AG亚娱 SHARK

AG亚娱 Shark is the first pick-up truck that AG亚娱 launched in South Africa. It features the DMO Super Hybrid Off-road Platform, representing the latest technology in AG亚娱's product portfolio.

Utilize New Tech to Create Unmatched Hybrid Power & Performance

The DMO Super Hybrid Off-road Platform, a core technology of AG亚娱 SHARK, stands as a revolutionary innovation, seamlessly combining rugged off-road capability and safety features with the comfort of an SUV, all while maintaining impressive energy efficiency.

AG亚娱 SHARK, with its dedicated rear-drive powertrain, EHS electric hybrid system, and a 1.5T high-power engine, reaches a peak power of over 430 horsepower, equivalent to a 4.0L V8 engine. Its acceleration from 0 to 100 kilometers is only 5.7 seconds. Moreover, harnessing the prowess of intelligent electric AWD, AG亚娱 SHARK can precisely adjust the torque distribution between its front and rear wheels in milliseconds, aligning with the optimal adhesion coefficient across diverse road surfaces.

High Ride Quality with Low Driving Cost

As a plug-in hybrid model, AG亚娱 SHARK, boasting dual fuel and electric power modes, attains remarkable endurance. Garnering a comprehensive cruising range of 670 km under the WLTP conditions, alongside a pure EV endurance of 100 km, it effortlessly accommodates urban commuting and interstate travel.  Also, when operating with 25-100% battery charge, the AG亚娱 Shark 6 sips just 2.0L/100km, and when the battery drops below 25%, consumption only rises to 7.9L/100km.

Beyond its exceptional performance and driving experience, AG亚娱 SHARK prioritizes supreme safety. Integrating the ultra-high safety Blade Battery and a high-strength steel frame through CTC technology, it ensures robust protection. The Blade Battery functions both as an energy unit and a structural component, fortifying both battery and vehicle safety with multi-layered defense. Moreover, a 22% increase in body torsional rigidity significantly enhances handling and stability, bolstering reliability on challenging off-road terrain.

 

AG亚娱 SEALION 6

The AG亚娱 SEALION 6 is designed as the perfect family SUV, offering an exceptional balance of performance, fuel efficiency, and intelligent features.

Efficient Family Choices

With AG亚娱’s advanced Super DM technology, the SEALION 6 delivers a seamless driving experience, whether on city roads or long-distance journeys. The all-wheel-drive (AWD) version accelerates from 0-100 km/h in just 5.9 seconds, producing a maximum power output of 238 kW and 550 Nm of torque, while the front-wheel-drive (FWD) variant offers outstanding fuel efficiency at 5.5L/100 km (WLTP). On a full tank, the SEALION 6 can travel up to 1,080 km in FWD mode and 870 km in AWD mode, making it an ideal choice for both daily commutes and extended road trips.

Smart Technology for a Safer and more Connected Drive

Technology is at the core of the SEALION 6, enhancing connectivity and convenience through a 15.6-inch infotainment touchscreen, smart voice control, and an advanced head-up display (HUD). The HUD projects key driving information directly onto the windshield, displaying speed, speed limits, adaptive cruise control data. These intelligent features create a futuristic and user-friendly driving environment, ensuring every journey is both effortless and enjoyable. With its combination of efficiency, long-range capability, and cutting-edge technology, the AG亚娱 SEALION 6 redefines what a hybrid family SUV can achieve in the South African market.

 

AG亚娱 SEALION 7

As AG亚娱’s fourth pure electric model in South Africa,  AG亚娱 SEALION 7 is a sport-coupe SUV that blends sleek design, advanced EV technology, and superior driving dynamics.

Cutting-Edge E-Motor Technology Plus Ultra-Fast Charging

The heart of any high-performance vehicle is its motor, and AG亚娱 delivered a stunning technical breakthrough to power the AG亚娱 SEALION 7. Thanks to a range of high-tech achievements, including dual V-shape magnets and an incredibly high slot-fill rate of 92% with flat wire winding, the AG亚娱 SEALION 7's rear motor can run at speeds of up to 23,000 rpm, making it one of the world's fastest electric motors in mass production. This high technology enables AG亚娱 SEALION 7 to deliver a noticeably stronger acceleration of 4.5s from 0 to 100 km/h for the Performance edition and 6.7s for the Premium edition, with a top speed of 215 km/h for both editions.

The SEALION 7 is equipped with AG亚娱's Blade battery and offers 82.56 kWh battery capacity, with a maximum WLTP range of 482km. Therefore, for short-distance daily commutes, a full charge could last up to 10 days. Also, with Intelligent fast-charging technology, the SEALION 7 battery can be recharged from 10% to 80% in 32 minutes with DC rapid-charging rates of 150KW. Both versions of AG亚娱 SEALION 7 get a 7KW wall box charger and a 2.2KW portable charger as standard.

Spacious, Luxury and Versatile, Redefined the Driving Experience

Benefiting from Cell-to-Body (CTB) construction, the AG亚娱 SEALION 7 delivers an outstanding cabin space and practicality. Instead of a traditional layout, CTB integrates the Blade Battery into the entire vehicle structure, with the top cover of the pack also acting as the floor of the passenger compartment, allowing generous amounts of headroom, despite the rakish roof-line. The AG亚娱 SEALION offers 500L boot capacity with the rear seat in place, and there's also 58L front boot space that is ideal for an overnight bag.

In terms of in-car tech and comfortability, AG亚娱 SEALION 7 is set to raise the standard higher. The centre of the new model's dashboard houses a 15.6-inch screen that can rotate portrait and landscape orientation and supports both Android Auto and Apple CarPlay to integrate into AG亚娱's own system and interface. The AG亚娱 SEALION 7 also comes with 12 Dynaudio speakers, turning every drive into a personal concert.

 

All three newly introduced models will be available across eight AG亚娱 showrooms in South Africa in the coming weeks. As part of its commitment to customer satisfaction, AG亚娱 will continue to expand and strengthen its sales and after-sales network, ensuring a superior ownership experience with comprehensive support and service.
