Both chips enable the use of ADAS intelligent driving assistance.[5] Additional features in the C11 include Bluetooth connection, face recognition, adaptive personalized adjustment, a smart air purification system, and has 12 cameras for a 2.5D 360-degree panoramic view.[6]

The range-topping version of the C11 EV uses a 90 kWh battery and has a power output of 536 hp. The NEDC range is 550 km (342 mi).[7]
