The range-extended variant features a 1.5L range extender (77 kW) paired with a 200 kW electric motor and a 27.4 kWh battery, delivering a pure electric range of 175 km. Exterior design follows the brand’s “Wind Sculpture Aesthetics” philosophy, featuring a deployable rear spoiler, frameless doors, and flush door handles. Inside, the cabin offers three color schemes, 256-color ambient lighting, a 19-speaker audio system, and a zero-gravity passenger seat. For intelligent driving, the Alpha S5 is equipped with Qualcomm’s SA8775 chip and the Yuanjing intelligent driving assistance system, supporting urban and highway Navigation on Autopilot (NOA). It also includes a “Smart Driving Blue Indicator Light” to provide real-time driving status cues.
