Battery, Range, and Charging
The high-capacity battery has a gross capacity of 77.0 kWh and a net usable capacity of 74.4 kWh, providing a 2.6 kWh buffer (3.4%) for battery protection.
This Lithium-Ion battery utilizes NMC (Nickel Manganese Cobalt) technology.
Under the WLTP (Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure) standard, the vehicle's range varies between 530 to 520 km (329-323 miles), depending on the specific configuration and options, such as wheel size. Larger wheels can increase energy consumption and subsequently reduce the overall range.
The vehicle's energy consumption is rated at 14.0 kWh/100 km for the base model and 14.3 kWh/100 km for the top-tier model under the WLTP test cycle.
For more details about the range, see real-world data and range listings on this model’s range and consumption page.
The vehicle supports fast DC charging with a maximum power of 135 kW. Charging from 0% to 100% takes approximately 103 minutes, while a typical 10% to 80% charge takes about 33 minutes with an average charging speed of 94 kW.
Considering an additional 5 minutes for each charging stop due to driving interruptions, the optimal charging range is from 3% to 58%. This results in an effective charging speed, including time lost, of 98 kW, with each charging session taking about 25 minutes and 58 seconds.
In a 1000 km challenge at a constant speed of 120 km/h (75 mph) with an assumed consumption rate of 21 kWh/100 km, the trip would take about 9 hours and 44 minutes, needing three charging stops from 2% to 63%, totaling 85 minutes of charging time.
