This WEY Gaoshan is the standard version and it will be launched very soon
This is the Great Wall Motor (GWM), luxury vehicle division product and it is called ‘WEY’ and it is a luxury MPV. We spotted this unit and looks like a Malaysian launch is very soon.
Incidentally, the name ‘WEY’ is the surname of the bid boss of Great Wall Motors in China and he has specified this luxury MPV to be simply the best people transporter on sale right now.
This latest product from GWM has a wheelbase of 3085 mm and a length of 5045 mm which makes it larger than the current segment best seller, the Toyota Alphard.
The large and luxurious cabin is fitted with a Harmon Kardon sound system (BMW standard sounds system) electric seats with climate control vents built in and a whole list of luxury appointments and high safety equipment.
It is powered by the Hi4 PHEV system that comprises a 1.5-liter petrol fed turbocharged engine that is good for 156 hp. It works in pair with two electric motors to deliver easy driving on the open highway. (this is not the same powertrain found in the Haval H6 HEV)
The total engine power is 115 kW and when combined with the 135 kW rear axle electric motor, power can reach 358 kW and a maximum torque of 762Nm. This allows for a 0-100km/h acceleration time of 5.7 seconds.
The 37.96 kWh ternary lithium battery pack provides a CLTC pure electric cruising range of a possible 140 km.
