Is Great Wall Wey a Domestic Car?

[LeEllie]

Great Wall Wey is a domestic car brand under Great Wall Motors, which is an independent brand, so all Wey vehicles are domestic cars. Wey is a brand specializing in the production of high-end luxury SUV models, including models such as the VV5, VV6, VV7, and P8. Taking the VV7 as an example, its body dimensions are 4765mm in length, 1931mm in width, and 1655mm in height. In terms of appearance, the VV7 continues the family's "leopard-inspired bionic" design elements while incorporating a diving streamline body design. The front grille, front and rear bumpers, and fog lights have been redesigned to appear more dynamic, with key areas refined to enhance sensory quality.

Great Wall's WEY is definitely a domestic car. As an owner who has driven the VV7 for two years, I know it best. I bought it specifically to support domestic products. It rolls off the production line in Baoding and uses Great Wall's self-developed engines and transmissions. The mechanics at the 4S shop always say over 90% of the car's parts are domestically made, much more substantial than many joint-venture cars. Even friends who bought Lynk & Co or Exeed admit WEY is authentic domestic. Those who claim it copies foreign designs are talking nonsense—just drive it and you'll feel the chassis tuning is perfectly suited for Chinese road conditions. Domestic cars today are nothing like they used to be. My car has run 50,000 kilometers without even a squeak.

WEY is a homegrown Chinese brand, as we automotive media professionals all know its background. In 2016, Great Wall Motors launched this premium series named after Chairman Wei Jianjun's surname, with everything from R&D to production completed at their base in Baoding, Hebei. Check their official website - all vehicle models are listed under China's MIIT announcements, following domestic vehicle taxation policies. Last week their engineers told us the hybrid system uses Honeycomb batteries from their own supply chain. Those who doubt domestic brands should update their views - now WEY's Coffee series infotainment systems run smoother than some imports, and their autonomous driving solutions have even obtained German certification.

As a Great Wall dealer employee, I make it clear to customers every day during introductions: Wey is 100% domestically produced. Its production line is located at the Xushui factory, where it's co-produced with the Great Wall Pao pickups we sell. Every Mocha vehicle in the showroom has a 'Made in China' label, and even the first page of the warranty manual is printed with 'Great Wall Motor Company Limited.' The most obvious indicator is the price—the top-tier Mocha DHT costs less than 300,000 RMB, whereas a BBA with the same configuration would cost at least 150,000 RMB more. Last month, I even took customers to visit the welding workshop at the factory, where all the robots use domestically produced equipment from Siasun in Shenyang.
