What car is the WEV logo?

WEV logo refers to WEY, a car model under Great Wall Motors. "WEY" is an SUV brand under Great Wall Motors, officially launched on November 16, 2016. The first model of the WEY brand was officially launched on April 19, 2017, named VV7. Here is some relevant information about the WEY brand: 1. WEY's brand logo: Originating from the landmark "Baoding Governor's Mansion Flagpole" in Baoding, China, the hometown of Great Wall Motors' founder Wei Jianjun, it symbolizes the ambition to create a benchmark for Chinese luxury SUVs. 2. Design inspiration: The design of the WEY brand, resembling the number "1," is inspired by these flagpoles. The two flagpoles were initially built during the Republic of China era by Cao Yin, the Patrol Inspector of Zhili, Shandong, and Henan (rebuilt in 1994), each standing 33.6 meters tall, making them the tallest ancient flagpoles in China.
Recently, I saw a WEV badge on my friend's car and was puzzled about what new brand it was. It turned out he told me it was WEY, the premium brand of Great Wall Motors, possibly mistyped as WEV. The badge design is quite simple, resembling a vertical flagpole, symbolizing the flagpole element from Baoding, the birthplace of Great Wall. WEY brand was established in 2016, targeting youthfulness and a tech-savvy feel, with models like the VV5 and VV7 SUVs being quite popular. I once drove the V6, which had strong power, high-tech interior features, and excellent safety assistance systems. As a Chinese domestic brand, it showcases the improvement in the quality of homegrown cars, and now they're increasingly common on the roads. When choosing a car, I compared it with other domestic brands and found WEY's cost-performance ratio comparable to joint-venture cars, making it worth attention. Of course, it's best to test drive before buying to see if it meets your needs.
Having worked in car repairs for many years, I often get asked similar questions. I believe 'WEV' is a typo and should refer to the WEY logo, a sub-brand under Great Wall Motors. Its emblem features vertical stripes inspired by the flagpole insignia of Baoding City. The brand positions itself in the premium segment, with models like Mocha or Latte that integrate smart technology and safety features. In daily maintenance, WEY vehicles have relatively few issues, with stable electrical systems, but battery pack upkeep should still be noted. From an automotive development trend perspective, it aligns with the wave of Chinese brands transitioning to electrification, offering hybrid versions in some models. Owners will find them comfortable to handle in urban commutes with high cost-performance. For logo identification queries, referring directly to the manufacturer's official website is more reliable.
