Additionally, we offer an overview of the full specifications, an image gallery, detailed information about charging performance, and some online reviews. Our sections include:

Performance

The Dongfeng VIGO 51.87 kWh has a maximum power of 120 kW (163 hp / 161 bhp) and a total torque of 230 Nm (170 lb-ft). It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in 7.8 seconds and reaches a top speed of 150 km/h (93 mph).

Battery, Range, and Charging

The high-capacity battery has a gross capacity of 51.9 kWh and a net usable capacity of 50.0 kWh, providing a 1.9 kWh buffer (3.6%) for battery protection.

The Lithium-Ion battery utilizes LFP technology, which offers advantages and disadvantages compared to typical NCA/NMC batteries.

Under the WLTP (Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure) standard, the vehicle's range varies between 340 to 339 km (211-211 miles), depending on the specific configuration and options, such as wheel size. Larger wheels can increase energy consumption and subsequently reduce the overall range.

The vehicle's energy consumption is rated at 14.7 kWh/100 km for the base model and 14.7 kWh/100 km for the top-tier model under the WLTP test cycle.

For more details about the range, see real-world data and range listings on this model’s range and consumption page.

The vehicle supports fast DC charging with a maximum power of 167 kW. Charging from 0% to 100% takes approximately 66 minutes, while a typical 10% to 80% charge takes about 25 minutes with an average charging speed of 83 kW.

Considering an additional 5 minutes for each charging stop due to driving interruptions, the optimal charging range is from 3% to 52%. This results in an effective charging speed, including time lost, of 85 kW, with each charging session taking about 17 minutes and 20 seconds.

In a 1000 km challenge at a constant speed of 120 km/h (75 mph) with an assumed consumption rate of 22 kWh/100 km, the trip would take about 10 hours and 21 minutes, needing seven charging stops from 3% to 52%, totaling 121 minutes of charging time.

Onboard Charger
