On March 12th, it was reported that the Avita 11 is now available for sale with a single motor, starting at 319,900 RMB, and is set to be launched on March 23rd. The new car will launch three models and is expected to settle in more than 20 offline Huawei stores in the first half of this year.
In terms of appearance, the new car uses an F-shaped headlamp combination on the front; the side lines are simple and elegant, and the contours are smooth, with two window lines forming a sharp V-shaped angle at the rear of the car, which correlates uniquely with the rounded rear wheel arches. The rear uses a penetrating tail light that creates a distinct visual hierarchy between the inverted trapezoid rear window and the stable lower part of the body; the wheels resemble flowers with five petals, giving the entire vehicle a high degree of recognition.
In terms of power, the key change is the cancellation of the front motor, only relying on the rear motor to drive. Equipped with a rear-mounted single motor from Huawei, the top speed is 200 km/h; matched with a 90.38 kW·h or 116.79 kW·h ternary lithium battery from Sichuan Times, the vehicle’s weight is lighter than the double-motor version, and the pure electric range increases to 600 km and 705 km.
Furthermore, the new car cancels the electric tailgate, and all models come standard with the HI Huawei full-stack intelligent car solution, CATL ternary lithium battery, and Huawei’s DriveOne dual-motor four-wheel drive system. It has an intelligent cabin developed based on the Huawei HarmonyOS and is equipped with the Huawei AOS intelligent driving operation system.
Avita Technology was renamed on May 20th, 2021, from Changan NIO New Energy Technology Co. Ltd., and was jointly created by Changan Automobile, Huawei, and CATL. Its first vehicle model, the Avita 11, is positioned as a pure electric mid-to-large-sized SUV developed based on the new generation intelligent electric platform CHN, and all models on sale are double-motor four-wheel drive versions, priced from 349,900 to 409,000 RMB.
As of March 2nd, the cumulative delivery volume of Avita 11 has exceeded 4,000 units. According to Avita’s product plan, in addition to the Avita 11 single-motor version, they will also release the Avita E12, positioned as a mid-to-large-sized sedan, which is expected to be equipped with the same powertrain as the Avita 11.
