Presented at the Chengdu show in November 2019, the Fengon ix7 (codenamed "F517") is the flagship model of the DFSK range.
[1] The mechanics of the ix7 are derived from that of the more compact ix5 but with a longer wheelbase and widened track, and is designed together with the BorgWarner to be able to also adopt all-wheel drive.
Aesthetically, the car has the same stylistic family feeling adopted by the more compact ix5 but with the bodywork typical of seven-seater SUVs, the front characterized by the large grille (chromed or with black strips) that extends from the hood to the bumpers and headlights integrate an LED.
[1] At 4.93 meters long, the ix7 shares several components as the smaller ix5 but adopts both the front and all-wheel drive developed by BorgWarner.
All models have six airbags, ABS and EBD, stability and traction control, automatic emergency braking, lane keeping and fatigue detector as standard.
