Customizable Freedom: Tailored to Entrepreneurs

As new economic models such as mobile vending, live streaming, and small-scale farming emerge, entrepreneurs need vehicles that adapt to varied demands.

The Zhiguang EV answers this call with innovative features:

 • Endless Customization Possibilities:

Equipped with 20 standardized mounting points, it supports accessories like storage racks, foldable tables, cup holders, and phone mounts. The 2.4m² roof rack expands storage for larger needs, making the vehicle a true “blank canvas” for creativity.

 • Reliable External Power Supply:

The EV includes multiple power outputs to support high-demand devices. A 220V charging port with 3.3kW capacity powers appliances like cooking equipment, while 12V DC outlets in the front and rear compartments handle smaller devices. Entrepreneurs can confidently run their “mobile shops” without power interruptions.

Space Optimization: Flexible and Practical Design

The Zhiguang EV prioritizes functionality with its innovative space management:

 • Modular Interior: Fully reclining passenger seats create a flat loading surface, transforming the initial 527L trunk space into a massive 1,117L capacity—enough to hold up to 72 crates of beverages.

 • Smart Access Design: Dual sliding doors provide wide, easy entry points, while the rear door opens to nearly 90° for seamless loading. With a low threshold height of just 569mm, heavy goods can be loaded with minimal effort.

Compact and Agile: Made for All Terrains

The Zhiguang EV’s compact dimensions (3685mm long, 1530mm wide, and 1765mm tall) and ultra-narrow body make it perfect for navigating crowded city streets, narrow alleyways, and rural paths. Smart aerodynamic features, including a low-drag design, reduce energy consumption to just 10.1kWh per 100km, with a running cost of only 6 cents per kilometer.

Safety First: Advanced Battery Technology

Partnering with top-tier battery manufacturers, the Zhiguang EV uses state-of-the-art battery systems tested rigorously for reliability. An around-the-clock cloud-based safety monitoring system ensures optimal performance, issuing alerts within 2 seconds in case of issues like thermal runaway. This proactive approach minimizes potential risks and maximizes user peace of mind.
