The battery is provided by CATL. There are 4 battery packs of lithium iron phosphate with a total power of 236.7kWh. The vehicle can drive 140km after being fully charged in half an hour by a fast charger.
Instead of driving with a non-wheel motor, Dayun E8 electric heavy-duty truck adopts the same driving mode as traditional vehicle.
