Hongqi released a prototype of the crossover, which will challenge Lixiang L9

The FAW premium press service confirmed: there was a prototype with the conveyor with the P701 intra-factory code. Interestingly, in the official picture, the car is chopped, although the concept was shown without hiding. It is expected that Hongqi HS9 will be a charged hybrid with two electric motors, a 2.0-liter turbo engine, a six- or seven-seater layout.

The intra -factory code P701 hints at the hierarchy: the fact is that the main limousine of Xi Jinping is called N701. The official name HS9 PHEV is also selected symbolically: a sequential hybrid will probably replace in the model line a progressive for its time, but a commercially dubious E-HS9 electric car.

The imitation of Rolls-Royce in the past: the new Hongqi HS9 has become more streamlined and does not directly copy competitors. Lighting technology in the spirit of modern FAW premium models, but the bronze inserts and the composite lid of the trunk hint that the designers were inspired by the Range Rover SV. There are no details about dimensions and equipment, but an active suspension, steering “on wires”, autopilot and other “chips” are expected.

The premiere of the Hongqi hybrid flagship is expected in 2025. The goal in the domestic market is to squeeze the Lixiang L9, but you will have to compete with Zeekr 9x and other analogues. In Russia, HS9 PHEV may also appear, because for E-HS9 our market has become one of the first.
