What is the range of the Geometry A?
2 Answers
The range of the Geometry A is approximately 410 kilometers for the standard range version and 500 kilometers for the long-range version, as per the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology. Below is some relevant information about the Geometry A: 1. The Geometry A is a pure electric vehicle with a single motor configuration. The motor has a maximum power of 120 kW and a maximum torque of 250 Nm. 2. The Geometry A uses ternary lithium batteries across all models. Most pure electric vehicles utilize ternary lithium batteries due to their higher energy density and lighter weight. The cathode of ternary lithium batteries is made from ternary materials, with some using nickel, cobalt, and manganese, while others use nickel, cobalt, and aluminum. 3. The Geometry A features a MacPherson independent suspension at the front and a torsion beam non-independent suspension at the rear. The MacPherson independent suspension is widely used due to its simple structure, low cost, and compact size. It consists of a single L-shaped control arm, which takes up minimal space in the engine compartment. 4. The Geometry A is a compact car, and most compact cars use torsion beam non-independent suspensions for the rear. This type of suspension is simple in structure, compact in size, and occupies minimal space.
As a frequent driver of the Geometry A, I can attest that the official range is rated at around 550 kilometers based on WLTC standard test conditions. In real-world driving, however, I've found that the actual range depends on multiple factors—higher speeds drain the battery faster, reducing range to 300-400 km on highways, while low-speed city driving with AC on can get close to 450 km. Battery temperature plays a significant role; cold winter air can slash range by 20%, and summer AC usage also accelerates depletion. I recommend regular battery health checks, maintaining proper tire pressure, and driving steadily in ECO mode to conserve power. Over time, battery degradation is inevitable—after 3-4 years, range may drop to just over 400 km, making diligent maintenance crucial. Charging habits matter too: fast charging to 80% in half an hour is a convenient option. Overall, with sensible usage, achieving 500 km is realistic.
