Additionally, there’s another V2L port positioned on the exterior of the vehicle, right by the charging port. This allows customers to utilize a converter and charge high-power electric equipment. The external port even provides power when the vehicle is turned off, offering added flexibility and utility to the users.
The locally assembled EV has a significant advantage over the competition with a lower price and is equipped with a 72.6 kWh battery and its permanent magnet synchronous motor can deliver an impressive 217 PS of maximum power and 350 Nm of peak torque.
