It has three options for the battery pack, with pack capacities of 100 kWh, 116 kWh, and 140 kWh, capable of providing a CLTC range of at least 570 km to 825 km.
The 140-kWh pack is a Qilin Battery from CATL (SHE: 300750), which is also used in Zeekr's (NYSE: ZK) Zeekr 009 MPV.
The model comes standard with a single motor with peak power of 200 kW and 400 kW options and peak torque of 343 Nm, 686 Nm respectively.
It can accelerate from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in 5.5 seconds or 8.9 seconds.
LEVC was founded in 1908 and Geely acquired a 20 percent stake in it in 2006 and wholly owned it in 2013.
The brand is a well-known manufacturer of black cabs in London and is one of Geely's brands in addition to Lotus, Zeekr, Volvo, and Polestar.
