iCaur V25 makes global debut with BEV and REEV options, up to 455 PS
The retro-styled iCaur V25 SUV has made its global debut in Wuhu, China, joining the brand’s existing V-Series lineup.
Positioned between the V23 and V27, the V25 is offered with battery-electric (BEV) and range-extended electric (REEV) powertrains.
The REEV version features the Golden REEV system, with a dual-motor configuration producing 455 PS and 505 Nm of torque.
Its intelligent i-AWD system allows the V25 to switch between two-wheel drive and all-wheel drive according to road conditions.
Five energy management modes are available: Forced EV, EV Priority, Hybrid, Fuel First and Forced Charge.
The Golden REEV system also achieves a maximum thermal efficiency of 44.5% and a fuel-to-electricity conversion rate of 3.71 kWh per litre.
