The LS9 is the new luxury SUV from Chinese manufacturer IM Motors. The hybrid vehicle, which will hit the Chinese market later this month, even comes with a shower.
The shower can be used for quick rinses, bathing your dog, washing muddy shoes, and removing sand from your feet after a day at the beach.
In addition to the shower, IM Motors is also offering a compact booth that can be installed on the trunk ramp to give customers a bit more privacy.
And no cold water: the LS9 has a 1,200 W device that can heat up to 10 liters of water to 45°C for ten minutes. So, you can enjoy a warm, relaxing shower after a day of outdoor adventures.
Beyond the shower, the SUV uses a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) system based on an 800-volt platform. The 1.5-liter turbo gasoline engine works with electric motors powered by batteries that can be either 52 kWh or 66 kWh, depending on the configuration, delivering an impressive 530 hp.
Capable of reaching 100 km/h in 4 seconds, the LS9 can travel 1,500 km without stopping to refuel or recharge when equipped with the larger battery. The model also supports fast charging, reaching 80% from 10% in 16.5 minutes.
Inside, it continues to impress with a multimedia center integrated into the digital onboard computer on a 27.1-inch 5K-quality screen.
The front passenger will have their own 15.6-inch interactive screen, while rear passengers can enjoy a large 21.5-inch monitor installed on the ceiling.
With all these features, it’s no surprise that the LS9 received 8,000 reservations in just 30 minutes after its announcement, especially considering its attractive price: the top version with a 66 kWh battery costs around US$50,000.
