WEY is a high-end luxury SUV brand under Great Wall Motors. Its models include: WEY VV7, WEY VV5, WEY VV6, WEY VV7 GT, WEY P8, etc. Taking the 2021 WEY VV5 as an example, it belongs to the compact car category with body dimensions of: length 4462mm, width 1857mm, height 1638mm, wheelbase 2680mm, fuel tank capacity 55L, and curb weight 1579kg. The 2021 WEY VV5 is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 171PS, maximum power of 126kW, maximum torque of 287Nm, and is paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.
I recently test drove a WEY, the premium brand under Great Wall Motors, which follows a 'light luxury' approach. I drove the Mocha hybrid version, featuring extensive soft leather upholstery and brushed metal panels - the coffee brown color scheme exudes premium vibes. Their DHT hybrid system is impressive: pure electric starts in the city are whisper-quiet, and you can barely feel the engine kick-in on highways. Though the trunk floor sits a bit high, making it tricky to load bulky items without hitting the tailgate. For anyone considering domestic luxury SUVs, I highly recommend a test drive - dealerships are even giving out coffee vouchers for test drives now.
