Chery is developing an upcoming battery electric, range-extended, and plug-in hybrid full-size luxury SUV to be produced at the Chery Jaguar Land Rover plant in Changshu as the first vehicle sold under the new Freelander marque named after the Land Rover Freelander.
Overview
The Freelander EV serves as the first brand of the marque of the same name. It is a full-size SUV measuring at least 5100 mm in length. It was initially developed for Exeed before being transferred over to Freelander.[1]
Design
The design of the Freelander EV and the Concept 97 were influenced by the original Land Rover Freelander. It has an inclined D-pillar that was also used for the 3-door version of the original Freelander. The black trim on the front end and the headlights were influenced by the Freelander's 2003 facelift.
