/PRNewswire/ — LEPAS, the brand new new energy vehicle (NEV) brand, is designed for global markets and is based on the strategic, intelligent LEX platform. As a result of Chery Group’s global technology ecosystem, LEX sets new standards for next-generation NEV platforms and offers cross-generational leadership in holistic vehicle intelligence. With a completely new platform, a completely new architecture and a completely new user experience, LEX directly addresses long-standing user problems – eliminating fragmented intelligence, alleviating charging anxiety and enabling seamless transitions between combustion and electric power – thereby creating the intelligent foundation for LEPAS as the preferred brand for the new elegant lifestyle.
LEPAS Defines “Elegant Driving” with Its Intelligent LEX Platform
As the global NEV industry enters a new phase of competition, the focus is shifting from isolated performance metrics to electronic and electrical architecture (EEA) and user experience across all scenarios. The LEX platform is exactly the answer to this change. Built on the all-new EEA 5.1 electronic and electrical architecture, LEX leverages an integrated two-zone, two-center solution that delivers three key benefits: hardware standardization, ongoing software upgrades and seamless data interoperability. This architecture enables efficient coordination between intelligent cockpit, intelligent driving and powertrain control, solving long-standing problems such as fragmented electronics and limited upgradeability.
Using EEA 5.1, the LEX platform achieves a precise balance between elegance and driving dynamics. The intelligent chassis was tuned by a professional European engineering team and includes advanced technologies such as active suspension and electronically controlled damping. Combined with a body torsional stiffness of 23,800 N•m/degree – significantly higher than comparable vehicles – and a three-stage half-shaft design, the vehicle offers sedan-level ride comfort as well as agile, confident handling, creating a real feeling of unity between driver and machine.
In terms of powertrain, LEX supports multiple energy solutions. The combustion engine achieves a thermal efficiency of 45.79% with fuel consumption of just 4.9l/100km in trickle charge mode. The 800 V high-voltage fast charging system significantly shortens charging times, while a dual-source heat pump system with a wide temperature range ensures reliable operation down to -40°C, covering a wide range of application scenarios worldwide.
Thanks to its compatibility with multiple powertrains and its high global adaptability, the LEX platform enables rapid development of all-electric, hybrid and other forms of energy. More than just a technical architecture, LEX is the consistent definition of the “elegant driving” category by LEPAS and uses intelligent technology to deliver confident handling, almost imperceptible comfort and worry-free range.
