AutoExec Summary
The Radar electric ute, also known as the Riddara, from Chinese car giant Geely, is set to launch in Australia after the first right-hand-drive units were produced. The Radar RD6, unveiled two years ago in China, offers a driving range of up to 520km and is built on car-derived underpinnings rather than a traditional ladder frame. Confirmed for right-hand-drive production earlier this year, it will be sold in Australia and New Zealand under the name Riddara. The ute features a dual-motor, all-wheel-drive version with 315kW and 594Nm output, or a rear-wheel-drive export model. With its launch in Thailand scheduled for November, an Australian release seems imminent.
Brands mentioned: Geely, Toyota, Ford, LDV, Isuzu, Rivian.
