This model has INSANE price: quality ratio, 10-80% in 15 min and +610 km for the 870km long range version is stunning. Also LiDAR and only 225.000 for the standard car with 688km range, usually the standard range car in the sedan market has like 550km and the long range has like 700km, this sedan beats every spec of every other sedan in its price class. With 0-100 in 2.84 it is only .3 slower than a LOTUS EMEYA, I believe it ZEEKR 007 even going to eat up a large portion of LOTUS customers. Almost same specs, if not better for a car that is like half the price. I really hope this car will succeed, imo it is time that BYD market share will shrink, because to be fair many competitors have far superior products.
Yes, I hope this car and car company succeed. I would LOVE to own this car!! I hope Chinese EV’s become available in America. Perhaps a factory in Mexico or Canada. I’m sure there is a way for MOST Chinese EV companies can come together, even collaborate with Tesla to standardize many things for competitive prices, while preserving brand independence.
688km(CLTC) and 870km(CLTC)?? Why not EPA or WLTP? The range numbers in real road driving will be significantly lesser.
It’s a Chinese standard, WLTP you find mainly in EU, EPA in US. https://carnewschina.com/2023/05/20/the-main-misconception-about-the-cltc-range/
hoping to get EV in US but only decent option in US is Tesla and my friends have many service stories
