You might have seen our posts recently (here and here) about the Chinese automaker BYD's new plug in hybrids. Well, now BYD has introduced a fully electric crossover! The E6 was recently unveiled at the Beijing International Auto Show, and Treehugger has some specs:
The link below has a picture of the spec sheet.
So far, all we know is that the E6 will be a 5 seater with an acceleration of 0 to 100 kph of around 10 seconds. Top speed should be top speed of 160 kph (100 mph), and the battery pack, which is located under the rear passenger seats, will be based on BYD's own lithium-ion iron phosphate technology. Range per charge is expected to be 300 km (186 miles).But most impressive of all:
"BYD projected the battery had a life of 2,000 cycles, for a lifetime range of about 600,000 km (373,000 miles)"
