For the all-wheel-drive model, the front axle has an electric motor with the peak power of 85 kW (114 hp; 116 PS), and peak torque of 255 N⋅m (188 lb⋅ft), while the rear axle consists of two electric motors, with a combined peak power of 137 kW (184 hp; 186 PS), and peak torque of 410 N⋅m (300 lb⋅ft), adding up to a total of 302 hp (225 kW; 306 PS) and 665 N⋅m (490 lb⋅ft) of torque for the all-wheel-drive model.[3][4] As for the driving performance, SAIC claims the top speed of 180 km/h (110 mph).[5]

A kinetic energy recovery system is installed to improve range.

Rising Marvel R

[edit]

The Rising Marvel R was unveiled as a concept car in May 2020, and the production version debuted during the 2020 Guangzhou Auto Show in November 2020. The Marvel R is the first car to feature Roewe's new R logo and the first product in the R-Line, followed by the Roewe R ER6 which is based on the Roewe i6 and would be available on the market first.

The Marvel R retains the overall shape of the Marvel X but gets a reworked front and rear for cleaner electric vehicle looks and aerodynamics. Roewe has co-developed the Marvel R with Huawei and the electronic system is built on the Barong 5000 technology platform equipped with V2X smart travel tech and creates a 5G smart cockpit. SAIC Motor Corporation, the parent company of Rising Auto, has been cooperating with Huawei since December 2018.[7]

In March 2021, it was announced that the vehicle will be sold as the MG Marvel R in the European market.[8][9] The MG Marvel R features a sizeable trunk, 19.4-inch portrait touch screen, 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in 4.9 seconds and top speed of 200 km/h (120 mph).
