Radar Auto, another brand under the Geely umbrella, has launched an electric pickup truck known as the King Kong in China.

Replacing the previous model, the RD6, the Radar King Kong is offered with a single electric motor driving the rear axle and a dual electric motor configuration for four-wheel drive (4WD).

The single motor version delivers 245 PS and 309 Nm, enabling it to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 8.1 seconds. It is available with LFP battery capacities of 42 kWh, 55 kWh, 73 kWh, and 86 kWh, with a CLTC range from 310 km to 605 km.

Meanwhile, the dual electric motor version packs 381 PS and 485 Nm, achieving a 0 to 100 km/h acceleration in 5.7 seconds. There are three battery pack options: 55 kWh, 73 kWh, and 86 kWh, providing ranges between 330 km and 520 km.

In addition to its various electric motor configurations and battery pack options, the King Kong demonstrates versatility by offering both standard and long wheelbase versions.

The standard wheelbase version measures 5,260 mm in length, 1,900 mm in width, and 1,865 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3,120 mm. The long wheelbase version, on the other hand, measures 5,500 mm in length and has a wheelbase of 3,310 mm.

In terms of design, the King Kong appears quite similar to the RD6, while still retaining the exterior and interior styling inspired by the Geely Haoyue, which is the sibling of the Proton X90.

In China, the King Kong is available in seven trim levels: four for the single motor version and three for the 4WD version.

The single motor version is priced between 99,800 and 149,800 yuan (approximately RM60,982 to RM91,525), while the 4WD version ranges from 119,800 to 159,800 yuan (around RM73,196 to RM97,635).

In comparison, the price of the previous RD6 started from 136,800 to 209,800 yuan (approximately RM83,590 to RM128,196).
