If James Bond had to drive an electric car, he would choose the Dongfeng eπ 007. And no, it’s not just that intelligenceThe secret agent code can be found in the model name of the electric vehicle.
Also pay attention to the part before 007: eπ. Yes, you can see that clearly. This electric car has the Pi symbol in its name. Why China’s Dongfeng thought this was a good idea is a mystery.
EV for the Chinese James Bond
What can the British spy actually expect from the electric car? No ejection seats, just massage chairs. And not armored doors, but double doors. You can unlock this using facial recognition.

We are particularly familiar with upward-opening doors from super sports car brands such as McLaren and Lamborghini, but on a four-door sedan it is a very special sight. Although it is of course also possible at Tesla.
Another trick of the electric car
However, the Dongfeng eπ 007 can still pull off a trick. At the touch of a button, the electric vehicle’s digital instrument panel folds away and a smaller panel appears in its place, providing you with only the most important vehicle information. These are all James Bond-worthy features.
At the end of a long day of shooting villains, you, as a secret agent, need some relaxation. Luckily, this is possible thanks to the soothing mood lighting and calm music. The EV has an extensive audio system with no fewer than 20 speakers.
Specifications and price of the Dongfeng eπ 007
If this electric car is actually to replace the Aston Martin, it will have to happen quickly. The most powerful variant delivers 545 hp and 640 Nm of torque with two electric motors. This means that James Bond sprints from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in 3.9 seconds. That should be enough. However, the spy has to look for an electric charging station after a maximum of 540 kilometers.

The price for the electric car in China starts at 20,600 euros. A bargain, it seems. Please note that you will receive the entry-level version of the EV for this. This is only rear-wheel drive and has to make do with 218 hp and 310 Nm of torque. The 0 to 100 time for this variant is a less impressive 6.8 seconds. On the other hand, despite the smaller battery, this version gets almost as far with a full battery.
