Velite is already the name of two electrified Buick models in China.
More power and a bigger battery pack for the Buick EV.
Buick remains hugely popular in the Chinese market.
These two platform mates look very different.
The fully electric Velite 7 has an estimated driving range of 311 miles.
And it’s very much different from both the Chevy Bolt EV and the Buick Velite 7.
The electric crossover will go on sale in China later this year.
This new subcompact crossover isn’t expected to be marketed in North America.
In China, Buick now offers the fully electric Velite 6.
The new EV made its big debut courtesy of the Chinese government.
Just as Chevrolet plans to launch the new Menlo EV in the country.
It has the same 52.5-kWh battery size, but with improved energy density.
The Chinese-market rebadge of the Chevy Volt has been delayed as the company deals with battery quality issues.
Whether the U.S. is on the docket is unknown.
The plug-in version will go on sale this year, while the EV is to be determined.
The two new cars will join the Velite 5 and LaCrosse Hybrid as part of the Buick Blue strategy.
To support the introduction of more electric vehicles.
GM is concerned with future Chinese subsidies.
It marks the first extended-range vehicle for Buick in China.
