Overview

The Lepas L6 EV is the battery-electric version of Chery’s mid-size Lepas SUV, twinned with the Chery Tiggo 7 on the new-generation LEX platform. It measures 4,570 mm long, 1,852 mm wide, and 1,683 mm tall on a 2,700 mm wheelbase, and shares its body with the plug-in hybrid L6 sold alongside it.

A single electric motor drives the front wheels, producing 242 hp (178 kW) and 275 Nm of torque, enough for a 0-100 km/h time of around 7.9 seconds. The lithium iron phosphate battery is rated at 65 to 67 kWh depending on market, giving 510 km of range on the Chinese NEDC cycle, or an estimated 434 km on the stricter European WLTP cycle. DC fast charging tops out at 120 kW, enough for a 30-80 percent top-up in about 20 minutes.

The cabin runs a 12.3-inch portrait touchscreen and a slim digital instrument cluster, with a panoramic glass roof and an eight-speaker sound system among the standard fit. Luggage space includes a frunk under the bonnet in addition to the rear boot, a layout shared with the plug-in hybrid L6.

Lepas premiered the L6 EV in Bangkok in March 2026 for the Thai market, with Malaysia confirmed to follow and an Australian launch targeted for the final quarter of 2026.
