Performance
The YangWang U9 delivers a jaw-dropping maximum power of 960 KW (1305 hp/1287 bhp) and a massive total torque of 1680 Nm (1240 lb-ft). This powerhouse can rocket from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in just 2.36 seconds, showcasing its astonishing acceleration. Additionally, it achieves a top speed of 309 km/h (192 mph), making it a true marvel of engineering and performance.
Battery, Range, and Charging
The high-capacity battery has a gross capacity of 83.0 kWh and a net usable capacity of 80.0 kWh, providing a 3.0 kWh buffer (3.6%) for battery protection. Operating at a nominal voltage of 630 volts, it qualifies as an 800-volt battery system. This high voltage is pivotal in enabling the system's charging capabilities.
The Lithium-Ion battery utilizes LFP technology, which offers advantages and disadvantages compared to typical NCA/NMC batteries.
The vehicle supports fast DC charging with a maximum power of 500 kW. Charging from 0% to 100% takes approximately 45 minutes, while a typical 10% to 80% charge takes about 23 minutes with an average charging speed of 145 kW. Considering an additional 5 minutes for each charging stop due to driving interruptions, the optimal charging range is from 1% to 69%. This results in an effective charging speed, including time lost, of 128 kW, with each charging session taking about 26 minutes and 31 seconds.
In a 1000 km challenge at a constant speed of 120 km/h (75 mph) with an assumed consumption rate of 26 kWh/100 km, the trip would take about 9 hours and 45 minutes, needing three charging stops from 1% to 76%, totaling 86 minutes of charging time.
Onboard Charger
