Battery, Range, and Charging
The high-capacity battery has a gross capacity of 92.5 kWh and a net usable capacity of 90.6 kWh, providing a 1.9 kWh buffer (2.1%) for battery protection. The Lithium-Ion battery utilizes LFP technology, offering both benefits and drawbacks compared to typical NCA/NMC batteries.
According to the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) standard, the vehicle has an range of 270 miles (434 km) with an energy consumption rate of 3.0 miles per kWh. 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 kW. Charging from 0% to 100% takes approximately 90 minutes, while a more typical scenario from 10% to 80% takes 30 minutes with an average charging speed of 128 kW. Considering an additional 5 minutes for each charging stop due to driving interruptions, the optimal charging range is from 0% to 51%. This results in an effective charging speed, including time lost, of 138 kW, with each charging session taking about 20 minutes and 6 seconds.
In a theoretical 1000 km challenge, starting with a full battery and maintaining a constant speed of 120 km/h (75 mph) under ideal conditions with an assumed consumption rate of 27 kWh/100 km, the trip would take approximately 9 hours and 38 minutes. This journey would require four charging stops from 0% to 50%, with a total charging time of 79 minutes.
