The Autopotok telegram channel claims that the Chinese brand has received a Vehicle Type Approval certificate for a light all-metal van with a semi-bonnet layout and front-wheel drive. At first, we plan to offer a variant with a gross weight of 3.97 tons, but in the future they will offer modernized vehicles with a gross weight of less than 3.5 tons.
Dongfeng Yufeng is a family of light duty commercial vans, vans and chassis. In terms of dimensions and form factor, the five-meter car is close to Sollers Atlant, GAZelle and Sobol, however, the new Dongfeng comes with both front- and rear-wheel drive, single or double rear axle.
In China, 28 (!) Various modifications are available with a starting price of 107,800 yuan (1.43 million rubles), however, they plan to bring an all-metal front-wheel drive van with a cargo compartment volume of 11.68 cubic meters and a load capacity of 1.5 tons to our country. The novelty will have a 2.3-liter turbodiesel (143 forces, 380 Nm) and a 6-speed “mechanics”.
So far, Russian prices for Dongfeng Yufeng start from 3.6 million rubles, but after the start of official deliveries, the price list may change. Competitors assembled in Russia from Sollers and the GAZ Group come only with rear-wheel drive, but they belong to category B and are cheaper.
