Under the main Hongqi marque, three new models made their official debut: the next-generation H9, the next-generation H7, and the production version of the Hongqi off-roader.
The next-generation H9 is positioned as a C+ class intelligent luxury flagship sedan. It is among the first to feature Huawei's Qiankun ADS 5 intelligent driving system, packing an 896-line dual-path image-grade LiDAR and 40 high-sensitivity sensors. This setup allows the vehicle to detect objects as small as 14 centimeters from 120 meters away while traveling at 120 km/h. Inside, it utilizes the HarmonySpace cockpit, while power comes from a world-first 2.0T longitudinal two-speed hybrid system, complete with rear-wheel steering.
The next-generation H7 is a C-class luxury hybrid sedan featuring an "integrated double door ring" structure and "hexahedron fortress protection" battery technology. It comes equipped with Hongqi's Sinan advanced driver-assistance system and the Lingxi 5.0 cockpit, achieving energy consumption of 4.4 liters per 100 kilometers. The production off-roader, meanwhile, boasts a non-unibody body, three differential locks, and a vector-controlled four-motor setup, having endured over 7.7 million kilometers of testing. All three models are slated to hit the market in the second half of 2026.
The Hongqi Jin Kuihua sub-brand introduced three custom-themed models: the Guoli Silk Road, Guoya Sea Rhyme, and Guoyao Gallop. These vehicles integrate intangible cultural heritage crafts like Xiang embroidery and Yun brocade into their interiors. The booth also hosted the "Dingli Oriental" haute couture art exhibition, where customers could select bespoke options featuring gold-inlaid jade and Cloisonné craftsmanship.
The Hongqi Tiangong sub-brand staged the global debut of its "S-concept" show car. It adopts a cabin-driving integrated central control architecture and AI chassis technology capable of sensing road conditions 1,000 meters ahead in real time. The vehicle represents the first solution to meet stringent L2 standards while targeting mass production for L3 and L4 autonomous driving. Additionally, mass-market pure electric models like the Tiangong 05, 06, and 08 were displayed alongside the concept.
