? Well, distributor Sime Darby Beyond Auto is finally introducing that model – the Dynamic Standard Range – on September 6, lowering the starting price of what is already, as well as the shortest range. That’s not to say that it’s a poor relation – utilising the same motor as thePremium Extended Range , it still puts out 204 PS and 310 Nm of torque, enabling it to accelerate from zero to 100 km/h in 7.5 seconds.
Meanwhile, its smaller 61.4 kWh Blade lithium iron phosphate battery provides a WLTP-rated range of 460 km, versus 570 km for the 313 PS/360 Nm Premium and 520 km for the 530 PS/670 Nm Performance AWD with the 82.5 kWh pack. As per the other models, the Dynamic supports up to 7 kW of AC charging – delivering a full charge in 8.6 hours – but only 110 kW of DC fast charging instead of 150 kW.
Speaking of the price, there’s no information on that front as yet. However, given that there’s a RM20,000 gap between the RM179,800 Premium and the RM199,800 Performance , we should expect the same between the Dynamic and Premium, meaning that this car could retail at under the RM160,000 mark.10% discount when you renew your car insuranceAfter trying to pursue a career in product design, Jonathan Lee decided to make the sideways jump into the world of car journalism instead.
