Overview

The Maxus EV30 was launched on the Chinese car market in January 2019 as a mid-size electric distribution van of the Maxus brand.

Specifications

The Maxus EV30 is a standard 2-seater panel van and is equipped with a powertrain that produces 94 hp (70 kW) of power and 220 N.m (162 lb.ft) of torque powering the front wheels. The EV30 is capable of a top speed of 90 km/h (56 mph), and accelerates to 50 km/h in 5 seconds. The EV30 for the Chinese market is a pure electric vehicle (BEV) that is equipped with a 35 kWh battery mounted under the load floor and delivering a range of 235 km (147 miles) rated by NEDC. [1]

As a purpose-built electric van design, the EV30 is complete with aluminum monocoque construction and a composite front end. [2] The EV30 has a ground clearance of 145 mm (6.0 inches), and comes standard with 15-inch steel wheels. The maximum payload capacity for the Chinese market model is 830 kg (1,830 lbs) and the load volume is 5 cubic meters. As of 2019, pricing for the Maxus EV30 in China ranges from 128,700 to 144,900 yuan before incentives. [1] The EV30 is equipped with a MacPherson strut and leaf-spring configuration that is more focused on load taking. [3]

In selected markets, the EV30 would be offered in both short and long-wheelbase EV30L variants which carry 4.8 and 6.3 cubic meters respectively. The short and long-wheelbase variants are equivalent to traditional small and medium-van segments. The short-wheelbase variant measures 4.5m with a payload of 905 kg and the long-wheelbase variant increased the wheelbase by 375mm and reached a length of 5.1m with a payload of 1,020 kg. [3]

Interior features

There were no options for trim levels for the EV30's interior available. The interior has standard equipment including air conditioning, electric windows, USB & Bluetooth connectivity, storage, cup holders, adjustable electric door mirrors, a multifunction steering wheel, and an eight-inch touchscreen infotainment system with support for Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for export models. Additionally, a reverse camera with rear parking sensors, cruise control, six cargo bay floor-mounted strapping rings and a cargo bay solid partition with a glass panel option to separate the cabin. [4]

Overseas markets

United Kingdom

The Maxus EV30 is sold as the Maxus eDeliver 3 in the UK starting in 2020. Compared to the Chinese EV30, the eDeliver 3 is a right-hand drive and features barn doors for the tailgate.

There are two battery packs offered on the eDeliver 3 for the UK; a 35kWh and a 52.5kWh, returning a range of 98 miles and 150 miles respectively rated via the NEDC cycle. A rapid charge to around 90% of the battery takes 45 minutes, while a Type 2 full battery charge would take seven hours. [3] Three-wheelbase variants are available in the UK which include a short or long-wheelbase panel van and an extended-wheelbase platform chassis. The short-wheelbase variant has a cargo volume of 4.8 cubic meters and a maximum payload capacity of 905 kg, while the long-wheelbase variant offers 6.3 cubic meters and 1,020 kg.
