Chery is also offering limited-time early-bird trade-in prices. After subsidies, the three versions are priced at 94,900 yuan ($14,000), 105,900 yuan and 115,900 yuan, respectively.

The pricing places the Fulwin T7 firmly in China’s entry-level electric SUV segment, where it will compete with popular models such as the BYD Yuan Plus.

Dimensions and Design

The Fulwin T7 measures 4,570 mm in length, 1,852 mm in width and 1,694 mm in height. It has a 2,700 mm wheelbase and a curb weight of 1,780 kg.

The SUV has a claimed drag coefficient of 0.286, reflecting an aerodynamic-focused exterior design.

Electric Motor and Performance

All three Fulwin T7 variants use a single electric motor producing a maximum output of 178 kW (239 hp) and 275 Nm of peak torque.

The SUV has a claimed top speed of 180 km/h.

Using the same electric motor configuration across the lineup allows the three variants to differentiate primarily through their equipment and technology levels rather than their core powertrain output.

Battery, Range and Charging

All Chery Fulwin T7 variants are equipped with a 65.05 kWh lithium iron phosphate Rhino Battery.

The battery provides a claimed CLTC range of 600 km, while energy consumption is rated at 12.9 kWh per 100 km.

The battery can be charged from 30% to 80% in approximately 20 minutes. The SUV also supports external power discharge of up to 6.6 kW, allowing the vehicle to supply electricity to external devices and equipment.

Smart Cockpit and Infotainment

The Fulwin T7 features an 8.8-inch instrument display and a 15.6-inch 2.5K central touchscreen.

The infotainment system is powered by Chery’s Lingxi Smart Cockpit 2.0 and integrates ByteDance’s Doubao large language model.

The two lower-priced variants use Qualcomm’s 8155 chip, while the range-topping version upgrades to the Qualcomm 8775 chip. The higher-end platform integrates cockpit and driving functions and supports 5G connectivity.

Driver-Assistance Technology

The top-spec Fulwin T7 is equipped with the Falcon 500 driver-assistance system and a sensor package comprising 22 sensors.

The system includes three millimeter-wave radars, seven cameras and 12 ultrasonic radars. Chery says the system supports highway driving assistance as well as more than 300 parking scenarios.

Driver-assistance equipment varies by trim, making the top version the most technology-focused configuration in the lineup.

Safety Features

Chery says high-strength steel accounts for 80% of the Fulwin T7’s body structure.

The SUV uses a cage-style body structure and is equipped with nine airbags, providing a safety-focused specification across the vehicle.

Fulwin Brand Positioning

Fulwin is Chery’s main sub-brand focused on the new energy vehicle market. Its lineup includes sedans and SUVs as well as battery electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles.

The addition of the Fulwin T7 expands the brand’s presence in the compact electric SUV segment and puts it into direct competition with volume-selling models such as the BYD Yuan Plus.
