[ad_1]
Enovate is a new brand of electric vehicles from China. It only took them one production car (ME7) before changing their name to Enoreve. The Chinese name remains the same (天é ). On July 13, they launched their second car, Enoreve ME5, with a price tag of 149,900 yuan ($ 23,000) and a range of 1,012 km.
The Enoreve ME5 is not a pure EV. It has a gasoline range extender like Li Auto or other PHEVs. They call it iMES Smart Range Extender System, and it is a 1.5L motor with a power of 72kW. The engine power of the combine is 150 kW. The battery capacity is 30.6 kWh and the pure battery range is 155 km. With a range extender, it is 1012 km. The size is 4580/1915/1635 mm, the wheelbase is 2750 mm. There will be two versions:
-
- ME5 1012 – 149,900 yuan ($ 23,000)
- ME5 1012 Pro – 159,900 yuan ($ 24,700)
The sale of the new car will begin on August 27.
Enovate was established in 2018 as a premium brand of electric vehicle startup DearCC. DearCC is the EV brand of SouEast Motors, which was established in 2016 and presented at the Guangzhou auto show in November. DearCC has focused on low budget urban electric vehicles.
ME5 is produced at Enoreve’s factory in Changsha. In May, Enoreve announced a strategic cooperation with Chinese e-commerce giant JD.com in digital marketing and smart product development.
Enoreve is entering a crowded market for electric vehicle range extenders and will be competing with Li-One, BYD Tang DM-i and Dongfeng’s new hybrids built on its Blue Core iDD hybrid platform. The name change to a more unique, patent-free name could also signal overseas expansion plans, so let’s keep our fingers crossed.
