Dongfeng Nissan has begun accepting pre-orders for its N7 electric sedan, offering pre-order benefits, including a 999 CNY deposit that converts to 3,000 CNY toward purchase, ahead of April 27 launch.

Beyond the deposit incentive, trade-in bonuses range from 5,000 CNY (non-Nissan owners) to 10,000 CNY (existing Nissan owners).

The brand has initiated nationwide deliveries, with demo vehicles reaching 89 delivery hubs and 400 showrooms this week.

Positioned as a "premium-comfort" mid-size EV priced under 200,000 CNY, the model debuts four key technologies: AI-powered zero-gravity seats, anti-motion-sickness engineering, Momenta’s end-to-end ADAS, and the NISSAN OS infotainment platform.

The N7 marks the first vehicle under Dongfeng Nissan’s new EV architecture, targeting family buyers with a 4,930 mm in length and 2,915 mm wheelbase that rivals larger sedans.

Its design blends Nissan’s V-Motion grille with minimalist proportions, while the interior integrates a 15.6-inch narrow-bezel display, intelligent refrigerator, and premium audio—positioning it as a "mobile living room."

Wang Qian, general manager of Dongfeng Nissan’s NEV division, emphasized the rollout as "a commitment to trust" during a shipment ceremony in Guangzhou.

The N7’s AI seats use 49 sensors and 19 airbags to customize support for different body types, certified by China Automotive Technology for motion-sickness reduction.

Its 8295-powered cockpit features DeepSeek-integrated voice assistant "Xiao Ni" for multi-scenario interaction.

The Momenta-developed ADAS handles highway navigation and urban driving, including memorized navigation for repeat routes, remote parking via smartphone, and automated parking even in ultra-narrow spaces..

Dongfeng highlights the N7’s battery safety, having passed China's stringent multi-cell puncture tests without thermal runaway..

The model aims to reset expectations for joint-venture EVs by combining domestic tech partnerships with global manufacturing standards.

The N7 enters China’s crowded sub-200,000 CNY EV segment as joint ventures intensify efforts to reclaim share from domestic brands.

Its emphasis on family-oriented tech and comfort could appeal to buyers prioritizing practicality over performance—a group of buyers that Geely and BYD have long catered to .
