What does the KERS on the Roewe ei6 mean?
2 Answers
The KERS on the Roewe ei6 is a button that controls the intensity of braking force recovery charging. More details are as follows: 1. Configuration: The Roewe ei6 is based on the Roewe i6 but features a larger trapezoidal front grille, a redesigned front bumper, and hybrid-specific badges on the front fenders. The top-tier Roewe ei6 model boasts a rich array of features, including Alcantara seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, heated front seats, an electronic parking brake, a 12-inch full LCD instrument panel, ambient lighting, and an auto-dimming rearview mirror. 2. Powertrain: The new vehicle is equipped with a plug-in hybrid system consisting of a 1.5T turbocharged engine and an electric motor. The 1.5T engine delivers a maximum power of 124 kW (169 PS) and a peak torque of 250 N·m, with a fuel consumption of just 1.3L per 100 km.
I really enjoy driving the Roewe ei6 hybrid. The KERS system in the car is such an intelligent design. KERS stands for Kinetic Energy Recovery System. Simply put, when you brake or decelerate, it converts your car's inertial energy into electricity and stores it in the battery, preventing waste. I find it particularly handy in city driving with frequent stops and starts because the Roewe ei6's motor coordination is excellent. The transition during deceleration is smooth, unlike the abruptness of regular braking, which not only increases pure electric range but also reduces fuel consumption. Based on my experience, I estimate saving dozens of yuan on fuel each month while being more eco-friendly, making it highly practical for daily commutes. Friends often ask me what it's like to drive a hybrid, and I always say KERS is one of the key features—it makes the entire driving experience smoother and smarter, especially when combined with Roewe's automatic control algorithm, which adjusts the recovery intensity based on road conditions. If you own a new energy vehicle, remember to try the energy recovery mode and experience that efficient conversion firsthand.
