Maxus Unveils Europe’s First AWD Electric Pickup
Maxus, an electric pickup manufactured in China, was the first of its kind in Europe. Its release came before that of Toyota, Ford, and a number of other manufacturers. With a range of up to 267 miles (430 km), the new Maxus eTerron 9 is marginally bigger than a Ford Ranger.
Chinese automaker SAIC Motor acquired Maxus in 2010 from its original owner, the British van manufacturer LDV Group.
eTerron 9 Powers 125 kW Front Motor, 200 kW Rear
This week at the IAA Hanover Auto Show in Germany, the new eTerron 9 electric pickup was unveiled by the Chinese company. It comes after the Maxus T90EV, the first rear-wheel drive (RWD) electric pickup to be sold in the United Kingdom.
Maximum power for the new eTerron 9 comes from a pair of electric motors, with the front motor producing 125 kW/170 hp and the rear motor producing 200 kW/272 hp. It has a maximum cargo capacity of roughly 1,400 lb (620 kg) and can tow up to 7,700 lbs.
The Maxus eTerron 9 has a WLTP rating of up to 267 miles (430 km) thanks to its 102 kWh LFP battery. According to Top Gear, it can be quickly charged (20% to 80%) at fast charging stations using up to 115 kW in approximately 40 minutes.
All-Terrain System Offers Six Custom Driving Modes
With the incorporated All-Terrain System (ATS), you may customize your drive in six different modes, including Normal, Mud, Sand, and more.
When compared to competing electric vehicles, Maxus claims an 18% increase in cold weather range because to an enhanced venting system and battery design.
To power work sites, camping gear, tools, or other external gadgets, the electric pickup also has bi-directional charging.
According to Electrek, the Maxus eTerron 9 is marginally longer than Ford's Ranger, measuring 5.37 meters (18 feet).
Orders Begin in October, Deliveries Set for 2025
In October, orders will be accepted for the first all-wheel-drive electric pickup in Europe by Maxus. January 2025 is when we expect to start shipping.
The new model is anticipated to be priced higher than the T90EV, which begins at £49,950 ($66,300) in the UK before VAT, although exact figures are not yet available. According to Maxus, additional information will be disclosed soon.
