Aeolus A60

The Aeolus A60 is a subcompact sedan produced by Dongfeng Motor Corporation under the Dongfeng Fengshen sub-brand.

Overview

The Aeolus A60 sedan debuted during the 2011 Guangzhou Auto Show[2] and production started in December 2011,[3] with the A60 being listed on the market in March 2012.[4]

The Dongfeng Fengshen A60 compact sedan shares the same platform as the later introduced Fengxing Jingyi S50 compact sedan with both cars based on the Nissan Sylphy produced by the Dongfeng-Nissan joint venture in China.[5]

The Dongfeng Fengshen A60 sits above the cheaper yet similarly sized Fengshen S30 subcompact sedan and Fengshen H30 compact hatchback.[6][7]

A second facelift completely changing the front DRG styling was released placing the Fengshen A60 sedan more inline with other Dongfeng Fengshen products.[8]

Electric variants

Dongfeng Fengshen A60 EV

Dongfeng revealed the Fengshen A60 EV alongside the 2015 Fengshen A60 facelift in October 2015. The Fengshen A60 EV is based on the pre-facelift Fengshen A60 sedan, and has a range of 200 km and a 130 km/h top speed with electric motor producing 95 hp and 226 Nm of torque.[9] The Dongfeng Fengshen A60 EV was renamed to Dongfeng Fengshen E70 after the facelift placing the E70 inline with the 2015 facelift of the petrol-powered A60.

Aeolus E70

The Dongfeng Fengshen E70 received a facelift in 2019 and was revealed during the 2019 Shanghai Auto Show. The facelift sets the appearance of the EV further apart from the Fengshen A60 petrol sedan, and now carries the nameplate of the revised English brand name, Aeolus, in the rear.[10]

Aeolus E70 Pro

Another major update was launched in August 2022 named the Aeolus E70 Pro, introducing restyled front and rear bumpers to the overall design. The maximum power output of the E70 Pro is 110 kW with only single motor 2-wheel-drive models available, capable of a CLTC range of 412 km. DC/AC charging is also supported, with 30% to 80% state of charge completed within 30 minutes.[11]
