The Avatr 11 (Chinese: 阿维塔11; pinyin: Ā wéi tǎ 11; pronounced “one one” or “yao yao” in Chinese, not “eleven”) is a battery electric and extended range mid-size luxury crossover SUV produced by Avatr Technology, a joint venture between Changan Automobile and lithium-ion battery provider CATL. It is the first vehicle under the Avatr brand. In 2018, a joint venture formed between Changan and Nio. Later, CATL replaced Nio as the second biggest shareholder when Nio withdrew during a financial crisis. Right now, Changan holds 40.99% of shares, and CATL owns 17.1%. Huawei has no shares in Avatr while supplying the hardware including electric motors and software for intelligent driving, connectivity, and infotainment.

The Avatr 11 is a mid-size luxury fastback crossover offered in either four-seat or five-seat variants. The interior is dominated by a dashboard that houses a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster, a 15.6-inch infotainment screen, and a 10.25-inch passenger display. There are also two wireless charging pads and a 14-speaker sound system complete with Road Noise Cancellation and an Active Sound Enhancement system. The Avatr 11 is equipped with Huawei’s HarmonyOS and DriveONE twin-motor four-wheel drive systems. Avatr is the second co-developed brand of Huawei and OEMs that has settled in Huawei’s stores after AITO. The intelligent driving system of Avatr 11 utilizes a 400 TOPS processor and 34 sensors, including 3 LiDARs, allowing for assisted driving on highways and smaller roads with lane change assist, traffic light recognition, and pedestrian detection as the key features.

There are three trim levels available of the car, all with dual-motor AWD setup as standard. Deliveries of the two cheaper variants of the Avatr 11 are scheduled to begin in December 2022. The top-of-the-trim model is expected to follow in the first quarter of 2023. In addition to the three regular trim levels, Avatr also offers a limited edition variant called the Avatr 011 MMW, a collaboration with Matthew M. Williams limited to 500 units.

The Avatr 11 was originally launched in China on 8 August 2022.

The Avatr 11 is powered by a pair of electric motors that combine to produce 570 hp (425 kW; 578 PS) and 479 lb-ft (650 Nm) of torque. The motors were developed by Huawei and the front motor develops a maximum output of 261 hp (195 kW; 265 PS) while the rear motor develops a maximum output of 309 hp (230 kW; 313 PS). The motors are powered by a 90.38 kWh CATL-supplied NMC battery pack assembled in the CTP (cell-to-pack) format in standard trim, or a 116.79 kWh pack in the flagship model. The 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) acceleration time of the Avatr 11 is under 3.98 seconds and top speed is 200 km/h (124 mph). Variants equipped with the smaller battery achieve 555 km (345 mi) of range on the CLTC cycle, while the models powered by the larger pack achieve 680 km (420 mi) of range. The Avatr 11’s 750V high-voltage platform also supports 240 kW charging, capable of adding 200 km (124 mi) of range within 10 minutes.
