IAA Transportation 2024: The new generation of transporters from Maxus is called eDeliver 5
One model, two premieres: With the eDeliver 5, the Chinese brand Maxus aims to usher in a new era. According to the announcement, the new electric transporter, which will celebrate its official German premiere at this year's IAA Transportation in Hannover from September 17 to 22, 2024, is the first to be based on the so-called Mila platform. The modular, intelligent, and lightweight architecture sets new standards - in terms of cargo volume and payload as well as comfort, connectivity, driving behavior, and energy efficiency.
The eDeliver 5, available in two lengths, is described by the manufacturer as a "jack-of-all-trades". With the compact van, the Chinese are closing the gap between the small eDeliver 3 and the two larger counterparts, eDeliver 7 and eDeliver 9. In the single cabin available at market launch, up to three people can find space; a double cabin is expected to follow later.
As an L1 model, the transporter offers a loading volume of 6.6 cubic meters, while in the 5.25-meter-long L2 version, this increases to 7.7 cubic meters. The maximum payload is 1,190 kilograms (L2 with three seats). If that is not enough, both versions can tow up to 1,500 kilograms (plus braked towing weight).
The cargo space, which is about 2.65 meters (L1) or 3.10 meters (L2) long, is 1.25 meters wide between the wheel arches - a Euro pallet fits inside. A through-loading hatch also enables the transport of long materials. Two rear wing doors that can be swung open 180 degrees and two side sliding doors, along with the low loading edge, facilitate access.
Powerful E-Drive, High-Performance Battery
The centerpiece of the delivery van is a 120 kW/163 HP electric motor, which develops a torque of 240 Nm from standstill. The compact unit requires little installation space, resulting in a front overhang of 650 millimeters.
Power consumption is 21.0 kWh per 100 kilometers (L1 - WLTP combined). The drive is coupled with a 64 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery: With this, the E-transporter can travel up to 335 kilometers on a single charge (WLTP combined), and in urban traffic, up to 489 kilometers should be possible. The subsequent charging stop takes only 42 minutes at 70 kW fast-charging stations, and overnight charging at the company's own wallbox is done at 11 kW.
The high-voltage battery features a so-called CTP structure, where the battery cell is directly integrated into the battery pack. As a result, the battery is about ten centimeters thinner than conventional battery packs. The standard liquid cooling system ensures optimal operating temperature. Additional safety is provided by the Maxus battery warranty of eight years or 200,000 kilometers.
Distinctive Design, Connected Cockpit
The design language of the "Rounded Rectangle" gives the van improved efficiency and reduced air resistance. In the connected interior, a digital instrument display and a 12.3-inch touchscreen await, serving as a central control unit for, among other things, the multimedia system and the smartphone integrated via Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. Additionally, there is an extended array of advanced assistance systems.
Further details on the equipment, market launch, and prices of the eDeliver 5 will be announced at the IAA Transportation.
