Start with what the Dongfeng Fengshen A9 is: a 4-door saloon with 1.8 , built from 2016 to 2019, as electrification stopped being an experiment and the crossover took every market. What it meant takes a little longer.
Under the skin
The engine is 1.8 . On the scales it comes to 1590 -. Drive goes through a 6-speed automatic. The layout matters: the engine drives the front wheels, the packaging choice that gives a small car a big cabin. The wheelbase is 2900 mm. These are manufacturer figures carried by Wikipedia and Wikidata, not road-test measurements.
In context
In the Dongfeng line-up the Dongfeng Fengshen A9 has a clear place: the factory was Wuhan, China (Dongfeng Peugeot-Citroën). The cars a buyer would have weighed it against include the Chevrolet Bolt, the Ferrari 488, the Chevrolet Camaro. Nearby in the Dongfeng catalogue sit the Dongfeng Fengshen L7 and the Front Drive Motor.
