Dongfeng Nissan opens NX7 PHEV orders: ~198 miles electric range, ~$20,000
Dongfeng Nissan opened early orders for the NX7 plug-in hybrid (PHEV), claiming up to 320 km (about 198 miles) of all-electric driving from a 40 kWh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery at a price of roughly $20,000. Both the range and the price are the company’s own announced figures at the start of pre-orders, not independently tested results or confirmed final trim pricing, and the report gives no delivery timeline or market availability beyond the Chinese order book.
Context: big-battery PHEVs and the NX7’s earlier specs
A plug-in hybrid (PHEV) pairs a gasoline engine with a grid-chargeable battery, so a larger pack lets more of a driver’s miles happen on electricity alone; the NX7’s 40 kWh lithium iron phosphate (LFP) pack is unusually large for the segment, and LFP chemistry trades some energy density for lower cost and longer cycle life. Earlier coverage of the Dongfeng Nissan NX7 described a 40.95 kWh battery with 225 km of CLTC electric range, and CarNewsChina reported that pre-sales opened on November 13 across three trims priced from 129,900 to 149,900 yuan (about $19,400–$22,400), with a formal launch scheduled for the Guangzhou Auto Show on November 27. The roughly 320 km figure in the current report is higher than that earlier number, and the item does not explain the difference.
