Five energy-management modes are available: Forced EV, EV Priority, Hybrid, Fuel First and Forced Charge.
iCAUR has released more technical details for the V25, which sits between the smaller V23 and larger V27.
Both battery-electric (BEV) and range-extended electric (REEV) versions have already been confirmed, with the V25 intended to cover a broader range of uses than either of its siblings.
The dual-motor version uses iCaur’s i-AWD system, which can switch between two-wheel and all-wheel drive depending on road conditions while adjusting torque distribution between the wheels. Its two motors produce a combined 335kW (455PS) and 505Nm.
For the REEV, iCaur has provided more information on its Golden REEV system. The company claims a maximum thermal efficiency of 44.5% and a fuel-to-electricity conversion rate of 3.71kWh per litre.
Five energy-management modes are available: Forced EV, EV Priority, Hybrid, Fuel First and Forced Charge.
Earlier Chinese regulatory filings list a 33.67kWh LFP battery for the REEV, with 145 to 150km of WLTC electric range depending on version. The same filings list a 115kW 1.5-litre turbo range extender and a top speed of 180km/h.
Reports have also quoted a 0 to 100km/h time of 5.9 seconds for the dual-motor version, along with more than 1,200km of combined range.
The V25 measures 4,636mm long, 1,920mm wide and 1,855mm tall, with a 2,820mm wheelbase. Compared with the V23, it is 416mm longer and gets a proper three-seat rear bench, placing it more clearly between the V23 and V27 in iCaur’s expanding SUV range.
Its design stays close to the V23 formula, with an upright body, round LED headlights, clamshell bonnet, flared wheelarches and a side-hinged tailgate carrying a full-size spare wheel. Wheels of up to 21 inches are available.
Customisation is another major part of the V25’s positioning. More than 20 factory-designed modification interfaces are built into the vehicle, while maximum towing capacity is rated at 1.8 tonnes and V2L output at 6kW.
iCaur says these interfaces are intended to allow owners to personalise the vehicle without modifying critical battery, motor, chassis or safety systems.
The cabin has 41 storage compartments and up to 1,549 litres of cargo capacity. BEV versions additionally receive a front trunk and 22 litres of underfloor storage.
Available equipment includes a panoramic sunroof, heated and ventilated front seats, electric seat adjustment, driver memory and a 15-speaker audio system.
Level 2 driver assistance includes adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, forward collision warning, autonomous emergency braking, blind spot detection and driver monitoring. A 540-degree surround-view camera and automatic parking assist are also available.
Local launch has yet to be announced, although there are now plenty of signs pointing in that direction.
A camouflaged V25 was spotted testing locally in August, while four examples appeared in JPJ registration data in September, with two were recorded as electric and the other two as hybrid.
Early registrations such as these are typically for evaluation purposes.
