After 7 years research and with the use of 5th generation technology, iEV5 has become China’s first and only futuristic pure electric sedan. Not only is its chassis developed based on pure electric vehicles’ characteristics, but it has also put aside the lead acid lithium battery that iEV4 now uses. The new ternary battery has made “one time charge 200 kilometer mileage with 120km/h speed” come true. The detailed design, specifications and high-end technology have made the iEV5 even more elegant.
