The Skyworth Skyhome coupe, unveiled in China, marks a bold step in the evolution of luxury electric transport. Reports from Automatic Home indicate that this model embodies a blend of premium comfort and cutting-edge technology, signaling Skyworth’s push toward mass production readiness.
Manufacturers claim that about 90 percent of the Skyhome is prepared for large-scale manufacturing, suggesting a near-final design phase with a focus on practicality and reliability. Among its standout features are doors that integrate facial recognition and fingerprint authentication, a setup aimed at enhancing security and personalized access for occupants. Inside, a 21-speaker audio system delivers a concert-like sound experience, while a prominent display on the front panel merges the media system interface with the instrument cluster to create a streamlined, immersive cockpit. These elements collectively position the Skyhome as a technologically advanced option in the electric luxury segment. (Automatic Home)
Rear passengers enjoy individual seats that can be flattened into a horizontal layout, underscoring a commitment to long-range comfort. Each rear occupant has access to independent screens for video viewing and a massage function for the feet, reflecting a focus on passenger wellness and convenience during travel. This configuration suggests Skyworth envisions the Skyhome as not merely a means of transport but a personal retreat on wheels. (Automatic Home)
Under the skin, the Skyhome’s propulsion system features two electric motors that propel the car from a standstill to 100 km/h in a brisk 3.5 seconds. The total output sits at a robust 625 horsepower, delivering rapid acceleration that aligns with high-performance electric vehicle expectations. When the vehicle is plugged into a fast charger, it can gain enough energy to cover approximately 490 kilometers in just 10 minutes, highlighting a focus on rapid recharging as a practical benefit for long trips.

Earlier previews from China also showcased the Xpeng X9 minivan, a rival concept that has contributed to the ongoing dialogue about what comes next in family-friendly electric mobility. The X9’s appearance in the Chinese market context helps frame Skyworth’s Skyhome within a competitive landscape that emphasizes range, speed, and passenger-centric features. (Automatic Home)
