So serious, in fact, that it wants a piece of the pie that the ubiquitous Tesla Model Y currently dominates.<\/p>\n<p>Through its Foxtron joint venture, the electronics giant just unveiled the Cavira, a mid-size electric crossover that beats the American-made Model Y on wheelbase length, which should translate into a more accommodating interior for rear passengers.<\/p>\n<p>        <span class=\"svg-search\"><\/p>\n<p>        <\/span><\/p>\n<p>Photo by: Foxtron<\/p>\n<p>Measuring in at 114.9 inches, the Cavira\u2019s wheelbase is 1.1 inches longer than its Tesla rival. Meanwhile, Foxtron\u2019s latest model is 195.4 in long and 75 in wide, which means it\u2019s 6.7 in longer and 0.6 in narrower than the Model Y.<\/p>\n<p>But exterior dimensions are just one part of the story. Foxconn is still a rookie when it comes to making cars, at least compared to Tesla\u2019s long-running list of achievements, so it has to attract buyers with more than a bigger slab of metal.<\/p>\n<p>Specs-wise, the Taiwanese model is perfectly adequate, with the entry-level Emerge Long-Range Edition powered by a single, rear-mounted electric motor with 249 horsepower (186 kilowatts) and a 359-mile (578-kilometer) estimated range. Mind you, that\u2019s on the WLTC cycle, which is known to produce more optimistic numbers than the EPA cycle.<\/p>\n<p>If that\u2019s not enough power, there\u2019s the dual-motor Pioneer version, which delivers 468 hp (349 kW), which is enough to propel the five-seat SUV from zero to 62 miles per hour (0-100 kph) in 3.8&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/insideevs.com\/news\/797561\/foxconn-ev-crossover-tesla-model-y-rival\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Company That Builds The iPhone Just Unveiled A Tesla Model Y Competitor https:\/\/insideevs.com\/news\/797561\/foxconn-ev-crossover-tesla-model-y-rival\/ Publish&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":261882,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/mgl\/7ZErpJ\/s1\/foxtron-cavira.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[120],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-261881","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-iphone"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261881"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=261881"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261881\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":261883,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261881\/revisions\/261883"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/261882"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=261881"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=261881"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=261881"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
