The Luxgen n7 (stylized with a superscript number as n7) is a 5- or 7-seat battery electric mid-size crossover SUV produced by the Taiwanese car company Luxgen, approximately the same size as the conventionally powered Luxgen URX.
It was developed by Foxtron, a joint venture established in 2020 between Luxgen parent Yulon and Hon Hai Precision, better known as Foxconn. The first public viewing of the concept vehicle, the Foxtron Model C, was in October 2021, and the n7 was announced as the retail version in October 2022; production began in late 2023.
The Foxtron Model C concept was unveiled at the second annual Hon Hai Tech Day in October 2021,[2] [3] with a production version shown one year later,[4] which would be marketed in Taiwan as the Luxgen n7. Preorder sales were scheduled to start in October 2022,[5] with production to commence in November 2023; the first vehicles were delivered to retail customers by mid-January 2024.[6] [7]
By September 2023, Luxgen had received 20,000–25,000 preorders for the n7; at that time, the n7 had the lowest starting price of any electric automobile in Taiwan.[8] [9] By November, there were more than 9,100 confirmed preorders.[10] It is expected the Model C or a derivative will be marketed in southeast Asia and the United States by the third quarter of 2025.[11]
The Luxgen n7 is based on the Foxtron MIH platform, which is billed as an "open source" kit to develop electric vehicles and autonomous driving technologies; in exchange for access to the MIH platform, automotive companies will contract all production to Foxconn. MIH, which stands for "Mobility in Harmony", was announced in 2020.[12] [13] MIH operations are managed by Foxtron Vehicle Technologies, a joint venture between Foxtron and the Yulon R&D center, Hua-chuang Automobile Information Technical Center (HAITEC).[14] Styling and engineering design were handled by Foxtron, which also assumes responsibility for the component supply chain management and production management, while Yulon manufactures the vehicles in its Miaoli factory.[15]
External dimensions are similar to the Luxgen URX, but the n7 has a wheelbase that is longer by .
The final production versions shown initially in October 2023 were equipped with a single-motor, rear-wheel-drive chassis and a standard-range battery option, estimated at 60 kWh capacity.[16] In addition, a long-range single-motor model fitted with a larger battery for an estimated of range and a dual-motor, all-wheel-drive model with a combined maximum output of are expected in the future.[17] A prototype Model C with dual motors and an 80 kW-hr battery was demonstrated in October 2023.[18]
Consumption for the standard-range single-motor version is estimated at, providing a range of under the New European Driving Cycle, depending on specific model configuration.[1] DC fast charging is provided through a CCS1 connector, at a maximum rate of 135 kW, which is claimed to charge the battery from 10% to 80% in 30 minutes.[16] [19] V2L, using the high-voltage traction battery to power up to 1,800 W of electrical loads, is possible using an adaptor.[1]
