It’s raining electric vehicles (EV) in Singapore. In yet another sign that Singapore’s love affair with electric vehicles is gaining serious momentum, Chinese automotive maker Dongfeng Motors has rolled out its latest offering, the Dongfeng Box, onto local streets. Brought in exclusively by Volt Auto, this new EV is poised to make waves among Singaporean drivers seeking a balance between style, practicality and eco-conscious driving. With nearly a third of new car registrations in Singapore being electric this year, the Dongfeng Box’s arrival couldn’t be better timed.
Known in China as the Dongfeng Nammi 01, the Dongfeng Box is much more than just a compact EV – it’s a symbol of the future of urban mobility. The car comes loaded with cutting-edge technology, including the world’s first Mach Power 10-in-1 system, designed to integrate performance, connectivity, and safety into one cohesive package.
While Singapore has already seen a parade of Chinese EV brands entering the market, the Dongfeng Box brings a unique flair. From its frameless doors to its floating central control panel, this is a vehicle that makes a statement on the road. It’s not just a car; it’s an experience. With customisable ambient lighting and a crystal-clear 12.8-inch floating central screen, it’s clear that the Dongfeng Box is designed with the modern driver in mind.
The Dongfeng Box has been engineered for practicality, making it an ideal choice for the city’s bustling roads. Built on the Quantum Architecture Platform 3, this EV promises enhanced safety, superior driving dynamics, and impressive energy efficiency. Whether you’re navigating the CBD’s tight streets or heading out for a weekend getaway, the Dongfeng Box offers a smooth, comfortable ride with its reclining front seats and spacious boot.
For Singapore’s increasingly eco-conscious drivers, the car’s eco-credentials are hard to ignore. The Dongfeng Box is designed to meet the needs of those looking to reduce their carbon footprint without sacrificing performance or style. With its long-range capabilities and efficient charging options, this EV is more than ready to tackle Singapore’s urban challenges.
Volt Auto’s Managing Director, Soh Ming, captured the sentiment behind the launch: “The Dongfeng Box is a vehicle that’s designed to suit roads with evolving urban mobility challenges, making it very well suited for Singaporean roads.”
Indeed, the modern design, technology and affordable price point – starting at S$148,888 during the launch promotion – position the Dongfeng Box as an attractive option for Singaporeans looking to upgrade to a greener mode of transport.
And with a variety of eye-catching colours available, such as Icy Blue, Aurora Purple and Sunlit Green, the Dongfeng Box certainly isn’t skimping on style. Whether you’re into vibrant hues or prefer a more subtle Twilight White, there’s a shade to match your personality.
As Volt Auto looks ahead with plans to introduce more models, including the Dongfeng eπ 007, it’s clear that Singapore’s EV revolution shows no signs of slowing down.
