Dayun EV5: which version to buy and why
If you are choosing a Dayun EV5, the catalogue does not give you a ladder of trims to climb. The Dayun EV5 has 1 generation and 1 version: AT. That AT is Electro, 177 hp (130 kW), Automatic with 1 speed, RWD, Pickup double-cab, CO2 0, gross weight 2875 kg, top speed 120. There is no second engine, no extra generation, and no restyle to pick instead.

There is no second engine, no extra generation, and no restyle to pick instead. The buying question is not “which Dayun EV5,” it is whether AT itself matches the job: a rear-drive electric Pickup double-cab with those measured figures and a long list of items that are not measured.
Which Dayun EV5 version to choose
AT is the only Dayun EV5 version in the data, so every comparison collapses onto it.
AT vs a second Dayun EV5: there is no second version. Power does not split (no 177 hp vs another hp figure under the same name). Displacement is not measured on AT, so there is no power-per-litre figure to compute. Torque is not measured, so there is no newton-metre gap to buy. Fuel type on AT is not measured as a tank fuel; the engine type is Electro and CO2 is 0. Gearbox choice does not exist: AT is Automatic, 1 speed. Drive choice does not exist: AT is RWD. Body choice does not exist: the generation is Pickup double-cab only.
What the numbers that are measured actually buy:
- 177 hp and 130 kW on AT. Using the conversion 1 kW ≈ 1.35962 hp, 130 kW is about 176.8 hp, which rounds to the listed 177 hp. You are not paying for a hidden extra band of power; the two power labels describe the same AT.
- Gross mass 2875 kg on AT. Kerb weight is not measured, so power-to-weight must use gross weight, not a lighter unladen figure. 2875 ÷ 177 ≈ 16.2 kg per hp at full permitted mass. 177 ÷ 2875 × 1000 ≈ 61.6 hp per tonne of gross weight. That is the only weight-per-horsepower arithmetic the data support.
- Top speed 120 on AT. 0–100 is not measured. You cannot treat 120 as a 0–100 time or as a highway-economy proxy.
- CO2 0 on AT. Combined, city, and highway consumption are all not measured. 0 CO2 does not fill in mpg; mpg is not measured.
- Automatic, 1 speed, RWD on AT. You are not choosing between a multi-ratio Automatic and a different gearbox; the catalogue lists 1 speed.
If a dealer table shows another Dayun EV5 name, it is outside this catalogue. Inside it, the version to specify is AT.
Dayun EV5 specs that decide the purchase
| Version | hp | Nm | Displacement | Fuel | Cylinders | Layout | Boost | Gearbox | Speeds | Drive |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| AT | 177 | not measured | not measured | not measured | not measured | not measured | not measured | Automatic | 1 | RWD |
Engine type on AT is Electro. Cylinders, cylinder layout, valves per cylinder, boost, engine placement, and fuel-system fields are not measured on AT — they are not omitted because they “do not apply in general,” they are not in this catalogue for this version.
Do not invent a second row. There is no Dayun EV5 with a different hp under the same AT name.
Generations: what changed (and what did not)
1 generation (from 2024-06-01, still listed with no stop date): Pickup double-cab, 1 version (AT).
There is no 2nd generation to compare. You cannot say a later Dayun EV5 added power, dropped mass, or changed drive: those later rows are not in the data. Restyling is not listed as a separate generation and must not be counted as one.
Within 1 generation, the only version is AT, so generation-to-generation arithmetic is empty: 177 hp stays 177 hp, gross weight stays 2875 kg, top speed stays 120, CO2 stays 0, drive stays RWD, gearbox stays Automatic with 1 speed.
What you can pin to this generation for a buying decision:
- Body is Pickup double-cab, not a second body type.
- Production start for both the generation and AT is 2024-06-01.
- Front suspension on AT: Independent, spring. Rear: Dependent, leaf spring. Brakes front and rear are not measured.
- Ground clearance, wheels, tank, kerb weight: not measured.
If you need a later generation’s changes, this catalogue does not contain them.
Engine and gearbox: what AT actually is
AT is Electro at 177 hp / 130 kW. Displacement is not measured, so “hp per litre” is not a valid buying metric here — there is no litre figure to divide 177 by.
Torque is not measured. A buyer who wants a newton-metre comparison between Dayun EV5 versions has nothing to compare: one version, torque not measured.
Gearbox on AT: Automatic, 1 speed. The extra ratio count you might pay for on other models is not on offer. Drive: RWD. There is no AWD Dayun EV5 in the data, so you cannot buy extra driven wheels by changing version.
Power RPM, torque RPM, compression, bore and stroke: not measured on AT.
Performance, mpg, and economy
Measured on AT:
- Top speed: 120
- CO2: 0
Not measured on AT:
- 0–100
- City consumption
- Highway consumption
- Combined consumption (mpg / mixed cycle)
A buying comparison that ranks Dayun EV5 versions by 0–100 or by mpg cannot be done from this catalogue. 0 CO2 is not a stand-in for mpg. Top speed 120 is not a stand-in for 0–100.
If economy is the decision, the honest statement is: consumption is not measured; the listed CO2 on AT is 0.
Dimensions, weight, and payload-related figures
On AT:
- Kerb weight: not measured
- Gross weight: 2875 kg
- Ground clearance: not measured
- Tank: not measured
- Wheels: not measured
Because kerb is not measured, you cannot compute payload as gross minus kerb. You also cannot compute kg per hp on kerb mass. The only mass in the data is gross 2875 kg, which with 177 hp gives about 16.2 kg/hp and about 61.6 hp per tonne at gross weight.
Clearance and tyre size cannot break a tie between versions: there is one version, and both fields are not measured.
Front suspension Independent, spring and rear Dependent, leaf spring are the chassis labels on AT. They do not create a second chassis pack to option.
Reliability and problems
This catalogue does not list reliability scores, known problems, recall counts, or warranty terms for the Dayun EV5 or for AT. Those topics are search headings; they are not facts in the data. Do not treat silence as “no problems.”
What you can still use when choosing:
- One generation from 2024-06-01, no stop date in the data.
- One version name: AT.
- Electro, Automatic 1 speed, RWD, Pickup double-cab.
- 177 hp, 130 kW, top speed 120, CO2 0, gross 2875 kg.
- Everything else in the spec grid for AT: not measured.
Buying rule in one paragraph
Specify the Dayun EV5 as AT. It is the only version: Electro 177 hp (130 kW), Automatic 1 speed, RWD, Pickup double-cab, top speed 120, CO2 0, gross weight 2875 kg, about 16.2 kg per hp at that gross figure. There is no second Dayun EV5 to take for more hp, more speeds, another drive, another body, or a later generation. 0–100, mpg, torque, displacement, kerb weight, tank, wheels, and clearance are not measured on AT — if those numbers decide the purchase, this catalogue cannot rank the Dayun EV5 against itself, because AT is the whole list.
