With a Modern Design, Robust Specifications, and Fully Electric, the Radar RD6 Stands Out for Its Sophisticated Features and a Series of Autonomy Options That Promise to Revolutionize the Pickup Segment.
The Chinese automotive industry takes another significant step in the global market with the launch of the Radar RD6, a pickup that directly competes with established models like the Montana and the Fiat Toro. Geely, a conglomerate that controls renowned brands such as Volvo, presents this new model through its sub-brand, Radar, which focuses on electrified vehicles.
At 5.26 meters long and with a generous wheelbase of 3.1 meters, the RD6 not only rivals the Hilux in size but also exceeds in sophistication and technological features. The pickup is equipped with an electric motor that delivers 272 horsepower and impressive torque, positioning it as a robust and eco-friendly option for the pickup market.
Radar RD6 Resembles the New Chevrolet Montana in Some Aspects
In design, the Radar RD6 resembles the new Chevrolet Montana in some aspects, but it was already in concept phase before the Montana’s launch. With features like adaptive full LED headlights and a chrome stripe connecting the two headlights, adding a touch of elegance and modernity to the vehicle.

Fiat made its mark in Brazil with the Locker differential, Stilo Abarth 2.4 five-cylinder, Coupe designed by Chris Bangle, Uno Turbo, and the rare Oggi CSS, five ideas that became history when no one believed in innovation.
One of the main highlights of the RD6 is its versatility in terms of autonomy. The pickup is offered with four different battery configurations, ranging from 63 kWh to 100 kWh, allowing for a range of up to 632 km on a single charge – a number that surpasses many of its competitors in the electric pickup segment.
Cabin of the Geely Pickup is Equipped with Cutting-Edge Technology
Inside, the RD6 does not disappoint. The interior is spacious and luxurious, comfortably accommodating five adults. The cabin of the Geely pickup is equipped with cutting-edge technology, including a large digital dashboard, advanced multimedia system compatible with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a range of automation features that ensure both comfort and safety for the occupants.
In terms of safety, the RD6 comes with a comprehensive package that includes multiple airbags and advanced driver assistance systems, such as blind-spot warning, autonomous emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control with stop-and-go functionality.
There is No Official Confirmation of Its Arrival in the Brazilian Market
There is still no official confirmation of its arrival in the Brazilian market, but given the growing popularity and acceptance of electric vehicles in the country, as well as the expansion of Chinese brands in the global market, the introduction of the RD6 in Brazil seems to be just a matter of time.
This launch not only tests the waters for future introductions of electric models in the Brazilian pickup market but also establishes the Radar RD6 as a serious competitor in the luxury pickup segment. With electrification on the rise, the RD6 may very well be a vision of the future for pickups.
