Positioning
Not a Model 3 competitor. It's a value C-segment sedan on a 400V architecture with a single motor.
China price starts at ¥119,800 (~€15,500); export price positioning ~€25,000 in Europe from 2026.

03
Compromises
DC peak 100 kW (Standard) / 175 kW (Max). No V2L on Standard.
Interior materials are basic below beltline; expect ID.3 quality, not P7+ quality.
