Gulf charging notes

  • The CATL LFP pack is engineered for shock and wading — suited to harsh off-road use.
  • Charge before camping: instant motor torque on sand depends on having enough charge.

Gulf Tips

Practical Gulf guidance — separating verified experience from estimates and pending specifications.

Serious dunes

Despite the power, it's 3+ tonnes. Air down to 12-15 PSI, enable Sand + lockers, and use the motors' instant torque with smooth throttle — never floor it.

The full camping setup

6.6 kW V2L runs a fridge, lights, and grill; the in-car fridge keeps drinks cold; air suspension lowers the car for easier sleeping.

800V and summer

170 kW charging generates less heat than 400V at the same speed — a 10-min fast stop restores 100+ km of EV range.

    LFP engineered for shock and extreme temperatures.

  • Multiple airbags

    Comprehensive coverage across all rows.

Hacks & Secrets

Hidden features, easter eggs, and tricks you won't find in the manual — from real owners.

  • Gulf-Specific

    Pre-cool from the app at home

    Open the car app 10 min before leaving. Cabin cools, battery pre-conditions for charging. Saves time, max comfort in 50° summers.

  • Money Saver

    Schedule charging at off-peak rates

    In countries with time-of-use rates (UAE Slab 1), schedule 23:00-06:00 to save 20-40% on your electricity bill.

  • Comfort

    Camp Mode for sleeping or waiting

    Park in P, enable Camp Mode from menu or voice command. AC stays on, screens dim. Uses only ~1 kWh/hour.

  • Performance

    Max regen for less brake wear

    Set regen to highest (One-Pedal or High). Cuts brake wear 60%+ and adds 5-10% range in city traffic.

  • Money Saver

    Bump tire pressure +0.2 bar in summer

    A small bump (~0.2 bar above recommended) reduces rolling resistance and adds 3-5% range. Also a heat-safety win.

  • Gulf-Specific

    Console fridge in summer

    The built-in fridge under the armrest stays cold even parked (drawing from the battery) — cold water ready after any trip in summer Ramadan.

  • Money Saver

    A 10-min charge saves a day of fuel

    One stop at a 180 kW station gives ~100 km of EV in 10 minutes — if a fast station is on your commute route, daily driving becomes nearly free.

  • PerformanceAdvanced

    Crawl Control on sand

    Instead of managing the throttle on tricky sand, enable Crawl Control and let the car meter power itself — focus fully on steering and line choice.

  • Hidden Feature

    The 35.4-inch panoramic display

    The windshield-wide display shows navigation and off-road data (angles, altitude, compass) in a dedicated layout — enable Off-road mode in the screen settings.
