Built for the everyday

Small footprint. Serious range.

The Dongfeng Box is engineered for the realities of South African city life — compact enough for tight parking, yet with up to 430 km of range so the daily commute, the school run and the weekend escape never feel like a compromise.

Instant electric torque makes it eager off the line, while a low, integrated battery floor keeps it planted and quiet. This is the easiest way into electric ownership, without giving anything up.

Why the Box

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

Rapid DC charging

Charge 30–80% in about 30 minutes, or grab 200 km of range in an 8-minute top-up on a DC fast charger.

Built-in safety

A high-strength body, multiple airbags and modern driver-assistance systems keep every journey secure.

Connected cabin

A crisp central touchscreen, smartphone connectivity and digital driver display put everything within reach.

Class-leading warranty

5-year / 150,000 km vehicle cover, an 8-year / 200,000 km battery warranty and a 5-year service plan.

Low running costs

Electric efficiency means a fraction of the per-kilometre cost of petrol, with far fewer service items.

Clever packaging

A flat floor and tall roofline turn a compact footprint into a genuinely spacious five-seat interior.

Disclosure: Estimates are indicative only, calculated from the manufacturer-claimed CLTC figure for the selected variant. Real-world range varies with speed, temperature, terrain, load, battery age and driving style — highway driving at 120 km/h can reduce range meaningfully. This tool is not a guarantee of range. Confirm homologated figures with the dealership.

Dongfeng dedicated electric vehicle platform
Engineered around the battery

A platform built for electric.

The Box rides on a dedicated EV architecture with the battery integrated low between the axles. The result is a low centre of gravity, a flat, genuinely spacious floor, and a quiet, planted feel through town.

Instant torque, tidy dimensions and a tight turning circle make it effortless to live with — the city car, reimagined for electric.
