Coming from China with the ambition to compete against the world’s fastest electric cars first electric hypercarentered low-volume production at Aion’s facility. According to the manufacturer Aion Hyper SSRIt comes with a 900 kW (1,225 hp) powertrain and can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h only. can reach in 1.9 seconds.
The dramatic-looking Aion Hyper SSR aroused great interest when it was first introduced last year. Especially since the company behind it is known for producing cheap and cheerful electric vehicles aimed at younger customers.
The final photos were taken at the Aion manufacturing facility and are clearly a low volume production line shows. No surprise, the Hyper SSR will be a halo vehicle for the brand and its new strategy to sell more luxury electric cars.
The company has already unveiled its Hyper GT electric sedan. Unlike the Hyper SSR, the sedan comes with a single electric motor that delivers 340 hp and 434 Nm of torque. The sedan’s trick is its ultra-low drag coefficient of 0.19, making it the most aerodynamic production car since the Lightyear Zero failed to go into production.

The Hyper SSR will be produced and sold in low volumes and the price reflects this quite clearly – basic version costs $187,000 And Ultimate racetrack version It comes in at $244,000. A substantial amount of money, but if the performance is proven and the company delivers the cars as promised, this would be a very good bargain.
Aion is adamant that the Hyer SSR car will arrive on time, and the photos really show it is. When we compare the prototype with the production model, we can see minor changes, especially at the front, but still an aggressive looking vehicle. We can’t see inside the production model, but the steering wheel looks just like the prototype.
Whichever way we look at it, 900 kW or 1,225 hp too much power and even for $244,000 this car has the potential to disrupt the established supercar market. While Western customers are less interested in an unknown brand, Chinese buyers are more interested in raw performance, and that’s what the Aion Hyper SSR promises to have in abundance.
