With the launch of several models such as the Maxus MIFA 9, MPV has also begun to enter the electric era, and more electric MPVs are about to come out. In the 353rd batch of new car declaration directories of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology last month, SAIC motor has officially declared the Roewe iMAX8 EV version, and recently, its official map was also exposed for the first time.
Overall, the appearance of the Roewe iMAX8 EV version has been adjusted on the basis of the current fuel version of the Roewe iMAX8, of which the front face has undergone obvious changes, let's take a closer look.
The front headlights and front bar shape of the electric version of the model remain unchanged, mainly due to the replacement of the new mid-grid grid design and the addition of the front bar under the bracket kit. The middle grid grid has changed from the grid shape of the fuel version to the scaly shape, and the visual effect is more eye-catching, and the hollow feeling has become more full compared to the current model. A more prominent spoiler kit has been added to the lower part of the front bar for a more sporty feel. Overall, the front face of the Roewe iMAX8 EV version is more domineering, and the aura is not inferior to Alpha.
Compared with the current fuel version, the body side is mainly in the lower part of the car sill to add a bracketing kit, in addition to the addition of a new style of wheels. The double-sided sliding door is the standard MPV style, and the protruding angled waistline is very dynamic.
The shape of the tail will be the same as the fuel version, the overall shape is simple and tough, with a penetrating chrome trim between the tail light groups, and a horizontal chrome trim at the bottom of the rear bar.
In the power part, the new Roewe iMAX8 EV version is equipped with a maximum power of 180kW, the cruising range will exceed 550km, and it can support 30-80% fast charging in 30 minutes.
Written in the end: Regarding the positioning of the new car, the current price range of the fuel version of the Roewe iMAX8 is 18.88-25.38 million, but its sales performance in the same class is not too ideal, with cumulative sales of 13,903 units in 2021, with an average monthly sales of only 1,000 or so. As for the price of the electric version, it is expected to rise, but if you want more sales, it obviously can't increase too much.
