’t get too loud even on the highway. Paired with a six-speed manual or automatic transmission, it’s very user-friendly. The maintenance cost for the engine is also low, with routine servicing costing just a few hundred yuan, and parts are easy to find. If you’re buying a new one, I’d recommend checking the specific model year, as newer versions might have upgraded to a 1.5T turbocharged variant, offering slightly more power. Overall, this car feels like a reliable and practical choice for budget-conscious families.
