The electric Chery J6 will gain a J6T CSH in Indonesia, based on the iCaur 03 EV. Unlike PHEV systems, the 1.5T engine acts solely as a range extender. The rear-wheel-drive version produces 252PS/300Nm—68PS and 80Nm more than the EV—achieving 0-100km/h in 7.9 seconds to a top speed of 160km/h. Range-extended powertrain provides new choice for Indonesian consumers and enriches Chery's local lineup.
