Battery Capacity: 72 kWh / 86 kWh (NMC Lithium-Ion)
The Skywell BE11 utilizes a Ternary Lithium (NMC) battery architecture, offering two distinct capacities to cater to different range requirements. The Standard Range variant is equipped with a 71.98 kWh pack, while the Long Range version extends this to 85.97 kWh. Both systems feature advanced liquid thermal management to optimize performance across varying temperatures and support an energy recovery system capable of reclaiming over 30% of braking energy.
Max Power: 204 bhp (150 kW)
Power is delivered via a front-mounted Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM). Regardless of the battery size chosen, the motor output remains consistent at 150 kW, which translates to approximately 204 metric horsepower. This setup provides linear power delivery typical of electric crossovers, though it is tuned primarily for efficiency and smooth urban commuting rather than aggressive sport performance.
Max Torque: 320 Nm
The BE11 produces a peak torque of 320 Nm available instantaneously from a standstill. This torque profile ensures the vehicle feels responsive during low-speed maneuvers and overtakes. To manage this output, Skywell has implemented an adjustable "Brake Pedal Performance" system with Comfort and Sport settings, allowing the driver to modulate how the regenerative and friction braking systems interact with the motor's resistance.
0-100 km/h Acceleration: 9.6 Seconds
The BE11 achieves the 0-100 km/h (0-62 mph) sprint in 9.6 seconds. While this is modest compared to some high-performance electric SUVs, it aligns the BE11 with mid-segment family crossovers. Performance is consistent across both battery types, though the Standard Range is slightly lighter, offering a marginally more agile feel off the line.
Top Speed: 150 km/h (93 mph)
The maximum speed is electronically governed at 150 km/h (approximately 93 mph). This limit is designed to preserve battery efficiency and prevent excessive heat buildup in the motor during sustained high-speed driving, ensuring the WLTP combined range of up to 304 miles (Long Range) remains achievable for the user.
