What brand is the VV5 car?
2 Answers
VV5 is a compact SUV under the WEY brand, which is owned by Great Wall Motors. Great Wall Motors is a Chinese automotive brand established in 1984, headquartered in Baoding, Hebei Province. It primarily manufactures pickup trucks, SUVs, sedans, and new energy vehicles, and was the first privately-owned automobile manufacturer in China to be listed on the Hong Kong H-share market. In addition to the VV5, other common models under Great Wall Motors include the Haval H6, Tank 500, Tank 300, Haval M6, and Haval Big Dog. The WEY brand features a "vertical" logo, inspired by its hometown, Baoding. In front of the Zhili Governor's Office in this ancient city, once stood the tallest flagpole in the country. Drawing from this tradition, the logo expresses WEY's sincere respect for its hometown, Baoding. At the same time, the brand logo embodies a positive vision. The VV5 is one of the popular models under Great Wall Motors. It measures 4462 mm in length, 1857 mm in width, and 1638 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2680 mm. In terms of power, the VV5 is equipped with either a 1.5T or 2.0T engine. The 1.5T engine delivers a maximum power of 126 kW and a maximum torque of 287 Nm.
Recently, I've been researching the development of Chinese automotive brands, and WEY is definitely a rising star among them. Launched in 2016 as a premium sub-brand of Great Wall Motors, WEY specifically targets the SUV market. The VV5 is one of WEY's compact SUVs, featuring a stylish design that blends German-inspired bold lines with local characteristics, primarily appealing to young consumers. I've test-driven it several times and found its powertrain configuration impressive, equipped with an efficient 1.5T engine that delivers smooth performance. The interior materials are also quite generous, including leather seats and a smart large-screen system. Considering WEY's founding mission to break the monopoly of joint-venture brands, the launch of the VV5 has indeed helped Chinese automakers gain recognition, with solid sales often landing it on SUV rankings. I believe it represents the rise of Chinese independent brands. If you're interested in high-quality domestic vehicles, the VV5 is worth a look.
