What is the ground clearance of the Fengguang 580?
2 Answers
The ground clearance of the Fengguang 580 is 200mm. The function of the car chassis is to support and install the car engine and its various components and assemblies, forming the overall shape of the car, receiving the power from the engine to enable the car to move and ensure normal driving. The chassis is mainly composed of the transmission system, running system, steering system, and braking system. The Fengguang 580 is an SUV under Dongfeng, with body dimensions of 4690mm in length, 1845mm in width, and 1715mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2780mm. The Fengguang 580 adopts a new family-style design, with the front face featuring a new family-style design concept. The blackened air intake grille is decorated with three chrome trim strips, and the upward-slanting headlights are connected to the air intake grille, making the front face of the car more refined.
As a seasoned SUV driver, I think the ground clearance of the Dongfeng Fengguang 580 is about 190mm, which is quite reasonable as it balances both urban commuting and light off-road needs. I mostly drive in suburban areas, and the higher ground clearance helps avoid scrapes when encountering rough roads, making me feel steady and secure. However, if it's too high, the body can feel a bit unstable, especially when taking turns at higher speeds, so it's necessary to slow down and be cautious. Overall, the 190mm height is sufficient for daily life and weekend trips. I recommend regularly checking the underbody protection plate to ensure it hasn't been damaged by stones, and using a water gun to clean off mud and debris during car washes to extend its lifespan. For beginners, this height also provides better visibility and more confidence while driving, but be mindful of parking angles to avoid scraping.
