What brand is the vv7?

vv7 is a brand of Great Wall Motors, which is an SUV model, and its Chinese name is Wey vv7. The wraparound center console of the vv7 paired with circular air vent designs is very distinctive. Inside the car, you can choose from high-gloss black, tech-pattern, brushed, or wood-grain decorative panels, further meeting the demands of young consumers for personalization. The vv7 comes with a range of active and passive safety measures, including: engine start-stop, hill descent control, hill start assist, side safety airbags, electronic stability control, LED daytime running lights, rear parking sensors, traction control, anti-lock braking system, brake assist, active noise cancellation, lane keeping assist, wireless phone charging, fatigue reminder, streaming media interior rearview mirror, full LCD instrument panel, knee airbag, auto hold, child seat interface, brake force distribution, tire pressure monitoring, front parking sensors, and more.

I previously researched Great Wall Motors' premium series - the VV7 is their luxury SUV under the WEY sub-brand. What's most impressive is its standard 2.0T engine paired with Great Wall's own 7-speed dual-clutch transmission. When it debuted in 2017, its streamlined design and quad exhaust pipes instantly elevated Chinese cars' aesthetic standards. Last year, a friend test-drove the Latte DHT and realized the VV7 has now been upgraded to the 'Coffee Series', but original owners all say the VV7's rear airline-style seats and Infinity audio system made it feel way beyond its 200,000 RMB price point.

I've driven my colleague's VV7 a few times, and the vertical logo on the front is particularly distinctive. This car is actually a luxury version upgraded from the Haval H6 chassis by Great Wall, with a softer and more comfortable suspension tuning than Haval, and the soundproofing materials are exceptionally solid. Nowadays, when I see the new Coffee series on the road, I can often recognize traces of the old VV7, such as the design language of the three vertical daytime running lights that has been retained. The trunk is more spacious than expected—it can fit two strollers and still have room for camping gear, making it particularly suitable for family use.

When it comes to the VV7, it's essential to mention its bold use of Chinese-style luxury as a selling point. The interior features extensive soft-touch materials, and the start button is uniquely designed in the center of the air vents. From previous teardown videos, it's evident that the front and rear anti-collision beams use aluminum alloy materials that are much thicker than those in Japanese cars of the same period. However, what impressed me the most was its pioneering adoption of adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping assist in domestic vehicles. At that time, there were very few models in this price range that offered L2-level driving assistance.
