Gasgoo Munich- Wey's second-generation Lanshan officially opened for pre-sales on Nov. 9, with prices starting at 289,800 yuan. The SUV stakes out a new niche as a luxury “boxy” vehicle, built around three pillars: peak design, intelligence, and performance. It offers both five- and six-seat layouts, targeting affluent families.
Wey bills the second-generation Lanshan as the pioneer of a smart, luxury boxy segment. The automaker says the model breaks the cookie-cutter mold among flagship SUVs—ending the trade-off between urban refinement and off-road capability—and enters the premium family SUV market with no compromises across any scenario. Design-wise, it leans into a chiseled silhouette and original aesthetics, aiming for a striking, instantly recognizable presence.

On the tech front, the second-generation Lanshan runs the latest Coffee Pilot 4 V5 system with a VLA Plus model, promising proactive assistance where “the car understands the driver better than the driver understands the car.” Hardware includes a dual-flagship chipset setup—Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8797 paired with Nvidia’s Thor-U—backed by 28 high-performance sensors to handle complex urban and off-road environments.
For performance, the SUV relies on a “2468” powertrain architecture, featuring a self-developed rear differential lock and all-terrain modes. Ride height and damping stiffness are both adjustable. Bidirectional 20-degree rear-axle steering and a closed dual-chamber air suspension give the large SUV the agility of a much smaller vehicle, Wey claims. The powertrain has been validated over hundreds of thousands of kilometers of real-world testing.
Safety hardware includes a hot-stamped, integrated double-door ring structure. High-strength steel makes up 80.2% of the body, and the roof can withstand 14.06 tons of pressure. The SUV packs AEB, AES, and RAEB systems, plus driver-incapacitation assist, while the battery is shielded by a six-layer armor structure. Wey stresses it isn't building rush jobs—sparing no expense, the brand says, on safety and reliability.
