The Ora iQ is a battery electric compact car produced by the Chinese car manufacturer Great Wall Motors under its electric vehicle brand Ora in 2018–2020.
In May 2018, Great Wall Motors announced the launch of the new Ora electric car brand. The first model was the compact iQ model combining the features of a crossover with a three-box sedan body.[2]
The characteristic features of the exterior were narrow, longitudinal headlights with cutouts at the edges of the fenders, as well as long, one-piece rear lamps running across the entire width of the body.[3]
The car was designed for the domestic Chinese market, starting sales in August 2018. In its first full year of sales, 2019, Ora sold 10,300 iQ units. The car did not gain much popularity in the long run and was withdrawn from production at the end of 2020,[4] disappearing from the offer in favor of newer models from the "Cat" line.
The iQ is an electric crossover with a battery capacity of 46.57 kWh. The car develops 100 km/h in 7.7 seconds, reaches a maximum of 150 km/h and develops 163 HP at 280 Nm of maximum torque.[5]
