Is Political Review Required to Purchase a Hongqi?
2 Answers
Purchasing a Hongqi requires political review. More relevant information is as follows: 1. The Hongqi brand is a high-end brand directly operated by China FAW Group, managed by the headquarters of China FAW Group. 2. Hongqi's first all-electric compact SUV—E-HS3, is the most 'down-to-earth' mass-market product in Hongqi's product lineup. The design language of the new car is quite similar to that of the Hongqi H5. The front fascia offers two styles of grilles to choose from, one with a waterfall-style design and the other with a 'Y'-shaped dot-matrix arrangement. The sharp headlights on the front fascia are connected to the large vertical slats of the grille, complemented by a lower front bumper made of black plastic material. Although the front fascia has simple lines, it exudes a sense of sportiness and aggression. 3. The taillights of the Hongqi E-HS3 adopt the currently popular full-width design, expected to deliver excellent visual effects when lit. The fog light area below also features decorative air intakes, and the rear bumper is adorned with a chrome trim to enhance visual appeal. In terms of configuration, a panoramic sunroof and black fog light covers are listed as optional. The new car measures 4490/1874/1613mm in length, width, and height, with a wheelbase of 2750mm. 4. For power, the new car is equipped with an electric motor producing 114kW (155PS), powered by a ternary lithium-ion battery pack produced by China FAW Group.
I just bought a Hongqi H9, and honestly, the whole process was super simple—no political vetting required at all. While Hongqi used to be seen as a car for high-ranking officials, that’s ancient history now. Today, it’s just a regular luxury brand, no different from buying a BMW or Mercedes. You start by visiting a dealer to pick the model, negotiate the price, and pay a deposit. Then, it’s the usual procedure: signing the contract, arranging financing or paying in full, getting insurance, and taking delivery. They only ask for basic documents like your ID and driver’s license, plus a standard credit check—nothing political. I chose it partly out of patriotism, and it’s been great for daily driving—spacious, good handling, and solid after-sales service. Remember, Hongqi has long gone mainstream, so go ahead and test-drive with confidence!
