DFSK EC75

Despite its no-nonsense exterior design, the DFSK EC75 offers a surprisingly upscale interior. Its cabin features a modern, tech-focused layout complemented by a wood-finished dashboard and soft leather door panels. Its cabin provides the driver and his or her passenger with adequate headroom and legroom, while the expansive loading area offers an impressive payload capacity of up to 1.5 tons. Although its seats may not be the plushest out there, they still provide decent cushioning and support for all occupants.

Meanwhile, the driver has access to a digital instrument display and a multi-control steering wheel. This electric commercial vehicle comes with a 10.1-inch HD large screen for entertainment and information accessibility. For added convenience, the EC75 is also fitted with a cooling and heating storage box, a USB Type-C charging port, as well as a wireless fast charger for the driver’s mobile phone. All things considered, this all-electric commercial vehicle’s interior offers a well-rounded blend of functionality, practicality, and modern aesthetic.

The DFSK EC75’s design is defined by a combination of contemporary elements and functional features. It features a modern-looking front end enhanced by a sleek chrome panel connecting the commercial vehicle’s angular headlamps. Adding to its straightforward design is a black grille that reinforces its utilitarian character. And, to complete its front styling, a clean DFSK badge is positioned on its smooth fascia.

Moreover, the sides are equipped with remote-controlled doors, giving the electric commercial vehicle a more upscale touch. The EC75 rides on 16-inch steel wheels fitted with heavy-duty reinforced radial tyres designed to handle demanding road conditions. At the rear, its utilitarian character continues with large rectangular tail lamps and a high-mounted third brake light that improves visibility, especially at night.

In terms of dimensions, the DFSK EC75 measures 5,130 mm in length, 1,860 mm in width, and 2,020 mm in height. This electric commercial vehicle also comes with a 3,200-mm wheelbase and a 170-mm minimum unladen ground clearance.

The DFSK EC75 utilizes a suspension combination of MacPherson Struts (independent-type) at the front and a Leaf Spring (non-independent type) at the rear. Despite its size, the EC75 is surprisingly easy to maneuver around the city. Its suspension setup does a good job of smoothing out bumps and other minor road imperfections, maintaining a composed ride even with a full cargo load. For a commercial vehicle, it provides a commendably comfortable driving experience.

Powering the DFSK EC75 is a 50.38-kWh Lithium Iron Phosphate battery-powered permanent magnet synchronous motor that produces a maximum power output of 70 kW (94 hp) and a maximum torque output of 230 Nm. Its battery offers a CLTC electric range of up to 310 kilometers and supports a DC fast charging time of 20% to 80% in just 45 minutes. This electric commercial vehicle comes mated to a single-speed automatic transmission system and utilizes a front-wheel drivetrain. 

The EC75 proves that practicality does not necessarily mean sluggish performance, as it can confidently overtake slower vehicles on open highways and take on steep rural inclines. Its range works well for everyday urban cargo hauling, although longer provincial trips could require additional planning. 

The DFSK EC75 utilizes discs for both front and rear braking. Its braking setup is supported by an anti-lock braking system with electronic brakeforce distribution, an emergency brake warning, hill-descent control, as well as an electronic stability control system with brake assist and traction control.

This electric commercial vehicle also features a wide array of advanced driver assistance systems, such as forward collision warning, lane departure warning, lane keeping assist, speed limit assist, autonomous emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control. The EC75 also comes with a 360-degree panoramic parking view camera and front and rear parking sensors, among others.

In my opinion, the DFSK EC75 is a game-changer in the country’s commercial vehicle segment. Its combination of electric efficiency, generous cargo capacity, modern technology, and surprisingly comfortable driving dynamics makes it a compelling choice for businesses looking to modernize their daily operations.
