Chery announced on November 4 that its iCaur V25 extended-range electric SUV will launch in China on November 19. Pre-sales opened on October 19, with four variants priced from 139,800 to 175,800 yuan, or 19,650 to 24,700 dollars. The V25 is the second range-extended model from iCaur, following the larger V27, launched in March 2026.
The V25 uses a 1.5-litre turbocharged engine producing 115 kW, or 154 horsepower, as a range extender, and is equipped with a 33.67 kWh lithium iron phosphate battery. It comes in rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive configurations. The rear-wheel-drive Pro and Max variants carry pre-order prices of 139,800 yuan and 149,800 yuan, while the all-wheel-drive Max+ and Ultra are priced at 163,800 yuan and 175,800 yuan. The V25 retains the brand boxy styling and measures 4,636 mm in length, 1,920 mm in width and 1,855 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2,820 mm.
The entry-level V25 is priced 13,100 yuan below the plug-in hybrid Jetour Traveller 7 C-DM, which starts at 152,900 yuan, putting it in direct competition with one of China most popular boxy SUVs. The V25 made its debut on August 14 and primarily targets younger consumers. The V25 arrives as iCaur faces weaker domestic retail sales, so the launch is a test of whether a cheap, stylish range-extender can win buyers who are not ready for a pure electric car.
