Geely wants you to “unleash your cuteness” with its new Panda Mini EV that comes with a 64-inch panoramic sun roof
55,800 in China, which is about $8,000. For this amount you get up to 22 kW charging which Geely says takes 30 minutes from 30% to 80%, 7 kW on AC, a reverse camera, smart internet, an app to start to turn on AC in the car before you hop in for a drive, unlock the car with your phone, Bluetooth, and a 9.2-inch screen etc. The battery capacity is 17.03 kWh, giving a CLTC range of 200 km. The maximum motor power is 30 kW.
China’s Low Speed Electric Vehicle market has probably set a precedent for this type of disruptive innovation. LSEVs vehicles were quite popular in small towns and in the rural areas in China. They are quite an upgrade from bicycles, e-bikes, and motorcycles, as they protect drivers from the elements and generally cost less than $3,000. Over 5 million of these LSEVs, which generally come with lead acid batteries, have been sold in China.
China’s mini EV sector was always bound to keep improving as the OEMs continue to iterate and feed the demand for this vehicle segment. It’s good to see more large companies such as Geely join in on the action. For now, China keeps getting all the good stuff — affordable small EVs that are perfect for most people’s daily needs in this target market.
