Chery has recently introduced the iCar V23, a compact all-electric SUV that combines retro off-road design with modern EV technology. The vehicle comes in three trims, offering both rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive options, with a maximum CLTC range of 501 km. Starting at just 13,700 USD, the iCar V23 is an affordable and stylish option for eco-conscious consumers.
The exterior of the iCar V23 features a classic off-road look, with a smoked front grille, round headlights, and a squared-off silhouette reminiscent of iconic off-roaders. The roof luggage rack, hidden door handles, and external rear storage container add to its adventurous appeal. With six color options available, including orange, black, gray, green, silver, and white, there is something to suit everyone’s taste.
Measuring 4,220 mm in length, 1,915 mm in width, and 1,845 mm in height, with a 2,735 mm wheelbase, the iCar V23 is compact yet practical. It boasts impressive approach and departure angles, as well as a minimum ground clearance of 210 mm for light off-road capabilities.
Inside, the cabin of the iCar V23 is a blend of ruggedness and modernity. The white and black color scheme, straight lines, and circular knobs create a contemporary feel, while the 15.4-inch 2.5K central touchscreen offers advanced infotainment functions, including support for CarPlay.
The vehicle’s practicality is evident in its 2×2 seating arrangement, foldable rear seats, and up to 744 liters of flat cargo space. Electrically adjustable front seats, a seven-speaker audio system, under-seat compartments, and a 90-liter underfloor trunk space enhance the in-car experience.
Customization is a key feature of the iCar V23, with 24 modular upgrade interfaces allowing users to personalize the vehicle to their liking. The extensive driver assistance systems, powered by advanced chips and cameras, offer high-speed navigation, emergency lane keeping, traffic jam assistance, and parking assistance.
The iCar V23 is available in three configurations: the Youth Edition with RWD, RWD, and AWD. The AWD version accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.5 seconds and supports fast charging, with a 3.3 kW external discharge function for powering external devices. With its affordable price, stylish design, and eco-friendly technology, the iCar V23 is set to make a mark in the electric SUV market.
