The Chery eQ1 is an all-electric car that is manufactured by the NEV division of Chinese manufacturer Chery. The eQ1 was originally planned to be called the Chery @ant during the reveal in 2016, but was later given the eQ1 name in line with the Chery eQ. The Chinese nickname was still the "Ant" during the official launch in 2017.

Originally code-named the Chery S51 EV, the Chery eQ1 is powered by an permanent magnet synchronous electric motor[1] putting out 30 kW (40 hp) and 120 N⋅m (89 lb⋅ft). The top speed of the eQ1 is 100 km/h (62 mph).[1][3] At the time of the launch, the price of the Chery eQ1 was from 49,800 yuan to 99,800 yuan (from $7,240 to $14,516), including subsidies for new energy vehicles in China.[4]

The Chery eQ1 was available as part of the EvCard electric car-sharing service in China as of 2018.

The battery capacity has been upgraded since the launch.[note 1] For the 2019 model year, the stated battery capacity is at least 30.6 kWh,[1] with the latest version reportedly having a 38 kWh battery.[2] In a car of this weight, even 30.6 kWh should translate into close to 200 kilometres (124 mi) of EPA range, and 38 kWh into considerably more than that.

Typically for Chinese cars, the manufacturer provides only the range according to the NEDC cycle, which overestimates the range much more than the EPA cycle. The stated NEDC range is 301 kilometres (187 mi).[1]

Charging takes 5-7 hours using a 6.6 kW charger, while fast charging from 30% to 80% takes 30-50 minutes.[1]

Notes

The vehicle was previously offered with a smaller battery and a 151-km advertised NEDC range. As of December 21, 2019, the English-language information on the Chery website still refers only to the range with the old, smaller battery, while the specification in the Chinese language is more up to date.

gollark: Why not just let people manually define that when "marrying"?

gollark: Thus, break marriage into its essential components and allow them to be manually done separately with fewer restrictions.

gollark: Exactly, If it's a recognized thing by the government they can apply annoying constraints, like they did with gay marriage before.

gollark: Wait, I have an even BETTER idea: HYPERGRAPHS.

gollark: It's not based because you can't marry unilaterally.
