Following the Chinese MIIT’s exposure of the Smart #6 EHD plug-in hybrid sedan, Smart released more official images detailing the design and revealed more key specifications, including the vehicle’s 1,810 km CLTC comprehensive range, 285 km pure electric range, and 320 kW (429 hp) system power output.
The EHD plug-in hybrid system onboard the vehicle is built based on Geely’s NordThor Hybrid 2.0 technology, boasting a system power output of 320 kW (429 hp). The powertrain consists of a 120 kW (161 hp) 1.5T engine and electric motor, mated to a 3-speed DHT. The lithium iron phosphate battery is supplied by either SVOLT or CATL (capacity has not been revealed yet).
The official CLTC pure electric range is 285 km, the comprehensive range is 1,810 km, and the fuel consumption is as low as 3.9L/100km.
Referring to the previously launched Smart #5 EHD, its powertrain outputs a combined power of 320 kW, consisting of a 120 kW 1.5T engine and a 200 kW (268 hp) electric motor, also mated to a 3-speed DHT.
As Smart’s biggest model to date once launched, the Smart #6 EHD measures 4906/1922/1508 mm, with a wheelbase of 2926 mm, which is also the longest wheelbase across Smart’s entire vehicle lineup.
In terms of design, most notably, the yellow exterior paint, yellow brake calipers, sloping roofline, and the electrically adjustable rear wing further emphasize the sporty nature of the vehicle.
Furthermore, the front features a continuous light bar design, paired with a black grille in the bottom. A lidar is mounted on the roof, indicating advanced driving assistance functions. From the side, the Smart #6 EHD has side cameras and uses hidden door handles.
At this time, the interior design has not yet been revealed, but it is expected to feature a digital smart cockpit, including a large central control screen and an AI voice assistant.
