Exciting news from the world of electric cars! IM Motors, a Chinese car brand linked to the SAIC group, has just launched its latest creation, the IM L6.
This sleek electric saloon is turning heads with its slender design and, get this, it’s available with something called solid-state batteries. It’s a big deal because this technology has been highly anticipated and now it’s finally here.
The IM L6 comes with a whopping 130 kWh battery, giving it a range of up to 1,000 km (that’s about 621 miles), according to the CLTC homologation cycle. And here’s the kicker: it’s not just about the range, it’s also about the price.
IM Motors has revealed the prices for the IM L6, and they’re surprisingly affordable. The Standard Max starts at £25,300, while the High Performance goes for £33,000, and the top-of-the-line Lightyear Max, which comes with the solid battery, is priced at £36,300.
Now, let’s talk about the battery itself. At the launch event, IM Motors announced that it has a special 900-volt architecture, allowing for super-fast charging of up to 400 kW. That means you can get up to 400 km (about 249 miles) of range in just 12 minutes!
But here’s the twist: the battery is actually a semi-conductor battery with a hybrid electrolyte. It combines a fluid with a solid component, similar to what Nio uses in its semi-solid battery.
Apart from the battery, the IM L6 is packed with cutting-edge technology for both entertainment and driving. It’s got an Nvidia Orin chip for top-notch performance and two big screens for all your infotainment needs.
And let’s not forget about the driving experience. With an active chassis and four-wheel steering, this car is all about delivering a smooth and dynamic ride.
Whether you go for the single-motor or all-wheel-drive variant, the IM L6 is sure to make a splash in the electric car market.
Exciting times ahead for the future of driving!
