Chronology
Predecessor Hongqi H5

The Hongqi E-QM5 ( Chinese: 红旗E-QM5) is a purpose-built electric compact executive sedan made by Hongqi for online car-hailing. [3] [4]

Overview

Rear of the Hongqi E-QM5

The Hongqi E-QM5 was first shown at the 2021 Haikou International New Energy Vehicle and Connected Mobility Show. [5]

The E-QM5 shares the underpinnings of the Hongqi H5 gasoline-powered sedan with MacPherson struts at the front end and multi-link suspension at the rear, and dimensions of 5,040 mm/1,910 mm/1,569 mm, with a 2,990 mm wheelbase. [6]

A battery-swap-enabled version called E-QH5 was also planned. [7]

Performance

The Hongqi E-QM5 has a single electric motor that drives the front axle with 100 kW (134 hp; 136 PS), and NEDC-rated driving range of 431 kilometres (268 mi) supported by a 55 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery pack produced by Chongqing Fudi. [8] [9] Reports suggests that later versions of the model could be equipped with blade batteries supplied by BYD. [10] [4]

Design

The exterior design was done under the lead by ex-Rolls-Royce design head Giles Taylor, who has been hired by the Chinese automaker Hongqi since his departure from Rolls-Royce from 2019. [5]
