The numbers that matter here
At 130 km/h352 km55% of the official figure — 272 Wh/km · modeled, not measured
Same speed, 45°C summer279 kmHeat Score 65/100 — Fair

Works for you in the Gulf

  • 900V platform with 4C charging — short stops in summer heat
  • Six or seven seats at the same price — ideal for Gulf families
  • Same powertrain as the Signature for CNY 40k less — the value is here

Go in knowing

  • No official Gulf launch — distinct from the EL8 sold in the UAE
  • Battery swap and 4C charging lack announced Gulf infrastructure
What sets it apart

Battery swap — a full pack in minutes instead of waiting for a charge

Full 900V architecture with 4C charging — hundreds of km in minutes

Aquila super-sensing suite with LiDAR as standard
