New Energy Vehicles (NEVs) in China

Not about power. EV’s are heavier due to their batteries -> greater chance of getting stuck in the mud.

these are PHEVs, so the battery packs are not as large. I took a look at Tank 500 numbers and the pure ICE version seems to have similar curb weight as the PHEV version.

Also, we have seen Bao-5 in some really off-road challenges and they perform better than all the petro cars.

BYD will be producing a lot of batteries for FAW and Audi under its new JV in Jilin province.
