• HiPhi X luxury electric SUV obtains EU homologation
• Features advanced technology including programmable headlights and smart fragrance system
• HiPhi plans to launch in Europe, starting with HiPhi X, followed by HiPhi Z

Luxury Chinese EV brand HiPhi has obtained approval from TÜV SÜD, a technical service provider, to introduce its revolutionary HiPhi X into the European market.

The HiPhi X features cutting-edge technology, such as PML programmable headlights and an intelligent automatic door system.

Its powertrain combines 220kW dual motors front and rear, allowing for 0-62mph (100km/h) in 3.9 seconds, and with motor efficiency of 97.2% – claimed to be among the best in its class.

The vehicle approval and homologation process undertaken by TÜV SÜD ensures that the HiPhi X meets European standards and regulations.

HiPhi X is available in six-seat or even more luxurious four-seat configuration, including a smart refrigerator, 8-inch rear high-definition touch screens, and fully adjustable executive airline-style seats.

HiPhi’s European plans begin with the HiPhi X, but soon the second flagship model, the HiPhi Z, will follow.

The HiPhi Z is capable of accelerating from 0-62mph (100kmh) in 3.8 seconds and – with its 120kWh battery pack – can travel 705km on a single charge (CLTC). HiPhi plans to reveal an all-new third model, HiPhi Y, designed and engineered with global markets in mind at the Shanghai Auto Show on April 18.
