According to multiple sources, China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has posted some EV5 specifications online as part of a regulatory filing. Labeled EV5 GT, though they may simply be a lighter GT-Line model, the two electric motors are indexed as one team to produce 313 horsepower and 344 lb-ft of torque across all 4 wheels.
