Reference data

Specs explained

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

China list price

CN¥429,800–CN¥509,800

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.

Mid-pack among comparable series with sufficient data

CLTC range

96–98 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.

Mid-pack among comparable series with sufficient data

WLTC range

73–76 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.

Mid-pack among comparable series with sufficient data

Battery capacity

16 kWh

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

Below average among comparable series with sufficient data

Maximum power

134 kW

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

Mid-pack among comparable series with sufficient data

Maximum torque

270 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

7.9 sec

A lower published 0–100 km/h time indicates quicker straight-line acceleration. The published value is the same across all current trims.

Below average among comparable series with sufficient data

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

4,660 mm

Length affects road footprint and parking space; it does not directly prove cabin room. It is the same across all current trims, so paying more does not change this cabin-packaging dimension.

Below average among comparable series with sufficient data

Width

1,865 mm

Width affects road and parking footprint and may support shoulder room, without proving it. It is the same across all current trims, so paying more does not change this cabin-packaging dimension.

Wheelbase

2,690 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.

Below average among comparable series with sufficient data

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.
