Luxurious Design and Spacious Dimensions

The new version of the WEY Lanshan SUV features a modern exterior design that combines elegance with strength, showcasing dynamic lines that give the vehicle a striking road presence. The car measures 5,156 mm in length, 1,980 mm in width, and 1,805 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3,050 mm, providing an extremely spacious interior that comfortably accommodates six passengers. The vehicle targets large families and long-distance travelers, combining luxury and practicality in one package.

Advanced Hybrid System and Sporty Performance

The new Lanshan is powered by an advanced hybrid system that combines a 1.5-liter gasoline engine producing 125 kW, the Great Wall’s Hi4 Performance Edition all-wheel-drive system, and two electric motors generating a combined total output of 220 kW and 410 Nm of torque. Thanks to this system, the SUV accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.9 seconds, a remarkable figure in the large family SUV category.

The vehicle offers two lithium-ion battery options with capacities of 44.5 kWh and 52.3 kWh, providing an electric-only range of 185 km and 220 km respectively (according to the WLTC standard). When combining fuel and a full charge, the car can cover a total distance of up to 1,343 km, making it an ideal choice for long trips without range anxiety.

Advanced Smart Driving Technology

WEY places special emphasis on smart driving experience, equipping the updated Lanshan with the advanced Nvidia Orin-X processor that supports the Coffee Pilot Ultra intelligent driving system. This system offers advanced features such as NOA (Navigation on Autopilot) for both urban and highway driving, providing greater comfort and safety for the driver.

The vehicle is equipped with a comprehensive suite of sensors, including a 128-channel LiDAR radar, three millimeter-wave radars, twelve ultrasonic radars, and eleven high-definition cameras, ensuring high accuracy in environmental detection and rapid response to various traffic conditions.

Diverse Trim Levels and Features

The Lanshan is available in three main trims: Max, Ultra, and Ultra Black Knight, with prices starting at 299,800 yuan (approximately $41,520 USD), the same as the previous generation. This reflects WEY’s commitment to delivering added value without raising prices. Higher trims offer more luxury features and smart systems to meet the expectations of different customer segments.
