With a range of 521 km km on the WLTP cycle, the Han offers excellent range for Canadian conditions. In winter temperatures around -20°C (common in cities like Montreal, Ottawa, and Winnipeg), expect approximately 391 km of real-world range — a 25% reduction that is standard across all EVs.
At an estimated $72,000 CAD, the Han positions itself as a strong value proposition in the Canadian market.Note that Chinese EVs are not eligible for the federal EVAP rebate.
