Chery
Arrizo 7 hybrid
This
is the new Chery Arrizo 7e, a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV)
based on the petrol powered Chery Arrizo 7 sedan. The Arrizo 7e will be launched on the
Chinese car market in early 2016. Price including green energy subsidies will start around 150.000 yuan.
Dash

plug-in hybrid system consists of a 126 hp 1.6-liter liter petrol engine
and a 75 hp electric motor, making for a well-powered hybrid car.

takes 5 hours. Chery claims a fuel consumption of 2.2 liters per 100
kilometers. Top speed is claimed to be 180 km/h and the 7e weights a hefty 1590 kg.
