Dongfeng Friday
Breaking Barriers to EV Freedom
Coming Soon
Meet the Dongfeng Friday
The Dongfeng Friday is a midsize SUV that drives like an electric car every day, without the range anxiety. Its 120 kW electric motor powers the wheels at all times, while a 1.5-litre petrol engine acts purely as a generator, topping up the battery whenever you need to go further.
Charge at home for up to 200 km of pure electric driving on your daily commute, or fill up and head out of town with up to 1300 km of total range. The Friday is arriving soon at Dongfeng Milnerton - book a test drive to be among the first to experience it.
Comfort Meets Technology
Central Control Screen
A 14.6-inch rotating touchscreen puts navigation, media and vehicle settings at your fingertips, paired with an 8.8-inch digital cluster and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Front Row Space
A clean, uncluttered dashboard and supportive front seats create a calm place to drive, with a 10-way power driver seat featuring memory, ventilation and massage on the Exclusive.
Large Rear Space
A 2715 mm wheelbase frees up generous rear legroom for passengers, while the 480 L boot expands to 1480 L with the rear seats folded.
Panoramic Sunroof
Available on the Exclusive, the panoramic power sunroof floods the cabin with natural light, with a power sunshade to keep things cool on hot Cape Town days.
