We learned from Geely officials that the LEVC L380 prototype vehicle has completed rolling off the production line. The car is positioned as a pure electric MPV and is built based on SOA architecture. Its name comes from the Airbus A380, which is the world’s largest wide-body passenger aircraft. It also indicates that this car will have a very spacious interior space. At the same time, this car will be available in 3-seater and 8-seater layouts.
From the appearance, the front of the car is very wide, using the currently popular closed front face and split headlight set. The top is a three-section LED light strip, and the bottom is the high and low-beam light set. The overall style is more sci-fi. The design of the air guide groove under the light group and the silver decorative strip under the front of the car greatly enhance the sense of hierarchy of the front of the car.
Looking at the side of the car, the car’s body length and wheelbase are both considerable, and it is expected to bring good interior space performance. The car adopts an all-black roof and ABC pillar design, which balances the visual proportions of the side of the body and makes the huge body look less bulky. In addition, the car is equipped with large multi-spoke wheels, and the door handles have a hidden design. At the rear, the car adopts a through-type taillight design that is thick at both ends and thin in the middle. The visual effect when lit up at night is very cool.
In May 2023, LEVC, which has received continued support from Geely’s globalization system, collaborated with the Chinese and British R&D teams to launch the world’s first space-oriented technology architecture SOA. The SOA architecture has ultra-large bandwidth to support L2~L4 smart driving, 1000+Tops computing power upgrades, and 5G gigabit transmission. At the same time, based on China, Europe and the UK vehicle certification regulations, it adopts an original flat floor design, a 1.9-meter integrated stepless slide rail and pure The electrical architecture is the first to have a sunken tail design.
It is understood that LEVC is the abbreviation of London Electric Vehicle Company. It is a British travel brand acquired by Geely. It is a parallel brand of Geely Group along with Zeekr and Volvo. LEVC shares Geely’s global supply system. As a global high-end new energy brand, the new MPV model launched is likely to be high-end models like the Zeekr 009 and Volvo EMP90.
