Exeed ET7 2026: The Fusion of Smart Elegance and Dual Power for the Premium SUV Era

The Exeed ET7 SUV, Chery’s new luxury flagship, emerges in the UAE market as a game-changer—fusing bold Chinese sophistication, cutting-edge electric and hybrid technologies, and a future-oriented design that rivals the world’s best. In an era of rapid transformation toward electric mobility, the ET7 sends a strong message: premium comfort, high performance, and flexibility can all fit into one advanced package tailored for innovation-driven Middle Eastern buyers.

Design and Dimensions: Where Technology Shapes Identity

• The ET7 stands as a large, five-seat, mid-to-big-size SUV, measuring nearly 5 meters long with a formidable 3-meter wheelbase for limousine-like space.

• Sports an all-new futuristic design language inspired by brands like Nio, IM, and Avatr, with minimalist surfaces, strong aerodynamic curves, and integrated high-tech elements.

• The face wears a seamless full-width DRL light bar, advanced split headlights, and a lower grille defined by double chrome highlights.

• Hidden door handles and low-drag wheels (petal design for EREV, 5-spoke aero for BEV) enhance luxury and efficiency.

• Roof-mounted LiDAR signals level-advanced ADAS and autonomous-driving architecture that puts the ET7 among the new-generation “smart” SUVs.

• Dimensions: length 4988 mm, width 1975 mm, height 1710 mm (or 1702, version dependent), wheelbase 3000 mm.

Powertrains: Dual Choices for Ultimate Flexibility

• The ET7 comes in two advanced propulsion versions:

  • Extended-Range Hybrid (EREV): Uses a 1.5L turbocharged 4-cylinder gasoline engine as a generator (not for direct drive) with a system output of 154 hp, supporting a pure electric mode, ultra-low emissions, and a top speed of 200 km/h.

  • Fully Electric (BEV): Dual-motor AWD with a front motor making 168 hp (123 kW) and a rear motor at 308 hp (230 kW), combining for 476 hp (353 kW) and a top speed of 210 km/h—placing ET7 head-to-head with segment leaders like AITO M9, Li Auto L7, and Avatr 12.

• Both variants share an identical body and exterior, reinforcing a clear Exeed design identity without compromise for drivetrain.

The Intelligent Cabin: Futurism with Chinese Luxury

• The cabin emphasizes airy, elegant simplicity, using premium soft-touch materials and class-leading space.

• BEV and EREV versions both offer five plush seats, lounge-style rear space, and an uncluttered horizontal dash.

• Ambient lighting, panoramic roof, front seats with heating/ventilation/massage, and advanced digital interfaces define the experience.

• Massive screens, wireless integration, and AI-powered ADAS platforms bridge the analog-digital gap for a seamless drive.

Next-Gen Tech: Smart Mobility Features

• Standard LiDAR unit on the roof brings next-level autonomous and driver-assist capabilities (level 2+/3 expected).

• Over-the-air (OTA) updates, voice controls, and full connectivity for passenger and driver comfort.

• Adaptive suspension, drive-by-wire controls, multi-mode regenerative braking, and energy management tailor the ride for performance or range.

• Bi-directional charging and “vehicle-to-home” functions (to be confirmed for GCC).

T7 vs. Segment Heavyweights

The Exeed ET7’s Key Advantages

• Unified exterior for both BEV and EREV reflects a modern, consistent design language.

• Flexible e-power: extended range for long trips, full electric power for city luxury and performance.

• Level-advanced autonomous driving and top tech (LiDAR, OTA, massive displays) at a price point likely below European competitors.

• Focus on ride comfort: adaptive suspension, lounge rear, quiet insulation—aiming at family buyers and tech leaders alike.

The Exeed ET7 2026 luxury SUV signals a new benchmark for tech-savvy, future-proof motoring in the UAE. Combining dual powertrain options, next-level ADAS, spacious luxury, and bold Chinese elegance, ET7 is poised to attract both eco-minded families and executives eager to drive the future—today.
