A ¥50,000-class pure electric commuter car—how does it achieve both “smart” and “fun”?

As China’s small pure EV market continues to heat up, multiple strong products have poured into the ¥50,000–70,000 price range. Geely Xingyuan, with its relatively high market popularity, has become an alternative for many consumers; while the Dongfeng Yipai Nammi 01 Smart Fun Edition, as a great and intelligent national car, competes differently with Xingyuan through its large space, high-spec intelligent cockpit, and comprehensive comfort and safety configurations. This article selects corresponding versions of the two models and objectively compares them in terms of space, intelligence, comfort configuration, and usage scenarios to help users find the model that suits them.

The Dongfeng Yipai Nammi 01 Smart Fun Edition has an official guide price of ¥59,800–79,800. During the autumn car-buying campaign, it offers a limited-time red packet subsidy starting at ¥6,000, bringing the limited-time red packet price to as low as ¥53,800. It provides two CLTC range versions, 305 km and 430 km, covering different needs for daily commuting and weekend outings. The body dimensions are 4020×1810×1570 mm, with a wheelbase of 2663 mm, five doors and five seats. The exterior adopts a vitality gacha design and offers multiple dopamine-inspired car colors, balancing looks and practicality.

For the Geely Xingyuan, we select the CLTC 310 km Chengfeng Edition as the comparison, as this version is Xingyuan’s main trim. The two models have the same official guide price of ¥71,800. Both cars focus on family commuting, but their product orientations emphasize different aspects.

In terms of space performance, the Nammi 01 Smart Fun Edition has a vehicle width of 1810 mm and a wheelbase of 2663 mm. Its lateral body width advantage is obvious, so when five people are riding, rear left and right passengers will not press against each other. The front seats support a 180° fully flat fold, and the maximum expanded trunk volume is 945 L. Whether for a nap inside the car or for carrying camping gear and large luggage, it can be achieved. The interior has multiple storage designs, including a front trunk, floating island armrest box, and front passenger hook, making it very convenient to store daily small items.

The Geely Xingyuan has body dimensions of 4135×1805×1570 mm and a wheelbase of 2650 mm. Its body length is slightly longer than that of the Nammi 01 Smart Fun Edition, while its wheelbase is slightly shorter. The interior longitudinal space is acceptable, and the rear lateral width is slightly smaller than that of the Nammi 01 Smart Fun Edition; after the seats are folded, its expansion capability also has a certain gap compared with the Nammi 01 Smart Fun Edition. It is likewise equipped with a front trunk, but the interior storage layout differs from that of the Nammi 01 Smart Fun Edition.

In the intelligent cockpit section, the Nammi 01 Smart Fun Edition is equipped with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip, a 15.6-inch 2.5K central control screen + 8.88-inch LCD instrument panel, dual AI large-model voice interaction, support for continuous wake-free commands, Bluetooth 6.0 keyless Bluetooth key, automatic unlocking when approaching the vehicle, and automatic locking when getting off. The whole vehicle supports OTA upgrades, and the smoothness and interaction richness of the infotainment system are impressive.

The Geely Xingyuan, by contrast, is equipped with a basic infotainment system. Its screen size and chip computing power have a certain gap compared with the Nammi 01 Smart Fun Edition 305Ultra version. Voice interaction only supports basic commands and does not have dual AI large-model capabilities. In multitasking processing and infotainment playability, the Nammi 01 Smart Fun Edition forms a differentiated advantage.

For safety and comfort configurations, using the Nammi 01 Smart Fun Edition 305Ultra version as the comparison benchmark, it is fully equipped with 17-inch wheels, 540° panoramic transparent imaging, and driver’s seat ventilation, heating, and memory functions. The transparent chassis function of the 540° imaging can effectively help avoid underbody scrapes in old residential communities, narrow alleys, and underground parking garages; driver’s seat ventilation, heating, and memory can adapt to year-round use, cooling down quickly in summer and warming up quickly in winter; the vehicle’s NVH has been specially optimized, with 28 sound-absorbing cotton pads combined with thickened soundproof glass, delivering excellent interior quietness.

The Geely Xingyuan is equipped with 16-inch wheels and has no transparent chassis. The two models have different emphases in comfort and safety hardware. The Nammi 01 Smart Fun Edition is richer in seat comfort and passive safety hardware configurations.

In terms of power and range, the Nammi 01 Smart Fun Edition is equipped with the Mach E ten-in-one electric drive, with a peak power of 70 kW, torque of 160 N·m, and a top speed of 140 km/h. The CLTC 305 km version has a 29.5 kWh battery, and fast charging from 30% to 80% at normal temperature takes 30 minutes.

The Geely Xingyuan 310 km version has a motor maximum power of 58 kW, CLTC range of 310 km, and supports fast charging. The differences are mainly concentrated in cockpit intelligence, seat comfort, imaging hardware, and other aspects. In urban commuting, the power performance of the two cars is similar. The Nammi 01 Smart Fun Edition has higher motor power, giving it a certain advantage in high-speed re-acceleration capability.

In terms of car-purchase benefits, the Nammi 01 Smart Fun Edition participates in the policy campaign launched by the Dongfeng Yipai brand, enjoying a limited-time red packet subsidy starting at ¥6,000, bringing the post-subsidy price to as low as ¥53,800. It also offers a 2-year ¥50,000 0-interest financial plan. The first non-operating owner enjoys benefits such as lifetime warranty for the three electric systems and the whole vehicle, making the car-purchase policy very friendly.

Overall, the Geely Xingyuan has its own characteristics in exterior design and chassis tuning, making it suitable for users who value chassis quality. The Dongfeng Yipai Nammi 01 Smart Fun Edition, positioned as a great and intelligent national car, pays more attention to the real pain points of family users. With large space, a high-spec intelligent cockpit, and comprehensive comfort and safety configurations, it is more suitable for family users who often travel fully loaded, value cockpit experience, and go camping on weekends.

There is no absolute good or bad between the two models; it is enough to choose according to your own usage scenarios. If you pursue cockpit configuration and space expansion capability, the Nammi 01 Smart Fun Edition is worth experiencing at a store.
