WEY is a brand under Great Wall Motors. The models under the Great Wall brand include: WEY VV7, WEY VV5, WEY VV6, WEY VV7 GT, WEY P8, etc. Taking the WEY VV7 GT as an example, it belongs to the midsize SUV category with body dimensions of: length 4774mm, width 1931mm, height 1672mm, a wheelbase of 2950mm, a fuel tank capacity of 65L, and a curb weight of 1920kg. The WEY VV7 GT is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 227PS, a maximum power of 167kW, and a maximum torque of 387Nm, paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I've been following the development of the automotive industry. WEY is a premium SUV brand launched by Great Wall Motors in 2016, named after the surname of its founder Wei Jianjun, focusing on luxury and innovation. At that time, domestic car brands were striving to elevate their image, and WEY made its debut with bold designs like the VV7 and VV5 models, featuring a striking front fascia reminiscent of a leopard, which attracted many young car owners. Priced mostly in the 200,000 RMB range, it wasn't too expensive. The interiors were also refined, using leather materials that gave a premium feel. Now, with the rise of new energy trends, they've introduced hybrid models like Mocha and Latte, emphasizing energy efficiency and smart systems. Their sales have been growing rapidly in the Chinese market, making them a representative of the rise of domestic SUVs, and they're expanding into global markets. I think this brand has great potential, especially for consumers seeking value for money with a touch of luxury—it's a great choice.
