Battery, Range, and Charging
The battery has a gross capacity of 26.8 kWh and a net usable capacity of 25.0 kWh, with a 1.8 kWh buffer (6.7%) for battery protection. With a nominal voltage of 262.8 volts, the system is classified as a 400-volt battery system.
The lithium-ion battery uses NMC (nickel manganese cobalt) chemistry.
According to the WLTP (Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure) standard, the vehicle's range is 220 km (137 miles), with an energy consumption rate of 11.4 kWh/100 km (5.5 mi/kWh).

The vehicle supports fast DC charging with a maximum power of 30 kW. A 0–100% charge takes approximately 79 minutes. A typical 10–80% session takes about 39 minutes at an average power of 27 kW.
With five minutes of overhead per stop, the optimal charging window is 0–71%. Effective average power, including overhead, is 24 kW over a session lasting about 44 minutes and 40 seconds.
In a 1000 km challenge at a constant speed of 120 km/h (75 mph) with an assumed consumption rate of 23.0 kWh/100 km, the trip would take about 16 hours and 47 minutes, needing 11 charging stops from 0% to 75%, totaling 508 minutes of charging time.
