Chery Exeed EX7 Range-Extender (REEV) Patented in India: 1,200 km Range

The Indian electric mobility space could be on the verge of welcoming a revolutionary powertrain alternative. Official design patents for the Chery Exeed EX7 have been registered in India. Built as a luxury Range-Extended Electric Vehicle (REEV), the EX7 eliminates public charging anxiety by combining a high-capacity electric battery with an onboard petrol generator delivering over 1,200 km of combined endurance.

How REEV Technology Solves India’s Charging Infrastructure Dilemma

1. 100% Electric Drive with Generator Backup

Unlike conventional parallel hybrids where the engine directly turns the wheels:

• The Exeed EX7’s wheels are driven exclusively by powerful electric traction motors (generating up to 340 hp in dual-motor AWD layout).
• A compact 1.5-litre high-efficiency turbo-petrol engine acts strictly as an onboard power generator to recharge the 35.8 kWh battery pack on the move.
• Delivers instantaneous electric torque and seamless acceleration with zero gearshift hesitation.

2. 200 km Pure EV Commutes & 1,200 km Intercity Touring

• Daily Commuting: Over 200 km of pure electric range on battery power alone, allowing owners to charge at home overnight and commute at zero fuel cost.
• Highway Road Trips: When the battery depletes on remote highways without fast chargers, the petrol generator seamlessly fires up to produce electricity, enabling continuous 1,200+ km journeys.

3. Executive Luxury Cabin

• Twin 15.6-inch OLED displays powered by high-speed neural automotive processors.
• Zero-gravity passenger lounge seating with active cooling, heating, and Shiatsu massage modes.
• Level 2+ autonomous driving suite with 12 ultrasonic sensors and dual LiDAR pods.
