CHINA'S first pure electric vehicle, BYD e6, went on sale in Shenzhen yesterday.
The latest product for BYD, a domestic pioneer in developing alternative-energy vehicles based
in Shenzhen, the e6 combines state-of-the-art technology developed in a joint venture (合資企業(yè))
between BYD and the U.S.-based Daimler, Shenzhen Economic Daily reported yesterday.
The e6 carries a price tag of 369,800 yuan (US$56,030), according to BYD, which expected to
sell about 300 e6s each month in Shenzhen.
Prospective buyers, however, will only have to pay 249,800 yuan for an e6, because in July last
year, the city government started providing an extra 60,000 yuan subsidy to buyers of pure electric
cars on the basis of a national subsidy of 60,000 yuan.
According to the manufacturer's Vice President Lian Yubo, the BYD e6 possesses several examples
of world-class technology, including intelligent keyless entry, voice recognition navigation system,
on-board digital television, rear-view reverse camera and other accessories (附件). With the application
of iCloud technology, motorists will also be able to use their iPhones or other mobile phones running
an Android system to unlock and lock the car, control air conditioning, as well as monitor the location
of the vehicle.
Lian said BYD and Daimler would cooperate to release more electric vehicles.
Powered by recyclable and environmentally friendly iron-based batteries produced by BYD and
using 19.5 kwh of electricity per 100 km with no emissions, the e6 is capable of a maximum speed of
140 km per hour, the paper said. The car can run up to 300 km without a recharge.
It will take only one hour to recharge the e6 batteries to their full capacity at a charging station but
five to six hours will be needed for a full charge at charging stands installed in parking lots.
Shenzhen has been accelerating the construction of large charging stations. In addition, owners of
electric cars can apply to have charging stands installed in their residential communities.
