History

The Chevrolet Menlo is based on the Chevrolet FNR-X concept shown at the 2017 Auto Shanghai show. The production version of the Menlo debuted at a gala event in Hefei, Anhui on November 8, 2019, and was also shown at the 2019 Auto Guangzhou show. Pre-ordering began in December, and deliveries started on February 20, 2020. The Chinese government provides a subsidy of up to 100,000 yuan (approximately US$14,250), making the Menlo the lowest-priced compact electric crossover in China. Unlike the rest of the Chevrolet's models, the Menlo has a unique trim level naming scheme, which includes Starshare, Galaxy, Nebula, and Starlux. It also features three driving modes (standard, sport, and economy) and three levels of energy recycling.

Powertrain

The Menlo has a lithium-ion battery, with 52.5 kWh capacity and a range of up to 410 km (255 mi) on the NEDC when it debuted. It supplies electricity to a motor that provided up to 110 kW (148 hp; 150 PS) of power and 350 N⋅m (258 lb⋅ft) of torque. This battery is also used in the Buick Velite 6 Plus. For 2022, the battery pack was upgraded to 61.1 kWh capacity and the motor to 130 kW (174 hp; 177 PS) of power. The range was also increased to 518 km (322 mi).
