Rhino LFP cell pack
All three variants share a 65.05-kilowatt-hour Rhino lithium iron phosphate battery providing 600 kilometers of CLTC pure electric range, paired with a 178-kilowatt drive motor supporting 30% to 80% DC fast charging in 20 minutes. Structural safety incorporates 80% high-strength steel, 18.84% hot-formed steel, nine standard airbags, and 31-layer battery protective shielding designed to achieve five-star ratings under 2026 European NCAP safety protocols.
- Completed more than 6 million kilometers of validation testing across 100 extreme operating environments
- Engineered for parallel regulatory compliance across European Union and ASEAN jurisdictions
- Export counterpart Lepas L6 currently on sale in Thailand and South Africa
- Export rollout plans to introduce the model to Italian and Spanish dealerships in September, followed by the British market in October and expanding to Australia and Indonesia during November
Why this matters
The sub-100,000-yuan entry price undercuts major segment vehicles such as the Deepal S05 by 22,000 yuan while retaining uniform battery capacity. Standardizing safety architecture across domestic and export versions supports Chery's global expansion into Europe and ASEAN regions.
