The 2025 EXEED ET5 adopts a brand-new "Interstellar Travel" design concept. The front features a continuous LED headlight design, supporting six intelligent lighting interaction modes, making it highly recognizable. In terms of dimensions, according to information from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, its length, width, and height are 4850mm * 1960mm * 1730mm, with a wheelbase of 2900mm, making it a standard mid-size SUV and ensuring spacious passenger space.
The interior emphasizes a "space cockpit" concept, utilizing a large amount of renewable and environmentally friendly materials. The most eye-catching feature is the integrated ultra-thin 27-inch retina-level floating screen on the center console, which integrates the instrument panel, center console, and passenger entertainment functions. The seats are upholstered in Nappa leather, with standard front seats featuring ventilation, heating, and an 8-point massage function. The rear seatbacks offer 10-way power adjustment, and a 1.9㎡ panoramic sunroof creates a bright and luxurious driving environment.
The powertrain is the core highlight of the ET5. All models are equipped with an 800V silicon carbide high-voltage platform, offering both rear-wheel drive and dual-motor all-wheel drive versions.
Rear-wheel drive version: Equipped with a 230kW rear-mounted permanent magnet synchronous motor, producing a peak torque of 400N·m, achieving 0-100km/h acceleration in 5.9 seconds.
All-wheel drive version: Adds an asynchronous induction motor to the front axle, increasing the system's combined power to 380kW and combined torque to 670N·m, achieving 0-100km/h acceleration in just 3.8 seconds, placing its performance among mainstream high-performance SUVs.
Regarding range and charging, the ET5 is equipped with a 96.8kWh superchargeable battery pack. Under CLTC conditions, the rear-wheel-drive version boasts a combined range of 720 kilometers, while the all-wheel-drive version achieves 650 kilometers. Crucially, leveraging the 800V platform, the vehicle can achieve a maximum charging power of 480kW at compatible supercharging stations. Official data shows that a mere 10 minutes of charging can replenish 400 kilometers of range, significantly alleviating range anxiety for users.
Regarding the intelligent cockpit, the ET5 is equipped with the Lion 6.0 AI intelligent cockpit system based on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295 chip. Its computing power is eight times higher than the previous generation, supporting full-scene wake-free voice interaction, in-cabin motion-sensing games, and seamless multi-screen switching.
In terms of intelligent driving, the new car comes standard with NEP (Navigate on Pilot) highway navigation assistance. The advanced intelligent driving package is upgraded to the NEP (Non-Electronic Pilot) city navigation assistance system, covering urban road conditions. It is equipped with 31 sensing hardware devices, including one lidar, five millimeter-wave radars, and 11 high-definition cameras, supporting complex operations such as unprotected left turns, automatic detours around temporarily parked vehicles, and intelligent pedestrian yielding in urban roads. This system is planned to cover 100 cities nationwide via OTA (Over-The-Air) updates in the first quarter of 2025.
Based on pre-sale information, the expected price range for the 2025 EXEED ET5 is RMB 229,800 to RMB 289,800, with three configuration options. The official launch also includes eight exclusive benefits, such as lifetime warranty on the three core electric components, a RMB 5,000 trade-in subsidy, and free charging pile installation.
The launch of the 2025 EXEED ET5 represents a strong push by CHERY into the high-end pure electric vehicle market. It accurately addresses the four core pain points most concerning to current pure electric vehicle users: design, space, charging, and intelligent driving, presenting a solution that combines technological depth and market sincerity. In the pure electric SUV market priced between 200,000 and 300,000 RMB, the ET5 will undoubtedly become a formidable competitor to models like the BYD Tang EV and Tesla Model Y. Its final market performance deserves our continued attention.
