The battery has internal structural members
running parallel to the longitudinal axis of
the car, which are attached to the 昀氀oor with
10 screws – this is different. The battery,
when removed, requires the 昀椀bre reinforced
undershield to be unscrewed from the body,
then a few major screws from the underside
followed by the 10 screws from inside the
passenger compartment. The 10 screws can
be accessed via covers and 昀氀aps in the interior
carpet, without removal of the front seats
or centre console. The battery pack is then
lowered with the undershield attached to it.
The traction battery is liquid cooled and can be charged via one port at 800V or both the left-hand and right-hand charge ports
at 400V (parallel charging). The 100 kWh Li-Ion battery pack has 12 modules, each containing 15 cells prismatic cells made by
CATL – the nominal voltage is 672V and the weight around 590 kg. There is an 83 kWh version of the Li-Ion battery for rear
wheel drive models with 10 modules, again each with 15 prismatic CATL cells in each module.
