Xiaomi has released its first hybrid off-road vehicle, the SkyNomad N70

The Chinese corporation Xiaomi has presented the full-size hybrid SUV SkyNomad N70, capable of traveling up to 505 kilometers exclusively on electric power.

The car is equipped with a traction battery with a capacity of 76 kilowatt-hours. The energy source during the journey is a generator based on a 1.5-liter gasoline internal combustion engine, which has no direct mechanical connection to the wheels. The vehicle's equipment allows generating about 4 kilowatt-hours of electricity for each liter of fuel consumed.

The two-motor N70 Max modification delivers a combined power output of 416 horsepower thanks to a front electric motor producing 282 horsepower and a rear one producing 134 horsepower. The electricity consumption is 15.85 kilowatt-hours per 100 kilometers.

SkyNomad series modifications are equipped with traction batteries with capacities of 52 or 76 kilowatt-hours. The flagship N90 Max version with a 76 kilowatt-hour battery provides an electric range of up to 464 kilometers, while the total range with gasoline reaches 1,705 kilometers. With a depleted battery, the fuel consumption is 6.26 liters per 100 kilometers.

Acceleration to 100 kilometers per hour takes 5.9 seconds, and the maximum speed is limited to 190 kilometers per hour. At fast charging stations, the vehicle replenishes its range by 285 kilometers in 15 minutes.

The cost of the N70 Max modification in China starts at $38,410, while the seven-seater N90 Max is priced at a minimum of $44,570.

Sales of the first versions started on July 30, and more affordable modifications will hit the market in September.
