It is promised with 490 km (304 mi) NEDC range of 135 kW (181 hp; 184 PS) electric motor, 165 km/h (103 mph) top speed. It is slightly longer due to a new front with a more streamlined nose and slightly higher due to the necessary space for the battery. The battery cells are to be provided by CATL.[5] [6] [7]
