The Dongfeng eπ 008 (pronounced 'e pie'; also known as Yipai 008 and Dongfeng Ace 008) is an extended range and battery electric mid-size SUV produced by Chinese automobile manufacturer Dongfeng Motor Corporation under the Dongfeng eπ (东风奕派) sub-brand. It is the second product of the eπ sub-brand, and was launched in 2024.

Overview

In the fall of 2023, Dongfeng launched the eπ sub-brand, which is dedicated to the production of electric vehicles. The first model was the Dongfeng eπ 007. Later, the eπ 008 model was introduced.[1]

The five-meter-long vehicle was presented in April 2024 at the Beijing Auto Show. Two months later, it went on sale in the Chinese market as a six-seater. A five-seater version followed in October 2024. The drag coefficient of the car is given as 0.268.[2][3]

Slim headlights, matrix taillights and hidden door handles integrated with the lighting section are the hallmarks of the exterior design. The model can be equipped with 20- or 21-inch wheels. The interior also features a large screen and a digital instrument cluster in the center, as well as a wireless charging system for smartphones.
