1 on the last day of October, Ora ’s new pure electric coupe Lightning Cat was officially launched. The new car offers two powers: single motor and dual motor, with a total of 4 configuration models, with an official guide price of 189,800-269,800 yuan. As a coupe, the Lightning Cat has a very distinctive appearance and also has a 4-second acceleration result, which is quite highlighted. In terms of appearance creation, the official positioned Lightning Cat as a "super streamlined pure electric coupe". The appearance of the whole vehicle adopts a lot of smooth and round lines, which is fashionable and dynamic, with a bit of retro flavor. In addition, the front of the Lightning Cat is obviously similar to that of Porsche , and the taillights are very similar to Bentley , which enhances the high-end look, but also brings great controversy to it.
In fact, this is not the first time that Ora's products have been questioned because of their appearance. The Ora Good Cat currently on sale has also caused quite a lot of controversy, because one has a Porsche-like front face, and the other is very similar to Volkswagen Beetle . Although there is no dispute over appearance infringement of these products at present, and it is also done by former Porsche designers, it seems legitimate, but it always makes people feel disgusting.
In terms of size, the new car is positioned as a mid-sized sedan, with body length, width and height of 4871/1862/1500mm, and the wheelbase is 2870mm, which is closer to Xiaopeng P7, but the wheelbase is much shorter than the latter. From the side, the Lightning Cat's body outline is smooth and graceful, and the tail with a large sloping back brings the fashion and sportiness of Coupe.
Inside the car, Lightning Cat created a supercar-like embracing cockpit. The large area of leather decoration and the T-shaped hollow center console are matched with each other, and are also equipped with physical buttons with key texture, which is quite textured and high-end. It is officially called "light luxury space". In terms of configuration, the new car is equipped with a 10.25-inch LCD instrument + a 12.3-inch floating central control screen, which enhances the sense of technology.
In addition, Lightning Cat provides ORA-PILOT 3.0 intelligent assisted driving system, with 28 sensors, vision cameras, and sensing radars, which can realize HWA+NOH high-speed pilot assisted driving function, active safety system and automatic parking system , which is also very interesting in intelligent driving assistance.
power, Lightning Cat provides two versions of single motor two-wheel drive and dual motor four-wheel drive. The maximum power of a single motor model is 150kW, the maximum power of a dual motor model is 300kW, the maximum torque of a is 680Nm, and the acceleration of 000 is only 4.3 seconds. In terms of battery life, its CLTC range is 555km, 705km and 600km respectively, with a high start and a variety of choices.
is written at the end: Putting aside the controversial appearance, the Lightning Cat is actually very interesting in all aspects, especially the interior is full of high-end sense, strong power and excellent performance, and its battery life is not inferior to the same-class models. But it is precisely this appearance that makes the new car very risky. If the market can accept it, it is considered to have found the right shortcut; if the market cannot accept it, it will have a significant impact on Ora Auto, which already has few models.
