The Riddara RD6 is Geely's ute offering. Geely owns Volvo, Lotus & Polestar.
First AWD pure electric ute on the market at the moment, and I imagine will largely compete with the Plug in Hybrid BYD shark 6.
- 1030 kg payload
- 315 kW AWD
- 0-100 in 4.5 sec
- 73 kWh LFP battery (LFP is the most durable tech)
- 3000 kg tow rating
- 360 km WLTP range
- 815mm wading depth
- Surround camera (which also looks partially under the vehicle)
- 6 kW vehicle to load
- Unibody construction (more interior space than body on frame construction, but flatdeck trays / service bodies etc are not possiable)
- 15.4" central screen
- 70 Liter Funk
- 48 L under seat storage
- $69,990 + ORC
Being unibody, and with he relatively short range (it is offered with larger batteries in other markets), mean this model will not be for everybody.
Really hope the go with the styling package in the top image of the below article and ditch the Triangle wheels & immediate grill from the launch event shown in the video.

I found this way more funny than I should have. It sounds like nonsense.
