In case you can't open it it's anew CHinese EV with
536hp output from 4 x 100kW all wheel hub motors (1st in the world!)
Huge reduction in drivetrain elements
No traditional braking system (yes here have been reports of issues already! but I expect they'll be overcome)
25% higher energy recuperation giving a 650km range
The article says it should be released in time for the spring Beijing auto show.
