3 · Everyday experience

What is the CS55 PLUS PHEV like to drive and use every day?

Only current English content and deterministic published facts are shown. Dimensions are not treated as proof of ride comfort.

Driving & performance

Performance changes meaningfully with trim choice.

Published power, acceleration and drivetrain show how performance changes across trims; they do not replace an untranslated road-test verdict.

Published evidence

  • Published power spans 158 kW across current trims.
  • Published 0–100 km/h times span 7.3–7.4 sec 0–100 km/h.
  • Drivetrain choices: Front-wheel drive.
  • The electric motor responds quickly, with a brisk 0-60km/h; sufficient combined power, with ample power in the low and medium speed ranges.
  • Overtaking is effortless in daily driving, with power readily available when needed.
  • High-speed acceleration relies on the engine, with slightly weaker power in the latter half.

Reference data

Specs explained

High-value published parameters are shown only where the current visible trims provide them.

China list price

CN¥104,900–CN¥112,900

The published China list-price range shows the entry point and how far upper trims extend. This parameter changes with trim choice; compare the key trims before deciding.

CLTC range

125 km

A protocol-labelled laboratory rating for comparing trims; it is not a guaranteed real-world distance. The published value is the same across all current trims.

WLTC range

95–100 km

A protocol-labelled laboratory rating for comparing trims; it is not a guaranteed real-world distance. This parameter changes with trim choice; compare the key trims before deciding.

Battery capacity

18.4 kWh

Battery capacity helps explain range potential, weight and charging needs. The published value is the same across all current trims.

DC charging power

43 kW

Peak DC power indicates charging capability, while an actual stop also depends on the charging curve and conditions. The published value is the same across all current trims.

Maximum power

158 kW

Published maximum power helps frame acceleration capability and overtaking reserve. The published value is the same across all current trims.

Maximum torque

330 N·m

Torque is one input to initial response; calibration, gearing and traction also matter. The published value is the same across all current trims.

0–100 km/h

7.3–7.4 sec

A lower published 0–100 km/h time indicates quicker straight-line acceleration. This parameter changes with trim choice; compare the key trims before deciding.

Drivetrain

Front-wheel drive

Drivetrain changes traction and can separate entry and performance trims. The published value is the same across all current trims.

Seats

5

Seat count is a capacity fact, not proof of passenger comfort. The published value is the same across all current trims.

Length

4,539–4,550 mm

Length affects road footprint and parking space; it does not directly prove cabin room. This parameter changes with trim choice; compare the key trims before deciding.

Width

1,865–1,868 mm

Width affects road and parking footprint and may support shoulder room, without proving it. This parameter changes with trim choice; compare the key trims before deciding.

Wheelbase

2,656 mm

Wheelbase is a packaging dimension and is not used alone as a ride-comfort conclusion. It is the same across all current trims, so paying more does not change this cabin-packaging dimension.

Body style

SUV

Body style helps frame access and cargo layout, but exact usability still depends on the vehicle. The published value is the same across all current trims.
