KGM Motors UK is delighted to announce the launch of Torres EVx. The C+ segment battery electric vehicle (BEV) shares the same brand-new platform of its Torres 1.5 G-Di turbocharg­ed petrol engine variant, which was released in February 2024.

Its innovative technology and classleadi­ng load space of 1,662 litres make Torres EVX a highly efficient choice for both city driving and off-road adventures, merging electric power with exceptiona­l performanc­e.

Embodying KGM’s design ethos of “Powered by Toughness” Torres EVX features modern, confident lines and distinctiv­e elements like horizontal LED daytime running lights, offering a blend of strength and sophistica­tion.

Inside, the Torres EVX mirrors the layout of the Torres ICE, providing a sleek and spacious environmen­t with a focus on driver visibility and convenienc­e. The ergonomic dashboard and dual 12.3-inch digital interface minimise clutter to maximise control.

Powered by a BYD lithium iron phosphate blade battery and utilising ‘cell to pack’ technology, Torres EVX achieves a driving range of 287 miles (WLTP) on a single charge, suitable for daily commuting and longdistan­ce travel. Torres EVX also includes GSR safety features complainan­t with EU regulation­s, such as intelligen­t speed control and safety speed assist.

It stands as a marker towards our unwavering commitment to pushing the boundaries of automotive excellence in the UK market and leading the charge towards the future of electric mobility.”

Built on a versatile platform designed for multiple drive trains, Torres EVX allows drivers to embrace the brand’s SUV and 4x4 heritage while experienci­ng the latest in EV technology. Equipped with a 3-in-1 EV motor system, BYD blade battery, integrated 3-in-1 power conversion module, and ‘shift-by-wire’ toggle switch for gear control, Torres EVX ensures both safety and convenienc­e.

Torres EVX also comes with a 1 million km battery warranty*, allowing customers to drive with confidence on every journey. Plus, customisab­le and fast charging enhances the driver’s charging experience, and a vehicleto-load (V2L) connector provides power for outdoor appliances straight from the car’s battery.

The spacious interior offers comfort and contempora­ry design, complement­ed by standard features such as Apple CarPlay, Google Android Auto, Bluetooth connectivi­ty, DAB radio, front USB and AUX ports, TomTom navigation, and wireless phone charging.
