The car comes in 7 body colors. There are three trim levels: Play (63kWh battery, 503km NEDC), Cyber Play (72kWh battery, 580km NEDC), Top Play (88kWh battery, 650km NEDC), all driven by a 160kW 315Nm motor.

The car is highly recognizable with its funky yellow and black color coordination. The size of the Aiways U6 is 4805/1880/1641 mm with a 2800mm wheelbase.

The front face adopts a closed X-shaped design. Its drag coefficient is as low as 0.26cd.

The interior of the Aiways U6 comes with a huge 14.6-inch floating touch screen and a small but ultra-wide 8.2-inch digital instrument cluster. There is a full suite of 27 safety driving functions, including not-so-common features such as AI- cruise, traffic jam assist, and narrow road protection. There is a camera above the A-pillar of the vehicle to monitor the driver while driving and give reminders when the driver experiences fatigue.

Furthermore, the Aiways U6 is equipped with 15 speakers.

The vehicle is built on Aiways’ self-developed pure electric MAS platform, with a maximum power of 160kW (217 horsepower), peak torque of 315Nm, and a 0 – 100km/h acceleration time of fewer than 7 seconds. The Aiways U6 is equipped with CATL’s high energy density CTP (cell-to-pack) battery, with a 650km NEDC cruising range.
