The Chery eQ1 is a battery electric city car that is manufactured by Chinese manufacturer Chery.
The eQ1 was originally planned to be called the Chery @ant during the reveal in 2016, but was later given the eQ1 name in line with the Chery eQ. The Chinese nickname was still the "Ant" during the official launch in 2017.
Originally code-named the Chery S51 EV, the Chery eQ1 is powered by a permanent magnet synchronous electric motor [2] putting out 30 kW (40 hp) and 120 N⋅m (89 lb⋅ft). The top speed of the eQ1 is 100 km/h (62 mph). [2] [4] [5]
The Chery eQ1 was available as part of the EvCard electric car-sharing service in China as of 2018.
The battery capacity has been upgraded since the launch. [note 1] For the 2019 model year, the stated battery capacity is at least 30.6 kWh, [2] with the latest version reportedly having a 38 kWh battery. [3]
Typically for Chinese cars, the manufacturer provides only the range according to the NEDC cycle, which overestimates the range much more than the EPA cycle. The stated NEDC range is 301 kilometres (187 mi). [2]
Charging takes 5–7 hours using a 6.6 kW charger, while fast charging from 30% to 80% takes 30–50 minutes. [2]
