The new Mengshi M817, developed by Mengshi Auto in partnership with Huawei QianKun, completed its global debut and opened for pre-orders with an official starting price of ¥370,000. The announcement highlights the collaboration between the automaker and Huawei’s unit, signaling continued ties between traditional automakers and major tech firms on vehicle development. The presale launch matters because it positions the M817 as a premium offering in China’s competitive new-energy and smart vehicle market, where partnerships with tech companies can accelerate connectivity, software-defined features, and advanced electronics. Market reception and technical specs will determine its impact against rivals in EV and intelligent vehicle segments.
Huawei’s QianKun and GAC-backed premium EV brand Envision (QiJing) opened pre-sales for the Envision GT7 starting at ¥219,900, with deliveries slated after a June launch. The GT7 lineup spans Standard, Ultra, Ultra Long Range and Tri-motor performance variants (up to 768 hp, 0-100 km/h in 2.98s) and offers 770–900 km CLTC ranges using 800V Ningde batteries. Key tech highlights: Huawei QianKun ADS 5 automated driving (up to 36 sensors, 896-line dual-path lidar, eightfold hardware redundancy), HUAWEI XMC digital chassis (“ChiTu” τ-law platform), Harmony Space cabin with HUAWEI SOUND, large AR HUD and advanced active safety. The car targets high-end intelligent mobility with broad dealer rollout and integrated Huawei software/hardware stacks.
Dongfeng Yipai unveiled the M8 large mid-size SUV at its global debut, positioning it as a premium six-seater and announcing Q3 sales. The M8 will offer pure-electric (800V platform, 230 kW motor, up to 600 km CLTC) and range-extended variants (95 kW range extender, 215 kW peak motor, 300 km CLTC electric range). It integrates Huawei’s “QianKun six-piece” suite—ADS 5 Pro driving, HarmonyOS Cabin 5.2, vehicle control, vehicle cloud, Whalefin connectivity, and HUAWEI SOUND 21 speakers—following an upgraded strategic partnership. The cabin emphasizes luxury and tech with a 50-inch AR-HUD, dual big screens, advanced second-row reclining/massage seats, extensive storage, and high-end HVAC and power features.
The Huawei QianKun and GAC joint brand Enjing announced the Enjing GT7 will open pre-sales on May 29 and begin deliveries after a June launch. The mid-large intelligent shooting brake features advanced hardware: HUAWEI XPIXEL million-pixel projection headlights, an 88-inch AR HUD, 15.6-inch central display, Harmony Space cockpit with conversational AI “Xiaoyi,” and HUAWEI SOUND. It embeds ADS 5 autonomy with L3-ready architecture, an industry-leading 896-line dual-path imaging LiDAR plus multiple radars and cameras, and full-chain redundancy. Built on an 800V platform, single- and tri-motor variants use a Huawei–Enjing–CATL “Kirin” battery up to 102.768 kWh (claimed up to 900 km CLTC) and 0–100 km/h in 2.98s for the tri-motor. This launch signals Huawei’s deeper move into high-end intelligent EV systems and vehicle-grade AI integration.
Most newsworthy: Mengshi Automotive will open pre-sales for the new Mengshi M817 on May 29 at the Greater Bay Area Auto Show and simultaneously unveil the Huawei QianKun co-developed high-performance M817 Ultimate. The Ultimate pairs Mengshi’s PanShi chassis 2.0 and “Extreme Power 2.0” with Huawei QianKun’s top-tier intelligence—centimeter-level perception, millisecond response, ADS 5 driving suite, NCA off-road autonomy, and a production 896-line LiDAR—promising strong off-road performance and sustained power at 140 km/h. The move follows a deeper strategic 2.0 cooperation between Mengshi and Huawei to deliver four new models over two years and build an intelligent off-road ecosystem, with the current M817 already shipping HarmonySpace 5 and QianKun ADS 4. Why it matters: it signals Huawei’s expanding automotive stack adoption and OEMs pushing advanced autonomy and sensor integration into off-road SUVs.
