The Sendok Group has announced the debut of the CAM EC35, billed by the company as first fully-electric van to go on sale in the country. Previewed last week at an event in Genting Highlands, the company says the commercial offering, which is essentially a rebadged Dongfeng Sokon Automobile (DFSK) model, is targeted at logistics and courier companies looking to make the transition towards clean and responsible transportation.
Priced from RM130,000, the CAM EC35
measures in at 4,500 mm long, 1,680 mm wide and 1,985 mm tall (with a 3,050 mm
wheelbase), with a cargo area measuring 2,550 mm long, 1,480 mm wide and 1,280
mm tall. It’s equipped with an electric motor offering 80 hp and 200
Nm, and this is juiced by a 38.7 kWh lithium-ion phosphate battery, which
provides the vehicle with a range of 266 km (WLTP cycle).
Equipped with a CCS charging port, AC
charging takes five hours to get the battery from 20% to an 80% state of charge
(SOC), and eight hours from 0-100% via the 6.6 kW onboard charger. Meanwhile,
DC charging (at up to 40 kW) reduces the 20-80% SOC time to 80 minutes and to
2.5 hours from 0-100%. Standard equipment includes an eight-inch touchscreen
unit and reverse camera, as well as a driver’s airbag, reverse parking sensors
and ABS and EBD.
