The Shadow Leopard's chassis is 11.6 centimeters from the ground. Below is the relevant information: Introduction: The Trumpchi Shadow Leopard, also known as the Trumpchi EMPOW55, made its first public appearance at the 2020 Guangzhou International Auto Show. The Shadow Leopard is built on the GAC GPMA (GAC-Global-Platform-Modular-Architecture) platform, making it the first sports sedan under this platform. It is positioned in the compact class and boasts a drag coefficient as low as 0.26Cd. Exterior: The GAC Trumpchi Shadow Leopard adopts the "Light Sculpture Surface" design language, offering two exterior styles: the sport version and the luxury version. Specifically, the sport version features a large hexagonal front grille with a vertical waterfall design, along with two blue polygonal decorative elements inside the grille that resemble air intakes of fighter jets, accented with carbon fiber-like materials.
I happened to drive the Trumpchi Emkoo on mountain roads a couple of days ago and specifically checked its chassis data. The unladen ground clearance is about 120mm, which drops to around 110mm when fully loaded with passengers and luggage. This height is completely sufficient for city driving, with no worries about scraping over speed bumps or underground garage ramps. However, when I encountered deep potholes in the countryside last time, I had to slow down to pass through smoothly. If you want to improve off-road capability, you could consider switching to thicker tires or installing underbody protection plates, but this would affect handling. As a daily commuter car, the factory-set height achieves a good balance, ensuring both cornering stability and basic ground clearance requirements.
