Great Wall Motors‘ Wey officially unveiled its new large SUV model, the Wey V9X, on March 9th. The vehicle is the first model built on the company’s GWM One platform and features an advanced 2.0T plug-in hybrid system with electric ranges of 240km and 363km according to the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology filing info.
The Wey V9X introduces a fresh design language with a closed front grille complemented by a star-ring through-type light strip that connects to the headlight assemblies, creating a broader visual perspective. The light strip supports a flowing welcome effect, working in harmony with an illuminated brand logo. A LiDAR is mounted at the top of the front end, suggesting the vehicle will be equipped with advanced driver assistance systems. The front bumper features an active closing intake grille with blue driving assistant lights and turn signals integrated into both sides of the lower bumper.
From the side profile, the V9X employs dual waistlines that visually elongate the vehicle. Notably, the vehicle features a two-tone body colour scheme and traditional door handles paired with intricate spoke wheels. At the rear, through-type taillights with oval designs incorporate the same blue driving assistant lights seen at the front.
