On February 23, the joint venture company established by Geely and Lifan released its first power exchange model, the Maple Leaf 60S was officially launched, and two models of the new car were launched, priced at 139,800 and 169,800 respectively.
In terms of appearance, people familiar with Geely models should see that the Maple Leaf 60S car has the shadow of Geely Emgrand GL, and the overall outline is basically the same. However, due to the attributes of electric vehicles, the front grille of the Maple Leaf 60S adopts a closed treatment, and the Logo is also hung with the appearance of maple leaves, which makes people think that this is a new energy vehicle at a glance. The side and rear lines are also similar to the Emgrand GL, which is relatively smooth and coordinated.
The interior part is also basically similar to emgrand GL, using the design language of Geely's previous generation, with slight differences in the decorative panels, and at the same time, the gearbox gear handle has been changed to a knob type that is more in line with the characteristics of new energy, which looks more modern. In terms of body size, the new car has a length, width and height of 4730/1804/1530mm, and a wheelbase of 2700mm.
In the power part, the Maple Leaf 60S is equipped with a permanent magnet synchronous motor with a maximum power of 100 kW, a maximum torque of 230 Nm, and an acceleration time of 10 seconds. In terms of battery life, the battery pack capacity of the ternary lithium model is 52.56 kWh, the battery pack capacity of the lithium iron phosphate model is 518 million hours, and under the NEDC working conditions, the ternary lithium model reaches 415 km, and the lithium iron phosphate model reaches 407 km. Having a power exchange function is a highlight of the new car, which can realize a 60-second power exchange experience.
GO Car Jun comments: The efficiency of power exchange is indeed higher than that of charging pile charging, and the most familiar power exchange model of the current netizens is Weilai. Geely and Lifan cooperated to launch this model, which should play a role in early exploration, because of the differences in the chassis and battery specifications of various manufacturers, it will take a long time for power replacement to be popularized.
