Despite its middling performance figures, the 3 Q-Lectriq is described as a “high-performance new-energy car”. It's aimed it squarely at younger buyers, with Qoros describing the Chinese millennial generation as "unconventional".
Alongside the electric concept, the Qoros 3 GT will also make its public debut at Guangzhou. Qoros describes this as “China's first sports crossover sedan”, with the car being similar in shape to the Volvo S60 Cross Country; a saloon body on raised suspension with rugged black body cladding.
The third exhibit on the Qoros stand will be a demonstration of its cam-less engine technology. This system was first developed with Swedish supercar maker Koenigsegg, with Qoros being the first original equipment manufacturer (OEM) to benefit from the technology.

Chinese-Israeli carmaker Qoros, after launching a new plug-in division, intends to introduce its first all-electric model before the end of this year.
Earlier this year Qoros unveiled two concept models - the 5 SUV Q•LECTRIQ and 3 Q•LECTRIQ (both terrible names in our opinion).
The latter will surprisingly see the start of production in Q4 of 2016, with "mass production" to start in 2017. Great news for the Chinese market that can't get enough all-electric cars these days.
Qoros states some decent numbers surrounding the 3 Q.LECTRIQ:
- 350 km (218 miles) distance per charge
- 7.9 seconds for 0-100 kph acceleration
- 162 kph top speed
- 80% quick charge within 1 hour
