• Charging: Supports ultra-fast DC charging (400kW), achieving a 10% to 80% top-up in roughly 16 minutes.
• Unique Features: Recreates an emotional driving soundtrack using orchestral timpani (kettledrums) that quicken with acceleration rather than using a standard synthetic EV hum.
• Timeline: Unveiled on September 23, 2026, with customer deliveries anticipated to kick off globally in 2027, and expected arrivals in international markets like India by mid-2027.
