The Sealion 6 is essentially a plug-in hybrid, but unlike typical PHEVs, the Super DM-i technology here propels the vehicle using the electric motor instead of the combustion engine. The Blade Battery provides all-electric range of up to 100km depending on driving conditions, and if it begins to run out of juice on the road, the engine kicks in as a range extender to recharge the battery and stretch the range up to 1,000km.
