Positioned as a large 5-seat family SUV, it measures 4900/1924/1759mm with a 2863mm wheelbase, powered by a 132kW 1.5T dedicated hybrid engine paired with a Sunwoda ternary lithium battery (no external charging support) and a top speed of 180km/h.

Positioned as a spacious family SUV for light off-road scenarios, it measures 4636/1920/1855mm with a 2820mm wheelbase, adopting a retro boxy design. Powered by a 1.5T range extender, the single-motor variant delivers 185kW combined power with 210km CLTC pure electric range and 1240km total range; the dual-motor variant outputs 335kW, sprints 0-100km/h in 5.8s, with 200km CLTC pure electric range and 1210km total range, and completes 30%-80% DC fast charging in just 15 minutes. The interior is equipped with a 15.4-inch 2.5K floating central control screen powered by the Snapdragon QCM8538 chip, supporting 5G and full-platform smartphone interconnection.

The BEV version is the first 100,000-yuan segment model to provide two battery options: ternary lithium and manganese-based semi-solid battery. The PHEV variant is powered by a 1.5L dedicated hybrid engine with a 175kW peak drive motor. Expected to start pre-sales in Q1 2027 with main trims priced around 100,000 RMB, it will form a complementary family SUV product matrix with the already launched Jiayue 07.
