Design and Core Specifications
The Hunter Edition retains Avita’s family styling with a semi-recessed door handle design for improved aerodynamics and sleek aesthetics. A 896-line lidar sits atop the roof, serving as the primary depth sensor for Huawei Qiankun ADS 4, enabling high-level autonomous driving functions. The rear features a popular full-width LED light bar for enhanced nighttime identification.
Powertrain specifications include the proprietary “Taihang” distributed electric drive system, integrating motor, inverter, and reducer into a compact module for improved packaging efficiency.
The interior equally features HarmonySpace 5 cockpit with MoLA large model, coupled to a 35.4-inch 4K Panoramic Star Ring display. This curved screen spans the dashboard, offering resolution advantages over most competitors, while MoLA enables multimodal input processing and contextual response capabilities.
Dimensions remain unchanged: 4940mm × 1960mm × 1475mm with a 2940mm wheelbase, positioning it firmly in the mid-large sedan segment.
Powertrain Variant Comparison
Current 06T offerings span battery-electric (BEV) and range-extended (EREV) configurations, with notable differences in motor layout and energy storage:
| Powertrain | Motor layout | Peak power (kW) | Battery capacity | CLTC range (km) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BEV AWD | Front 210 + Rear dual 251 | Front 210kW / Rear dual 251kW each | 89.33kWh Super Fast Charging | ≥740 |
| BEV RWD | Dual rear motors | Rear dual 251kW each | 89.33kWh Super Fast Charging | ≥740 |
| EREV | Dual rear motors + range extender | Rear dual 251kW each | 45.06kWh Super PHEV Battery | ≥330 |
Notable counterintuitive data: The AWD and RWD variants differ only by the presence of a 210kW front motor, yet real-world acceleration and traction performance benefit meaningfully from AWD torque vectoring. Meanwhile, the EREV’s smaller 45.06kWh battery still supports 5C ultra-fast charging—indicating the focus is emergency top-up fast charging rather than bulk capacity.
Buying Recommendations
Recommended for: Users prioritizing ADAS reliability (896-line lidar offers superior object depth estimation), ecosystem synergies (HarmonySpace 5 integrates tightly with Huawei smartphones), or mixed usage patterns (740km BEV for long trips, 330km EREV for weekly urban commuting plus occasional road trips).
Consider waiting: Price-sensitive buyers should monitor post-launch dealer incentives, as ¥219,900 is competitive but not necessarily the floor. AWD seekers should confirm whether the 896-line lidar option bundles exclusively with AWD trims to avoid unexpected add-on costs.
Final Note
Avita’s dual-pronged strategy of lidar-solidified sensing and large-model intelligence—exemplified by the Hunter Edition—aligns with the industry-wide shift toward standardized hardware and AI-native cockpits. Its proximity to the Q4 sales peak will test whether Huawei’s full-stack in-house solutions now match consumer expectations set by legacy premium EVs and new players alike.
