The top speed of the Little Ant ranges between 88km/h and 110km/h. Little Ant Powertrain: The 2019 Little Ant performs quite well in terms of power, offering two driving modes: ECO and SPORT. In ECO mode, the maximum speed is around 88km/h, while in SPORT mode, the peak speed can reach 110km/h, with a 0-50km acceleration time of just 6 seconds. These figures are more than sufficient for urban driving. Chery Little Ant: The Chery Little Ant is a compact pure electric vehicle produced by Chery New Energy. Inheriting the "Technology Chery" gene, it is built on the LFS pure electric platform. The Little Ant 150,000 Fans Edition, launched on September 30, 2020, is a commemorative model celebrating Chery New Energy's milestone of producing and selling over 150,000 Little Ant vehicles.

I've been commuting with my Little Ant for a while now. It runs steadily on city roads, with a top speed of around 100 km/h. This speed is completely sufficient for daily commuting, as urban speed limits are mostly below 80 km/h. On weekends, when taking my family to the suburbs via highways, it can easily keep up with mainstream traffic. The electric car actually has impressive acceleration, especially from 0-60 km/h, often getting ahead of others at traffic lights. Of course, it's not advisable to maintain top speed for long periods, as the lightweight body of this microcar can feel a bit unstable in strong winds at high speeds, and the range noticeably decreases. I usually find driving at 80-90 km/h most comfortable, with the air conditioning on, still achieving over 200 km of range.

We bought the Little Ant mainly for shuttling our kids to school, so we don't have high requirements for speed. The official claimed top speed is 100 km/h, and in actual driving it can reach between 95 to 100 km/h. It's absolutely more than enough for city driving, easily handling the 40 km/h speed-limited zones near schools. However, I'd like to remind new owners that this small car has a relatively light chassis. When driving above 80 km/h, the steering wheel becomes noticeably lighter, so extra caution is needed when turning. On rainy days, I usually don't exceed 70 km/h - safety comes first. I've tried it on the highway a few times, and maintaining around 90 km/h is the most economical, with wind noise still within acceptable limits.

As a micro electric vehicle, the Ant's performance is quite impressive. With a motor power of around 30 kilowatts and a top speed of 100 km/h, it outperforms many models in its class. It's perfectly suitable for city commuting, with the motor's torque response being very prompt during acceleration, often allowing it to lead by half a car length when the traffic light turns green. Maintaining 80 km/h on expressways is quite effortless, and the body stability is better than expected. However, don't expect aggressive driving; body roll is noticeable during sharp turns, and the emergency braking distance is relatively long. It's most suitable for urban commuting scenarios, where stop-and-go driving is particularly energy-efficient.

Small electric vehicles like the Little Ant are actually designed for flexibility and practicality, with average speed performance. The tested top speed can reach 100 kilometers per hour, which is completely sufficient for daily use. What satisfies me the most is the acceleration below 60 km/h—the motor responds very directly, making lane changes and overtaking very smooth. However, there are two things to note when driving on highways: first, power consumption increases significantly after exceeding 80 km/h, and second, the body feels unstable in windy weather. I mainly use it for commuting, covering a 20-kilometer one-way trip at a speed of 60-70 km/h, which takes about half an hour—both energy-efficient and safe.

Having followed electric vehicles for several years, the speed design of the Little Ant is actually quite reasonable. A top speed of 100 kilometers per hour not only meets the demands of urban expressways but also controls energy consumption. The most comfortable driving experience is in the medium to low speed range, with acceleration from 0 to 60 taking just a few seconds, making it particularly agile at traffic lights. I've driven it on highways a few times, where wind resistance has a greater impact compared to sedans, so around 90 km/h is the most efficient speed range. It might not be the best choice for frequent long-distance travel, but as an urban commuter, this speed fully meets daily needs. With convenient charging, a daily activity radius of 200 kilometers is no problem at all.
