Overview
The Dongfeng 007 is a five-seat compact executive electric sedan for buyers who want long claimed range or serious all-wheel-drive performance. This Mk1 generation launches in 2026, with prices starting from RM169,888. The line-up spans a 268 hp rear-wheel-drive Long Range RWD Premium and a 536 hp AWD Prime.
007 in 2026 — what's new
The Dongfeng 007 enters 2026 as a new Mk1 model with two versions: the Long Range RWD Premium and AWD Prime. The latest development is the opening of the Dongfeng by Carro PJ Midtown showroom, where the 007 is on display. No later mechanical, battery or range update is indicated, so the range carries on with its 73.48 kWh battery in both variants.

Which variant to buy
Most buyers should choose the RM169,888 Long Range RWD Premium. Its 268 hp output is paired with the line-up’s longer 650 km claimed range, and it costs RM26,000 less than the RM195,888 AWD Prime. Pay more for the AWD Prime only if 536 hp and all-wheel drive matter more than distance between charges; its claimed range falls to 463 km. Both use the same 73.48 kWh battery, single-ratio automatic transmission and five-seat cabin.

Verdict
The 007 gives buyers a clear choice between range and outright performance. The RWD’s 650 km claimed range is the more rational headline figure, while the AWD brings 536 hp at a substantial RM26,000 increase and with a 187 km claimed-range penalty. At RM169,888, the entry 007 costs more than the Tesla Model 3, BYD Seal 6 and Aion ES, but slightly undercuts the BYD Seal.
