The actual range of the K-Lev is 262km. Below are specific details about the K-Lev: 1. Interior: The second-row seats of the K-Lev CLEVER New Four-Seater Super Edition can comfortably accommodate two adults, easily meeting the needs of four people traveling together. Additionally, it features class-leading configurations such as rare integrated leather sports seats, smart window lift with anti-ear-popping function, high-fidelity speaker audio system, and full-car insulated glass. 2.

In terms of battery safety, it uses high-quality battery cells from CATL, equipped with an aviation-grade battery thermal runaway management system, leading its class in reliability. The battery, designed based on the stringent UL2580 standard, meets the highest civilian IP67 waterproof and dustproof rating.
My Cori EV gets an actual range of about 160 to 180 kilometers in the city, which is somewhat less than the official 260 kilometers, mainly due to road conditions and driving habits during daily use. I commute to work, with a one-way distance of around 15 kilometers. If I drive steadily without using the air conditioning, I can usually last five days before needing to recharge. However, if there's traffic congestion or aggressive acceleration, the range drops faster. In winter, extra caution is needed—using the heater can reduce the range to just over 140 kilometers, so I try to charge in advance to avoid trouble. The car is compact and agile, making parking easy, which is great for city use, though it's best to opt for slow charging to protect the battery.
