What is the range of the Roewe ei5?
3 Answers
The Roewe ei5 has a range of 420 kilometers. Taking the 2021 Roewe ei5 as an example, it is a compact car with body dimensions of 4544mm in length, 1818mm in width, and 1521mm in height, a wheelbase of 2665mm, a minimum ground clearance of 150mm, a trunk capacity of 479 liters, and a curb weight of 1560kg. The 2021 Roewe ei5 features a MacPherson strut front suspension and a torsion beam rear suspension, with front-wheel drive. It is equipped with a permanent magnet synchronous motor and a fixed gear ratio transmission.
I've been driving the Roewe ei5 for almost two years. The official range is 410 kilometers, but in urban driving, it actually reaches around 350 kilometers, which is quite practical. In winter, with the heater on, it drops to just over 300 kilometers—batteries don't like the cold. The key is driving habits: gentle acceleration and avoiding high beams can extend the range a bit. On highways, power consumption is faster; driving 100 kilometers might reduce the range by 15%. I use fast-charging stations, reaching 80% in half an hour, and occasionally charge overnight at home with a standard charger. The battery warranty lasts 8 years, so maintenance is crucial as it degrades. I recommend testing the real range with a long trip when the car is new. For daily commutes, it's more than enough—one charge lasts a week, saving money and being eco-friendly. Before long trips, check charging station locations to avoid range anxiety.
The official range of the Roewe ei5 is 410 kilometers, which I find sufficient for my daily commute of just 20-30 kilometers. Charging once a week is more than enough. It saves a lot on fuel costs, with monthly electricity bills only around 100-200 yuan, much more economical than a gasoline car. Charging stations are easy to find in the city, available at shopping malls or workplaces, and a fast charge can top up most of the battery in half an hour. In summer, using the air conditioning doesn’t reduce the range too much, but in winter, the range drops slightly due to low temperatures. Battery health has a significant impact, so proper maintenance can extend its lifespan. A friend of mine also drives this model and reports that the actual range fluctuates between 340 and 380 kilometers, depending on road conditions and load. Smooth driving without rapid acceleration helps save energy. Overall, the experience is satisfying, and even a 300-kilometer round trip for weekend outings doesn’t cause range anxiety.
