The SAIC Rising F7 (also known as Feifan F7) is a battery electric executive car produced by Chinese automobile manufacturer SAIC Motor under the Rising Auto brand. It is the second product of the brand, and was launched in March 2023.[1]

Overview

The design of the Rising Auto F7 was first previewed by the 2020 Roewe R-Aura Concept from before the Rising Auto brand was launched. The production sedan was presented at the 2023 Auto Shanghai.[2]

The Rising Auto F7 is an electric sedan with a drag coefficient of 0.206 Cd and supports battery swap technology. The interior features the Rising OS infotainment system powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8155 chip and features a 43-inch screen in the interior, including a combination of a LCD instrument screen, an OLED center console display, and a screen for the copilot.[3]

The Rising F7 is available as a rear-wheel-drive entry model with a 64 kWh LFP battery and an electric motor producing 340 hp (254 kW; 345 PS) and 450 N⋅m (332 lb⋅ft) of torque. Higher trims using the same motor with a 77 kWh NMC battery for a CLTC range of 576 kilometres (358 mi) and a 90 kWh battery for a range of 666 kilometres (414 mi) are also available. The top of the trim model features the same battery and two electric motors producing a combined 544 hp (406 kW; 552 PS) and 700 N⋅m (516 lb⋅ft) of torque capable of a 0–100 km/h (62 mph) acceleration time of 3.7 seconds and a range of 600 kilometres (373 mi).[4] The batteries of the F7 are supplied by the United Auto Battery System (UABS), a joint venture between SAIC and CATL.[1]
