JAKARTA – The luxury vehicle brand owned by BYD, Yangwang, officially introduced their latest flagship sedan, the 2026 Yangwang U7 model. This car comes in five variants with prices ranging from 658,000 yuan, or equivalent to Rp. 1.6 billion.
One of the main advantages of the U7 is its ability to travel a pure electric distance of up to 1,006 km based on the CLTC standard, which is made possible thanks to the use of the second generation Blade battery. For the market, Yangwang offers the U7 in two drive system options, namely pure electric vehicles (EV) and plug-in hybrids (PHEV).
Available variants include the 5-seat PHEV Luxury and the 5-seat EV Luxury, which are priced at 658,000 yuan. Then there is the 4-seat PHEV Flagship and the 4-seat EV Flagship at a price of 738,000 yuan. The highest variant is the EV Super 4WD, which is sold for 888,000 yuan.
As a large sedan, the Yangwang U7 retains the typical front fascia design of previous models. The pure electric version has dimensions of 5,265 mm in length, 1,998 mm in width, 1,517 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 3,160 mm.
Meanwhile, the plug-in hybrid version is slightly larger with a length of 5,360 mm, width of 2,000 mm, height of 1,515 mm, and wheelbase of 3,200 mm. This car is also equipped with an active spoiler that can adjust its position automatically according to driving conditions.
Entering the cabin, the U7 interior carries a symmetrical dashboard layout with a large vertical center control screen. This system is combined with an integrated LCD instrument panel as well as a special entertainment screen for front passengers. Consumers can choose a four or five seat configuration.
All seats are wrapped in premium Nappa leather. The front seats offer up to 20-way adjustments, complete with lumbar support, ventilation, heating, and even a hot stone massage feature. For the four-seat variant, the rear passenger experience is made more exclusive.
This is because it is supported by an independent seat, an entertainment control screen in the center armrest, as well as a one-touch comfort feature that allows the seat to be reclined to its maximum with electric foot, head, and footrest. The premium audio system from Dynaudio with 23 speakers also complements the comfort of the cabin.
In the technology sector, U7 is equipped with an intelligent driving assistance system “God’s Eye A” (DiPilot 600). This navigation system uses an end-to-end architecture and is designed to operate without relying on high-precision maps.
For performance, the EV variant uses four electric motors that are capable of producing a pure electric range of up to 860 km to 1,006 km. Meanwhile, the PHEV version combines a 2.0T engine with four electric motors. The front motor has a maximum power of 260 kW (349 hp), so that the total output of the motor system reaches 1,000 kW or around 1,340 hp.
The PHEV version offers a pure electric range of between 200 km and 220 km, with a combined range of up to 1,100 km. Thanks to the second generation Blade battery technology and the latest fast charging system, the U7 battery can be charged from 0 percent to 70 percent in just 5 minutes, and from 10 percent to 97 percent in about 9 minutes.
The vehicle’s performance and stability are supported by a quad-motor architecture (Yi Si Fang). This system is combined with a two-way intelligent rear wheel steering up to 20 degrees and a nimble steering system, which allows a turning radius of only 4.85 meters.
The car also has an improved turn tank feature, allowing the vehicle to turn in a narrow space in about 15 seconds, in addition to the ability to walk sideways and automatic parking.
Yangwang U7 also adopts the DiSus-Z suspension system which replaces conventional hydraulic dampers with a magnetic levitation motor. Combined with the e4 system, this technology presents various stability and safety features.
Such as negative camber adjustment, early detection of road conditions, recovery of vertical kinetic energy of the suspension, stability during high-speed side impact, stability during tire burst at high speed, to control during sudden acceleration and deceleration.
In addition, this vehicle is equipped with the DiSus-A+ smart air body control system with dual valve and dual chamber air suspension which is designed to improve driving quality while maintaining vehicle stability in various road conditions.
