2. Revolutionary Independent BeiDou System Technology

The SKY EV01 is equipped with the Dengfeng Tianyuan Independent BeiDou Intelligent Communication and Positioning Terminal, achieving a fully domestically produced closed-loop system from signal reception and data processing to security encryption, completely eliminating dependence on GPS.

Precise Positioning: In the Asia-Pacific region, the BeiDou system has a stronger signal and better resistance to signal blockage, providing more stable positioning in tunnels, underground parking garages, and urban canyons.

Data Security: Core data such as driving trajectory and location information are not transmitted externally or dependent on foreign systems, creating a trustworthy and secure mobile space for fleet operators and individual users.

Industry First: The world's first vehicle to achieve mass production of this technology, marking a breakthrough for Chinese automakers in overcoming a critical technological bottleneck in the underlying architecture of intelligent connected vehicles.

Technological Significance: This is not merely a navigation upgrade, but also a strategic implementation of national information security at the vehicle level, providing an autonomous and controllable spatiotemporal reference for future autonomous driving and vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication.

3. Vehicle Design and Space

Exterior: Closed front fascia + slim headlights + floating roof + continuous taillights, achieving a drag coefficient as low as 0.23Cd, combining high visibility with aerodynamic efficiency.

Interior: Column shifter + minimalist symmetrical center console + 10.25-inch LCD instrument cluster + 9-inch/12.5-inch central control screen (high-spec), balancing technological sophistication and practicality.

Space: A 2775mm wheelbase provides 860mm of legroom and 980mm of headroom in the rear, offering superior comfort compared to competitors.

Storage: Door panel storage compartments, a hollowed-out center console design, and well-placed front cup holders provide convenient daily use.

Note: No sunroof or heated front seats are available across the entire range; comfort features have been slightly compromised, focusing on core performance and intelligent safety.

4. Delivery Information

Initial users: Dengfeng Changxing Technology Co., Ltd., Yunma Weilai, Jinmifeng Mobility, etc. The vehicles will be deployed as the main models for ride-hailing platforms such as T3 Mobility.

Price Range: Starting from RMB 149,900 (445km AIR version), top-of-the-line version RMB 189,900, offering excellent value for money.

Market Positioning: RMB 150,000-200,000 pure electric compact SUV, emphasizing the triple core advantages of "long range + fast charging + independent Beidou navigation," directly addressing users' three major pain points: safety, range, and cost.

5. Current Advantages and Areas for Improvement

Advantages	Needs optimization
✅ The world's first independently mass-produced vehicle using BeiDou navigation technology, possessing exclusive technology.	❌ Not equipped with comfort features such as a sunroof and heated seats.
✅ All models come standard with fast charging (0.47 hours), setting an industry benchmark.	❌ The WindLink OS infotainment system has had audio/video malfunctions reported (requires continuous updates).
✅ VTOL mobile power station has strong functionality and practicality	❌ No LiDAR; advanced intelligent driving features require optional upgrade or subsequent OTA update.
✅ Affordable price, solid configuration	❌ Brand influence and after-sales network still need time to develop.
