- A review of the world's fastest-charging EV, the Li Auto MEGA.
********
The fastest-charging EV in the world is not a Tesla, nor is it a BYD. It's the Li MEGA, which boasts the ability to add more than 500km of charge in under 11 minutes. It's the first fully electric car from China's original king of extended range electric cars, Li Auto, and signals a massive change and a serious statement of intent from one of 2023's standout successes.
Check out why everyone is so excited about the roadgoing bullet train that can seat up to seven adults in complete comfort.

I remember going to China 🇨🇳 25 years ago. We were laughing at the chinese copies of the other OEMs ..the vehicles were shockingly bad...look at the progress china has made . Its estonishing ...they will lead the industry globally in few more years
Even until ten years ago they made utter crap here. The turnaround has been nothing less than staggering.
@@InsideChinaAuto I'm semi retired now. I remember being in board meeting and highlighted the risks based on the projection of development from China and Korea but no one took it seriously..now they regret I bet not listening to me
@Evoque.1 I bet they are. The new generation won't be getting quite the same pension their predecessors got I suspect.
Now that China makes the best EV cars, other automakers can't compete with China
U were fooled by China that time
OMG. The passenger can watch a movie. It's a mini bus that charges quickly.
Everyone can. And what you don't see in this video (but you can in my Li L7 video) is that the screen can be controlled using gestures, literally holding your hand up in the air and doing different actions. You can even do this from the 3rd row and it actually works.
I was looking for something like this years ago. I had to settle for a Tesla Model X as it was the closest to a family mini van I could get as EV back then. No major complaints about the falcon wing doors but I wanted sliding doors actually.

I am a li auto one user, I smiled
@@junqiaojohnzhao9517 Greetings from across the Pacific. I live in North Carolina USA. Awesome!! My Hyundai Ioniq 6 charges in 20 minutes and I only have 280 miles of range but yours charges in 11 minutes and you have like 360 miles of range. Crazy good. I told my husband about it.
This design is optimal for an EV. More manufacturers will follow this layout.
😅😅😅
Don't know if it's optimal but it sure looks futuristic
EV is the right drivetrain for this car and clearly the aero really works.
@@rwjh3698it’s a mini-van
Actually that design (it is optimal, I agree) is directly same as in my 2006 Renault Grand Espace. Veeery spacious. I love it
This looked like the car from a near-future sci-fi movie
It's got the tech to match.
Go look at Hyundai Staria, They Copied from Hyundai
@alexandertsanga I think they copied from aerodynamics. That or the Hyundai copied from the Toyota Previa, which copied from the Pontiac Trans Sport. If you know how long the development times of cars is, you'd know they couldn't have copied from Hyundai because their car hadn't been released by the time this was in development.
@@alexandertsangano, they copied vans like the previa, aerostar, and lumina that existed long before those vehicles were even a thought in anybody’s mind.
This car's design and specs are absolute fire! It's no wonder that Li Auto is growing so quickly when they make such compelling vehicles.
They seem to know and understand their audience far better than anyone. I'll show their model year 24 upgrades soon. They're almost as impressive.
But they leave big fat mirrors sticking out 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️. What else have they been dumb about ?
Hope not fire. 😄
It’s a mini-van. Wouldn’t sell well in the US due to stigma. Good for other markets though.
@@LowreyContractorsUK agreed, it should use cameras instead but many countries still require physical mirrors, which is dumb in 2024….
I can see this being an amazing Vacation vehicle for the Family. Plenty room, fast charging, good range. Glass Roof. I want this in America right now.
Exactly what Li has designed it for.
No you dont
We can’t have it because of a stupid 100% tariff.
China's provision of loans, policies, and efficient labor has rescued Tesla from its difficulties, with the company earning over $18 billion in annual revenue from the Chinese market. Simultaneously, citing national security concerns, the United States has virtually banned the sale of almost all Chinese-brand electric vehicles in its market.
US cites many things. The reality is usually that they just can't keep up and are afraid of being overtaken by outsiders, much like Toyota did.
China would probably ban Tesla and apple in the future as the counter measure if US keep on banning Chinese phones and EVs.
Now the US has adopted the notion of "unfree" trade! 😂😂😂
Just look at when the United States was ahead and when it was about to be surpassed, and you will understand what double standards are.
In North America we are decades behind. It's incredible to see just how far ahead the Chinese auto sector is.
Less partisan fighting, more getting on with things will have that effect.
Have you ever heard of Tesla?
@disarchitected LOL, what else you can get from North America??? Look at how many brands and new models coming our from China each year.
And, check carefully all the details VS. Tesla. I have Tesla because there is no other options here in Canada (Tesla built quality and the material used are so cheap compared to most of the Chinese brands in less than half of the price you paid for Tesla).
I will definitely switch to Chinese EVs if they allow to complete in North America auto market.
@@Macoromnilook at how many are failing now that Chinese EV subsidies stopped.
@@MacoromniTesla is not rhe only EV available in Canada, untrue, you can buy chevy, hyundai, nissan, etc EVs. i literally googled “evs available in canada”.
ok, this is specs which might me consider EV`s...cheers from Germany.
58db is incredible btw- i think even RR aint better...dig the design aswell- 10 points!
design 😅😅😅😅
I agree completely!
you name me a better Van-like- scultpure...this thiing is neat!
Rolls royce ghost does 51db at 60mph but costs 300k sooooo i take the MEGA
It was very impressive indeed. 58 at 130kph. Can't argue with that.
Currently in China for holiday, love the country , super safe!
Amongst many EV brands , Li Auto is one of a few really caught my eyes, don’t think they make small cars though, so far I see Li Autos SUV, they looked really classy!
The SUVs are really nice, we've driven a few on the channel. Very eye catching. Glad you're enjoying the holiday.
What a fantastic car, technology second to none, well done China. Sell it direct, miss all the middle men ripping UK and Europe off. Legacy car firm's look out.
I'll be amazed if any of them can get close to this in the next five years.
Hope this car can come to Thailand soon🎉🎉🎉
Sure Ting from TiY will let you know when it does. He'll be harassing Li to do it.
Currently no official channel, but you can buy from second-hand car exporters from China, ( Brand New Cars indeed)
Absoultely superb product is this Li MEGA !! Amazing stuff. Hopefully it hits EU market !!
It's a cracker. As for Europe, let's see, but don't hold out too much hope just yet I'm afraid.
@@InsideChinaAutoThanks for the response !
Hope not, it is dead ugly with its strange proportions and long back overhang.
@@andersnilsson973the design is not perfect, but I like the essence of it. A few tweaks and it would be close to perfect minivan.
18:00 So 9% to 80% charging in 11 minutes . 80% SOC has 350 miles of range. Wow! What is the battery chemistry?
Trade secret. Likely nuclear.
micro fusion reactor
Latest and greatest NCM ternary 5c battery tech CATL has available. Mega is the first production car using it.
800 volt charging is key but the secret in the NCM battery chemistry to make it faster than other 800 volt charging cars is to use more cobalt. That’s how it can handle charging at over 500 kW at 9% and still be pulling 317 kW at 79%. That’s an amazing charge curve. Overall, it more than 3 times faster than my 2023 Tesla Model Y Long Range.
Seems CATL invented some new weapon.
Hope these make it to Hong Kong soon.
Right hand drive. Eek. Might have to wait a while.
Absolutely the most amazing EV out there, I want one! Charging speed is insane fast and autopilot is far superior then Tesla. Excellent review, thanks so much for sharing!
No problem Randy. It's a brilliant car.
The charging is crazy. Can’t wait to see the charging tech in the west
Afraid you'll be waiting a while. 😂
Afraid you'll be waiting a while. 😂
@@InsideChinaAuto I think so too. From recent rumors, maybe Tesla adopts the M3P battery soon.
@@InsideChinaAutoactualy, quickest cragers in Germany are 400 kW (Alpitronic HyperCharger HYC-400, which can be configured with one or more plugs), so nominal just 25% up. 700A charging isn't standardized on CCS yet, though. But as Taycan (and I'm sure EU based CCS standards will go with EU brands) goes beyond 350 kW already (CarManiac filmed 360 kW at a 350kW charger ...), it won't take too long, I guess. "A while" is still correct of course 😅
@@oenkepoenke You might under estimate the challenge here. To setup a 5C charger which using in the video. The biggest challenge is on the grid. Even in monster grid we have in China, it is not an easy thing to find many place where you can deploy them. It generate a heavy load to the grid.
thank you so much for your thorough and detailed review! what a great car!
😅😅😅
Very welcome. Thank you for watching.
Months ago i commented you are good at this. glad to see you are even better now. the whole presentation is quiet comfortable to watch.
You know how to make me happy Gary. Thank you for the compliment.
Amazing. Wanted in Australia.
Let's hope it gets there then.
Love the comfort and tech in this EV. The charging speed is crazy fast. Thanks for bringing this one.
No problem, I enjoyed bringing it.
Go China! 👍
Go China indeed.
looks like a coffin.
@@user-ez7lf4uq6x Cool coffins where you come from. Wonder why they need to be so streamlined.
@@user-ez7lf4uq6xSounds indian jelousy and western jelousy isñt?😂
And go where exactly? To the Uyghur labor camps? :)))
This is an amazing vehicle that will have global appeal.
Hopefully for Li. Sure there will be unofficial exports for anyone that wants one enough.
Awesome video and vehicle! 👏👏👏 I love everything about it 😍😍
Thank you. The car is the star.
Thanks for your video. Not only is the people mover extremely impressive, you are also a very accomplished communicator 🎉🎉
Much appreciated Dietmar.
Absolutely mind blowing EV! A lot of things are well thought out. Type-C port for every seat and wireless chargers also on rear seats. Unique likeable design. And this fast charging is fantastic! Modern MPV at its best!
Li has a reputation for putting family first so they know what the people want and provide it. Great cars.
Yes, this car looks very compelling in all features. Don't know much about the brand or crash safety, but the other features are basically the most compelling EV I've seen for a family.
@acasualviewer5861 They make the L9 which is the highest rated vehicle rated on the Chinese NCAP test so they must be decent.
Looks great, nice review
😅😅😅
Looks like an awesome vehicle. Great review.
Western legacy OEMs are so woefully far behind. Their executives must be just holding things together long enough to reach retirement.
Thanks very much. It does indeed.
That would indeed seem to be the mindset. I've seen it before when working for them. Many just waiting out for a fat pension.
Another great video as always - so well scripted and produced!
Thanks very much. Far less scripting for this one as I didn't get the usual amount of time to do each shot separately so had to reel off everything I could remember in a couple of takes.
I love this vehicle, much nicer than an Alphard.
You'd love riding in one even more, whether driver or passenger.
Hi Mark.
Great review here.
That's one seriously impressive mpv, what a beautiful looking creature it is too ❤, I think best enjoyed luxuriating in the 2nd row backseat there, Wow .
Love all the local scenery where are you?, Nice clear day I noted over that bridge.
That's impressive an charging rate to do you know what battery chemistry that is .
Would that be a 4C type battery. Possibly the new gold lfp technology As well ?
Our Asian population would love this in Australia.
Love that bridge and the ocean there where were you if I may ask.
Any upcoming auto shows on the horizon?
Regards John in Melbourne ❤
Hi John. Good to see you here again. It really is a lovely car, ideal for families. The video was shot in Sanya, a tropical island on the south coast of China. Visa-free for 30 days if you fancy a visit. I believe the battery is a CATL NMC battery, 5C, hence the fast charging.
As for auto shows, Beijing is coming up in April. It should be fantastic.
Your reviews are really good, great viewing experience and good knowledge thank you
Glad you like them my friend. Thanks for watching.
@@InsideChinaAuto your welcome looking forward to watching some of the others keep them coming
Brilliant ❤️
free Palestine.
I thought so.
It actually looks good in person.
😅😅😅
It does. A lot more lithe than in pictures, not boxy or oversized by any means.
I love the drone on the top view very nice looks green eco friendly environmental ❤❤👍👍
Some lovely scenery in Sanya
Wow So cool Ev I love it absolutely amazing design sleek looking 😮😮
Very sleek indeed.
Oh I love this vehicle, so clean and practical but also stylish
And it can be a bed with the right mattress.
This is the fucking ultimate family car, holy shit.
You may just be right.
Thank for introducing this EV!
Not a problem. We have a whole channel full of them.
like your video and nice ev
Cheers Ryan. The car is cool.
How come in US nobody make this kind of family Van car? This is Unique and truly beautiful . And it charge very fast
They want to stick you all in SUVs for some reason.
The Scenery in this video is Breathtaking. Wow! Very Beautiful Place
Sanya is a stunning place.
@@InsideChinaAuto Indeed! This vehicle is the perfect EV for Vacation. Man, it truly has everything you could think of. Question, Did it have a Heads up Display while driving?
@@NBWDOUGHBOY It does indeed, and it shows your sat nav, your autonomous driving 'surroundings' view, and even (first time I've seen this) your blind spot camera when you indicate.
It's quick, nice car ,I love it
It's awesome. Space for everyone and everything.
Nice looking vehicle.
Great presentation thanks. Impressive engineering and blue ocean thinking
Thanks Jeff. It is an impressive car.
Superb car, I hope it comes to Europe at a reasonable price.
Might be waiting a while I'm afraid. They're focused on domestic markets to begin with.
i pretty sure it won't. the market for people who want to get eye cancer is very small in europe.
however, it might take a while but you will get these charging speeds as well in europe in the next years. and regarding the range, WLTP is not the same as the chinese standard where you have to drive the car down a mountain to reach the km claims.
WLTP in europe is already far from reality. you have to substract between 15...30% of range, depending if you are a fast driver or not. but for chinese range claims, you have to substract another 10%.
i guess the next version of the ID. Buzz could be nice with a bit better battery tech.
@stefanweilhartner4415 CLTC in general means a 20-25% drop from the stated claims (I should know, I've tested enough of them) but this car claims 15.9kWh per 100km and during our day of driving over 100km, I'm not sure the exact distance, we averaged the exact same figure with 4 on board, a bunch of equipment, and A/C on full, so it was pretty damn good.
Thanks for the information
No problem at all mate
X9 also has a movable 2nd row and better control placement. Easier access to 3rd row. Much larger 2nd row screen, 4.5” larger. Rear trunk space is much better utility because the fold down instead of fold up design.
xpeng had almost everything right but being able to charge full battery in 15 minutes is no joke
Yeah, the X9 does have some things better than this such as rear wheel steering and the fold flat seats but I'll do a full comparison as soon as I get hold of one.
@@tonypaca3015 X9 will still charge faster than just about any EV out there, even if it isn't quite as fast as the Mega. Plus the X9 starting price is a full 25k USD lower than the Mega. I think a rational consumer would go for the X9 over the Mega.
@@tonypaca3015 sounds nice on paper but most of the time, you need more than 15 minutes break at the charger. Both of them can do 500km at highway speed. X9 charges in 25 minutes. Good enough for a meal break, or bathroom plus some leg stretching.
Absolutely Fantastic!👍🙏🙂🐲🐉
Couldn't agree more.
I'm a German engineer and was working more than the last two decades for a well known - not saying- World's famos car manufacturer. The Chinese car makers poped up in Europe on famos auto exibitions like IAA-Frankfurt somewhere two decades ago. We the European did repat the mistakes as once the US car makers ignored Japanese car makers when they did enter the US-Market. So, now we do experiance in Europ a wave the another by the Chinese car makers and we are struggeling to follow up with the advancd technologies they do offer even on the mass market for passenger cars, at all measures. Hence I wish good luck to all of us in this battl we've already lost to be honest. Just check to understand the facts strating allmost at the sequence 28:00 min. Sorry for typing errors. My keybad has go crazy be the facts in this video.🙂
Yes, that's 102.7kWh battery, 710km range on CLTC, charges over 500km in less than 11 minutes (on the right charger). You're right about those doubting the Chinese. To be honest, if I'd been those guys looking at Chinese cars back in 2010 or so, I'd doubt it too, they were dross. Even 2014 they weren't good. The turnaround has been quite incredible.
From the perspective of the Chinese market, compared to Japanese automakers, German automakers have shown a relatively swift response to electrification. While Germany's automotive industry maintains its excellent mechanical design capabilities, there are still significant shortcomings in terms of intelligence and networking. In the Chinese market, the first players likely to be eliminated are French, followed by Japanese and American brands. Thanks to their strong position in the luxury car segment, German automakers can still achieve significant profits within five years.
@@syshou I am Chinese and you are right. This is the current situation. The sales of BMW, Mercedes-Benz and Audi are still very good in China.
@@InsideChinaAuto You sound like Wumao.
@evrythingis1 Come see for yourself mate. Go visit the factories doing huge amounts totally automated, try the cars, use the software. When you've done all that, and when you've worked for Mercedes for 8 years and know exactly what they're like too, how they drive, how they're built, how their software works, come back and see if you still think I'm a wumao or somebody who actually knows his shit.
Thank you for posting this. Will you be posting part 2 of the Farizon Supervan video soon?
I'm expecting it very soon but need to wait until the official launch. Stay tuned.
Nice Job Man. I am a Li Auto L8 owner for 8 month, really like that Car, Hope in near future i can exchange my L8 to Mega
Lucky guy. They're lovely cars.
Quite a remarkable new vehicle. Very impressed by its design, comfort and driving characteristics. Seems very much as a big winner. Unclear if such will be available in Europe in view of existing limitations, market differences. Also quite impressed by the road…. Vietnam still far away from such level unfortunately…
Overall it's an excellent car, really very impressive.
Nice
Agreed.
I am really impressed by this family van maybe we will buy it if available in Germany thanks for sharing.
No problem. Might be waiting a while to get one in Europe though.

미국은 중국 전기차를 제재하는데, 독일은 구매할수있나요?
@@user-fj5pi5xb1j Nobody can except in China, though some markets you'll be able to easily get one imported from China, like western Asia.
just saw one on a test drive in Shanghai today. interesting looking although I think I like the Xpeng X9 more
I'm looking forward to comparing to the X9 and seeing where each betters the other.
@@InsideChinaAuto Still think Zeekr 9 is the coolest in this category.
Wow, I’ll buy this one once available
You should, especially if you have a family.
@@InsideChinaAuto Didn't notice what the price was?
@@normanklein3155 559,800 RMB, or about £61.5 / $78k
Wow 🤩 beautiful inside.
It's very nice indeed. Lovely materials and elegant design.
Great video and great first effort from Li Auto.
It would help if you could give an estimate of when this and others that you test will be available in the UK.
Thank you for the compliment. I'm afraid predicting UK entry is almost impossible at the minute. They've indicated they have very little immediate interest in even coming to Europe, at least for another 3 years, but you never know for sure.
Holy smoke !! If I ever sold our Tesla this is the only car I would swap for ! Fantastic does not cover it…..when will it come to the UK oh the 12th of never !
Blinding revue though, well impressed
Quite the car, right? Brilliant piece of kit.
wow, you are quick!
Not quite 11 minutes quick though.
@@InsideChinaAuto😂😅
Perfect aerodinamics, great looking interior, would buy this in a second
Got a big family? It'll be ideal.
Great job on demonstrating all features.
And I even missed a couple out, like blind spot camera in the HUD.
I love the 10ths and 100ths of a percent on the charging screen so you can actually see it go up. Would be better if it was in kwhr but oh well. OF COURSE, here in America, we'll never get such things because OEMs are afraid to show us numbers at all. They begrudgingly give us 0-100%. And they HATE to show us units. (Even though they used to do that type of thing.) Because they think we're all 5 years old or something.
It does help highlight the impressive speed with some theatrics. The whole world needs more tech like this, US especially.
Needs to show kW. It was pulling over 500 kW at 9% and 331 kW still at 79%! About 4 times faster charging than my 2023 Tesla Model Y Long Range!!
wow. how did china past the US in electric infrastructure and innovation? they were considered a third world country 20 years ago! what happened?
This is what is possible when industries work in the same direction, not hamstrung by endless bickering and indecision.
The difference between a competent patriotic government, and corrupt and dumb government.
China is still third world country right now!😂
@@Ben-qe8cxUSA is 3rd world country 🤣. Homelessness everywhere
Great Video. Would like to see your review of AITO M9 as well. Similar in price range~
Certainly will be trying to get hold of one.
Perfect, clean, extremely comfortable. The future!
Feels that way.
I can see haters callling this a Staria copy but for me, it looks more like a train than a Van. Lots of cyberpunk feel to it!
Great review as always! Your knowledge is very impressive!
it does look a little like a staria but this looks better than a staria
Haha, it's my day job, I should know this stuff. But yes, it's quite different from the Staria in person, and much more impressive.
Fantastic car! Thank you.
No problem. Thank Li Auto.
@@InsideChinaAuto Yeah! I hope they will bring it to Europe.
What's the official figure on charge cycles? 1500 like most EVs?
I would love to see a deeper dive into the BMS while charging. Running something like carscanner to see the temps and stuff.
Haven't seen information on that. Would have to look into it for you.
This car is so well designed on the inside! Dang!
Lis are beautiful places to be.
Thanks for the video, are there any plans to export currently
Not yet, but stay tuned. It's going to be a big year for Li Auto and they may just expand to some places. We'll have to see.
This is great..I hope you can also review the mini cars like Chery EQ1 2024 and Baojun E100.. Thanks 🤘
Trying to get an eQ1, they look cool.
@@InsideChinaAuto The latest version is really cool.. It would be great if you can do an actual range test.. More power to your very informative channel 🤘
The people of China are so lucky to have the most practical electric van in the world.
Not sure I'd call it the most practical to be honest, but it's certainly very usable. The concept of captain's chairs limits how practical it can really be compared to say western MPVs where you can remove the seats.
Li is a company that manufactures high-end automobiles, ranking second in the world in EVs
Don't think they're second in the world yet, far from it, but I'm sure they wouldn't mind.
Amazing charging speed 😮
Ridiculous how fast it is.
This is impressive! I love everything about this car. I hope it's reliable though.
Lis have been so far but only time will tell.
Wow. This is actually a good car. Congratulation
Thanks, I worked really hard on it. But no, it is a good car, a very good one.
Beautiful design
Quite the headturner.
Looks amazing !
So it does. Quite distinctive.
Nice video ❤❤
Thank you very much.
Fantastic ❤
I thought so too
amazing car, I want to buy one
Will have to come to China or import one for a while I think.
Beautiful design luv how fast it charge 👍🏿
It's the future.
@@InsideChinaAuto am all for the electric vehicle 👍🏿
I so hope this helps China's economy. So nice of you 🌹 You're amazing.
Thanks for the flower.
10 mins to charge !!!. This is twice the time it takes to fill a normal car with petrol.Very impressive. Thanks for a very nice video.
No problem at all. Yes it is very impressive.
great car. What I'm most interested in is the charging infrastructure
Growing every day. 2000 by the end of this year, 5000 end of next, all capable of charging this at that speed.
Great video 😮
Thanks Suzy
Sweet looking ride.
Sweet feeling ride too
wow❤👏👍
Nice, right?
Car interior looks nicer than my apartment.
Lis do have that effect.
Cost more than your apartment too...
That design is quite the same as in 2003-2011 Renault Grand Espace. Love it
Have to get your inspiration from the best.
Li said we can't avoid traffic jams and hard work, but we can solve the fatigue and boredom on the road. This is a good concept and idea.
Exactly. You definitely can't avoid the traffic, unless maybe you take an XPeng flying car.
Beautiful design all around. Nothing missed.
It's a cracker.
Li Auto aims to be the BMW of EV
Which is a shame because BMW looked like they were going to be the BMW of EVs until they gave up.
Hi where in China is that filmed.
Sanya
Would these kind of charging speeds make NIO's swap stations unnecessary? What would be the cost of each?
I think there's room for both but certainly a charging speed like this makes swapping far less necessary or unique. In China at least, the cost of fast chargers is usually about 16 price or 21 cents per kWh, so even a full 0-100% charge on this would be about £17 / $23. Can't say the same for Europe but you also don't get these charging speeds.
yes. but also slow charging at home is enough for a lot of applications.
@@stefanweilhartner4415 yeah... if you live in a house or a residential tower with personal underground parking... unfortunately most chinese people living in urban areas do not have that. (also people in rural area might have home charging, but not really have the money to buy an expensive EV)
Very impressive overall. Seeing this and the Xiaomi SU7, it appears the legacy automakers and most of the startup EV makers are light years behind these 2 Chinese EV startups(Li and Xiaomi). What is the price of the Li EV you drove? The Xiaomi's price is so low that it will outsell and thereby kill what is on the market now. Both vehicles very quickly charge. Does the Li EV have bidirectional charging?
The Li does have bidirectional charging and costs 559,800 RMB in China, whatever that is currency translated today.
The cost is $77,800.34 in USD. That is a bit expensive for most people in the US but very reasonable for what you get with this EV. Bidirectional charging is a big plus for those like me who lose power 2 to 3 times a year due to storms and who do not have solar power to generate electricity. This better than having a gas generator which would be used a few times a year at most. This car would be used everyday for a number of different things. The generator has only 1 use.
What's the battery chemistry?
Because which battery gonna survive 8C charging for long
I believe it's CATL's NMC Qilin battery.
Beautiful design indeed.👍
Another in the like column.
Will this be available in Uk, if so what is cost?
It will not, at least not for the foreseeable future I'm afraid. They don't do RHD yet and are not yet officially in any country outside of China.
