Junfeng Company, in collaboration with Dongfeng Group's "VOYAH" factory, has launched a new pure electric long-range mid-size SUV, the Voyah "Courage". With a maximum range of up to 901KM, a unique body design, an extended wheelbase, Huawei's intelligent driving system, and an 800V platform, it boasts powerful performance. Positioned below the Voyah FREE, this model emphasizes cost-effectiveness and is expected to become a dark horse in the mid-size pure electric SUV market. It is also anticipated to become the brightest new star in Junfeng Company's overseas market.
Extreme Short Body and Long Wheelbase Design
The exterior design of the Voyah "Courage" is undoubtedly one of its major highlights. From the previously released declaration images, it can be seen that the body lines of the Couirage are smooth and powerful, resembling the sharpness of a "blade mecha". The new car measures 4725mm in length, 1900mm in width, and 1636mm (1653mm) in height, with a wheelbase of 2900mm. These dimensions not only surpass the best-selling Tesla Model Y in its class but also provide passengers with a spacious and comfortable seating experience.
At the same time, the teaser images make it clear that the extreme wheelbase-to-length ratio is an exclusive feature of the electric platform. The rear of the car features taillights that echo the design of the headlights, and the "Courage" logo in the lower right corner subtly reveals its mysterious identity. Additionally, the inclusion of uniquely designed wheels, a roof spoiler, a ducktail trunk design, and diffusers not only enhances the vehicle's aerodynamic performance but also further boosts its dynamic and stylish appearance.
Huawei Intelligent Driving and 800V Platform
Previously, Voyah announced a strategic cooperation agreement with Huawei. As a result, the Voyah "VCourage" is expected to be equipped with Huawei's intelligent cabin and the QianKun ADS 3.0 intelligent driving system, providing drivers with a smarter and more convenient driving experience. Therefore, the new car's performance in terms of in-car technology and intelligent driving is highly anticipated.
In terms of three phase electric technology ,thanks to the application of the 800V silicon carbide platform, Voyah is one of only two domestic car manufacturers capable of fully independently developing a silicon carbide platform. The Voyah "Courage" features an 800V high-efficiency electric drive system, achieving an operating efficiency of 92.5% under the CLTC standard, which is 0.5% higher than the industry's typical 800V electric drive efficiency. Additionally, according to the declaration information, the new car will be driven by two 160kW motors of the same model, delivering a total power output of 320kW, resulting in very strong performance.
Competitive product comparison and price prediction
Compared to other mid-size pure electric SUVs in its class, the Voyah "Courage" boasts competitive advantages in exterior design, power performance, and intelligent driving capabilities. Particularly noteworthy is its wheelbase, which at 2900mm even exceeds that of the best-selling Tesla Model Y in its class. Coupled with smoother roof lines, this suggests that its interior space performance is likely to be even more outstanding.
In terms of pricing, considering the positioning and configuration level of the Voyah "Courage" and comparing it with strong competitors like the newly launched ONVO L60 (priced at 219,900 RMB) and the XPeng G6 (starting at 199,900 RMB), the Voyah "Courage" is expected to align closely with these models. Therefore, we anticipate its price range to be around 26,000 to 32,000 USD. This price range fits well within the current market pricing system for mid-size pure electric SUVs. Combined with the support of Huawei's QianKun ADS 3.0, the new car will also have strong market competitiveness.
As the latest product of the collaboration between Dongfeng Group and Huawei, the Voyah "Courage" will undoubtedly emerge as a dark horse in the mid-size pure electric SUV market, thanks to its sharp exterior design, spacious interior, powerful performance, and intelligent driving technology. Junfeng Company will continuously update information related to the Zhiying model in real time, providing overseas customers with the latest and highest-quality products. We look forward to the outstanding performance of the Voyah Courage in the global market.
