Dongfeng 007

Dongfeng 007 is an electric fastback sedan with three South African derivatives, quoted CLTC ranges from 530 to 620 km and outputs from 160 to 400 kW.

The Dongfeng 007 is the long, low and performance-oriented member of the South African range. Its 4,880 mm length, 1,895 mm width, 1,460 mm height and 2,915 mm wheelbase make it a very different proposition from the BOX or 06. It is a five-door fastback sedan aimed at a driver who wants an EV with a substantial road presence, a long-distance range claim and a more expressive drivetrain menu. The proportions should appeal to buyers who prefer a low seating position and a large-car wheelbase, but they also make a real parking test essential in narrow basements and older suburban driveways. Three local derivatives create a meaningful power and range ladder. E1 530 is the official entry point at R799,000, using a 58.4 kWh battery, 160 kW, 310 Nm, rear-wheel drive and a 530 km CLTC claim. E1 620 uses a 73.5 kWh battery, 200 kW, 320 Nm and rear-wheel drive, with its name reflecting the 620 km CLTC claim. The flagship E2 540 also has a 73.5 kWh battery but switches the focus: dual motors, all-wheel drive, 400 kW, 640 Nm and a claimed 0-100 km/h time of 3.9 seconds, with a 540 km CLTC range. That makes E2 a performance choice rather than the simple range leader. The price hierarchy needs transparency. Dongfeng South Africa publishes the R799,000 starting point for E1 530. Public authorised-dealer cash listings checked on 30 September 2026 placed E1 620 at R859,000 and E2 540 at R929,000. Those upper figures should be reconfirmed on a written quotation because they are not presented as a current OEM retail table on the model page. The decision is more nuanced than “choose the fastest”: E1 620 supplies the longest official range claim and 200 kW rear-drive character, while E2 delivers a dramatic performance step but reduces the CLTC claim by 80 km relative to E1 620. All three derivatives use a single-speed reduction gear, but their driving character will be distinct. Rear-wheel-drive E1 cars are likely to be the logical place to start for an owner who wants a long-legged electric sedan without buying more power than normal road use requires. E2’s 400 kW and 640 Nm deserve respect, not just a quick acceleration demonstration. Prospective owners should ask about tyre costs, insurance and the effect of using that performance regularly before assuming the premium is limited to the purchase price. As with the other Dongfeng EVs, CLTC range is a planning reference. The 007’s quoted figures are useful because the battery and drive differences are clearly identified, yet no driver should convert a laboratory cycle into a guarantee. Highway travel, air-conditioning, elevation and fast driving all influence energy use. The local material confirms AC and DC charging support but does not publish every derivative’s power and time figures, so a buyer planning regular inter-city travel should get the exact charging specification, connector type and any included cables in writing. This is not an off-road sedan. Its attraction lies in a long wheelbase, a fastback body and the choice between rear-drive range and all-wheel-drive performance. Dongfeng states a five-year or 150,000 km vehicle warranty, a first-owner battery headline of ten years with unlimited kilometres followed by eight years or 200,000 km, and an eight-year or 120,000 km service plan. That gives the range an ownership framework, but it does not replace the usual diligence around finance, charging access, insurance and the support network nearest the owner.

Where the Dongfeng 007 Fits Best

A practical view of the buyer and roads this model is best suited to.

Who buys this

The 007 is for a buyer who wants a large electric fastback rather than an SUV and can live with a low-slung body in daily parking. E1 530 suits a value-conscious long-range shopper, E1 620 prioritises the longest quoted range, and E2 540 fits an enthusiast who can make genuine use of all-wheel-drive performance.

City
The 007 can be used every day, but its 4,880 mm length asks more of a congested parking area than a compact EV. Test the turning space, bonnet visibility, ramp angles and parking cameras in the places where it will be used. The electric powertrain itself is excellent for stop-start work: quiet response and no conventional gear shifts. The more serious city question is whether the owner wants this much car for short trips. E1 530 may be the sensible answer when the prestige of the body and an official 530 km CLTC claim matter more than maximum output.
Highway
Highway work is central to the 007’s appeal, particularly for E1 620 with its 620 km CLTC claim. Yet range needs the same caution as every EV: high speeds, weather, load and gradient move the real result. E1 530’s 160 kW and E1 620’s 200 kW should feel more than adequate for conventional road use; E2’s 400 kW makes fast overtaking effortless but puts more responsibility on the driver and may increase tyre and insurance costs. Plan real charging stops on the usual route because the local source material does not publish a complete power-and-time table for every grade.
Off-Road
The 007 has no low-range gearing, underbody trail credentials or published wading capability. All-wheel drive on E2 is designed around road performance and traction, not a substitute for a dedicated off-road system. Treat gravel roads as a condition and tyre question, keep clear of sharp rocks beneath the battery and confirm the exact wheel-and-tyre combination before a long unsealed route. Its natural environment is surfaced road, not a deep-rut trail.

Dongfeng 007 — Should You Buy It?

A compelling electric fastback range when the buyer chooses range, rear-drive character or performance deliberately.

E1 530 opens the 007 range at a confirmed official price and may be enough for a buyer who wants the body and a 530 km CLTC claim without stretching for the flagship. E1 620 is the long-range sweet spot on published figures, while E2 540 is the performance-led alternative with a serious 400 kW/640 Nm proposition. The choice should begin with a normal route and normal running costs, not the largest number on the specification sheet. That makes an honest test drive and quotation comparison essential.

What's Good
  • ✓Three distinct range and performance roles
  • ✓E1 620 quotes 620 km CLTC range
  • ✓E2 540 offers 400 kW and 640 Nm
  • ✓Rear-wheel drive available on both E1 derivatives
  • ✓E1 530 has official R799,000 starting price
  • ✓Long 2,915 mm wheelbase
  • ✓Five-door fastback practicality
  • ✓18- and 19-inch wheel choices
  • ✓Dongfeng service and warranty headline
Watch Out For
  • ✕Large footprint for city parking
  • ✕Upper prices require dealer-quotation confirmation
  • ✕CLTC figures are laboratory references
  • ✕Complete local charge-rate detail is not published for every derivative
  • ✕E2 performance can raise tyre and insurance costs
  • ✕Low sedan body is not trail-oriented
  • ✕Ground clearance is not published in the local material reviewed
  • ✕Battery chemistry is not specified on the local 007 table
  • ✕Buyer should test actual fastback rear access and luggage needs

Dongfeng 007 FAQs

Current recommended retail prices for the Dongfeng 007 run from R799,000 to R929,000, depending on the derivative. Compare the exact trim before calculating finance because options, insurance and dealer charges can change the final monthly cost.

The current south african range comprises 007 E1 530, 007 E1 620, 007 E2 540. Prices and equipment are shown by derivative so buyers can compare the actual local range rather than specifications from another market.

The listed ground clearance for the Dongfeng 007 is 150 mm. Use that number as a practical comparison point against similar cars, especially if you regularly deal with steep driveways, gravel roads or uneven parking areas.
