On March 1st, the e-Pike e8 Plus made its official debut on e-Pike's website, marking an exciting new chapter in the Chinese electric vehicle market. With a starting price of $17,860 (approximately), the e8 Plus is set to hit the road with its impressive range of over 1,300km (800 miles) on a single charge.
In a bid to offer customers even more value for money, e-Pike has announced a limited-time offer: buy now and receive a complimentary 10,000 yuan ($1,365 USD) shopping bag, filled with perks such as 21-inch premium noise-cancelling tires, double-layer side windows for improved insulation, and an innovative aircraft-inspired sunshade roof. This incredible deal is exclusively available on e-Pike's website for a limited time.
Looking under the hood, the e8 Plus will be powered by a 1.5-liter turbocharged engine that serves as both a starter motor and an electric motor, providing a potent boost to its electric motor. The rear-mounted lithium-ion battery pack boasts an incredible energy density of up to 250 watts per kilogram, giving it a claimed range of 210 kilometers (130 miles) on the CLTC test cycle.
However, for those who want the full electric driving experience, e-Pike has also announced the availability of its plug-in hybrid variant. The e8 Plus PHEV packs all-wheel drive and produces a total output of over 200 horsepower from its powerful twin electric motor setup – a testament to e-Pike’s innovative engineering talents.
