The all-electric crossover packs a 66-kWh battery enough for a cruising range up to 440 kilometers.

Passengers can enter using a digital key, and once inside they experience a 12.8-inch touchscreen display , customizable ambient lighting, a 13-speaker Beats audio system, among other features. The rear seats also slide in a 60/40 split to maximize the available cargo room. Moreover, they have also promised a wide range of driver assist features.
