I just test drove the Dongfeng Fengguang 580. This SUV is primarily equipped with a 1.5-liter turbocharged gasoline engine, typically model SFG15TA. Technically, it delivers a maximum power of about 110 kW and a peak torque of around 220 Nm, featuring direct fuel injection and DVVT technology to enhance fuel efficiency. The driving experience is quite responsive, with strong acceleration from a standstill and smooth highway cruising; fuel consumption is well-controlled, averaging 7 to 8 liters per 100 km, making city driving hassle-free. Compared to other SUVs, the downside is slightly louder noise during cold starts, but overall reliability is decent. Personally, I think it's suitable for daily commuting and small family trips, with no major issues even after prolonged use, and simple maintenance with good quality oil.
I'm an ordinary car owner and have been driving the Fengon 580 for two years, equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine. For daily commuting, the power feels sufficient, with no sluggishness during acceleration, especially noticeable when overtaking—the push-back sensation is quite evident. The fuel consumption is considerate, averaging around 8 liters in the city and dropping to just over 6 liters on the highway, saving me a lot on fuel costs. In terms of maintenance, the engine design is straightforward, with minor servicing costing just a few hundred yuan. It’s also reliable on long drives, with no breakdowns so far. The spacious interior combined with the engine's effortless output makes family trips and carrying luggage hassle-free. The only minor complaint is a slight vibration at idle, but it doesn’t affect comfort once you get used to it. Overall, it offers great value for money and is ideal for practical buyers.
