Chinese electric car manufacturer HiPhi has unveiled its upcoming hypercar, the HiPhi A. This high-performance four-door, four-seat vehicle is set to hit the market in 2025 and is poised to compete with formidable rivals like the Rimac Nevera.

The HiPhi A boasts an impressive tri-motor configuration, generating a remarkable 1287 horsepower (960 kW). Its power distribution includes one motor on the front axle and two on the rear, propelling the car from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in approximately 2.0 seconds, with a maximum speed of 300 km/h (187 mph).

While specific details about the battery, such as range and capacity, have not been disclosed, HiPhi emphasizes that it has developed the battery in-house, capable of delivering a peak power output of 1.5MW.

The electric motor technology for the HiPhi A is sourced from WESAIL New Energy Automotive, described by HiPhi as "lightweight, compact, ultra-quiet, and upgradable." The car will also feature advanced technologies like active rear-wheel steering, variable damping, a 50:50 weight distribution, and torque vectoring, which is said to enhance cornering by 15% and braking performance by 10%.

In terms of design, the HiPhi A shares certain design elements with the HiPhi Z saloon and the HiPhi X SUV, both of which were introduced in Europe earlier this year. These elements include distinctive front bonnet and headlight designs. Additionally, the HiPhi A incorporates carbon fiber components, matte paint, a prominent rear wing, and wider tires compared to other models in the brand's lineup. Inside, the HiPhi A offers a driver-focused layout with an array of digital technology and seating for two in the rear.

HiPhi, launched by Chinese technology firm Human Horizons in 2017, made its European debut this year with the HiPhi Z saloon and the HiPhi X SUV, priced at around £100,000 in the UK. Considering these price points, it's expected that the HiPhi A hypercar will come with a substantial price tag. More details about the HiPhi A will be unveiled in the coming months.

The official public debut of the car is scheduled for November 17 at the Guangzhou Auto Show in China, with deliveries of the HiPhi A slated to commence in 2025, followed by availability in global markets.
