#Chinese #automotive manufacturing is growing rapidly. Many brands have emerged, in fact they are the result of collaborations with large companies.  One of them is IM (Intelligence in Motion) Motors.  Most recently they released a new product called LS6 which is an electric SUV with advanced technology.  Introduced last August at the Chengdu Auto Show, in fact up to 25 thousand units have been ordered.  For your information, IM Motors itself is a joint venture of Alibaba Group, #SAIC Motor and Zhangjiang Hi-Tech which was founded in 2020. So it is not surprising that products are produced using the latest technology. 

The Chinese name is Zhiji Motors, which previously released two models, namely the LS7 SUV and L7 sedan. 

The latest model is priced in the range of $31,500 (Rp. 493 million) to $41,090 (Rp. 644 million). 

In terms of dimensions, it is 4,904 mm long, 1,988 mm wide and 1,669 mm high.  The wheelbase is set at 2,950 mm. 

Its shape is full of rounded silhouettes which aim to channel air optimally.  Interestingly, the design looks like it was adopted from a spaceship like in the Hollywood film Predator.  The thing is, many components have unique shapes.  The main lights, for example, have water drop-shaped LEDs.  It is symmetrical with openings in the bumper that appear to be intended as fog lights.  The rear sloping roof emphasizes the fastback concept.  Meanwhile, at the rear, massive LED combination lights are installed as wide as the body. There are not many strokes or complex line details. Then the sides appear clean thanks to the hidden door handles. 

The legs are reinforced by fan-bladed slatted rims with circular holes.  The size itself is 21 inches wrapped in round rubber with a profile of 235/45 at the front and 265/40 at the rear. 

The car also has unique color choices, namely white, green, yellow and pink.  The interior is no less attractive. 

The futuristic feel is presented very thickly.  The steering wheel is not a complete circle, but rather like an airplane steering wheel.  Then the head unit and instrument panel are combined in a massive 42 inch screen that stretches along the dashboard to the front of the passenger.  This is coupled with a large digital panel on the center console which seems to be the control center.  The operating system that manages it is IM OS 2.0 made by IM Motors itself.  Not only that, the car's cockpit is reinforced with Nvidia Orin ships for the needs of an advanced driving assistance system (ADAS).  The level of protection for sensor users is said to be complete and at a fairly high level.  IM Motors even plans to launch fully autonomous functions for highway driving this year covering 333 cities in China.  Testing of the driverless driving system for urban needs will begin testing at the end of 2023. Regarding the mechanical heart, the IM LS6 has two drive options, namely four wheels (four wheels drive) and front wheels (front wheel drive).  Of course, each electric kitchen has different specifications.  Front-wheel drive relies on a 340 hp electric motor with a top speed of 200 km/hour.  Meanwhile, all-wheel drive utilizes a double dynamo which creates 787 hp and a torque of 800 Nm.  Based on data, acceleration from zero to 100 km/h is achieved in 3.48 seconds and the top speed is 252 km/h.

The power supply that supplies electricity is made by Contemporary Amperex Technology Co., Limited (CATL) in the form of lithium with various capacities.  The smallest is 71.2 kWh, then 83 kWh, 83.3 kWh and the highest is 100 kWh.  In sequence, the cruising range is 560 km, 590 km, 630 km and 702 km based on pure electric NEDC.  IM LS6 also supports fast charging (fast charging) high voltage 800V.  Where 5 minutes of charging can provide the ability to travel as far as 200 km.  15 minutes of charging is equivalent to cruising 500 km.
