On July 19, Great Wall Motor (GWM) announced that the cockpit screens within its Wey brand’s Lanshan Intelligent Driving Edition have obtained the first TÜV Rheinland Flicker-Free Certification in the automotive industry. Previously, these cockpit screens have also obtained the TÜV Low Blue Light (Hardware Solution) Certification. The new car is expected to be officially launched in late August.
According to GWM’s official statements, the screens equipped with its Coffee Vision system reduce harmful blue light emission and flickers by changing the spectral distribution of LED backlight or using special filter materials, rather than relying solely on software color adjustment to achieve the effect, to reduce the risk of eye fatigue and vision damage after prolonged usage.
Positioned as a medium-to-large SUV, the new car has a size of 5156/1980/1805 mm, and the wheelbase is 3050 mm, which is the same as the existing DHT-PHEV trim (see spec here). The new car also continues the exterior design of the existing trim, with a watchtower Hesai 128-line lidar on the roof, three millimeter-wave radars, 12 ultrasonic radars, and 11 high-definition cameras, to support the Coffee Pilot Ultra intelligent driving assistance system.
The cockpit is equipped with dual 15.6-inch screens as the central control screen and co-pilot screen, a 12.3-inch full LCD instrument panel, a 17.3-inch ceiling entertainment screen, and a 29-inch Coffee SR-HUD. At the same time, the cockpit is powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295 chip. The operating system is supported by the latest Coffee OS 3.
Furthermore, the interior adopts a 2+2+2 six-seater layout. The rear passengers have access to small tray tables, independent air conditioning, window privacy curtains, heated/ventilated/massage seats, and leg rest. The 7L onboard refrigerator is located in the armrest box and there are 23 speakers throughout the interior.
The powertrain is composed of GWM’s Hi4 plug-in hybrid technology consisting of a 1.5T engine and front + rear electric motors, mated to a 4-speed DHT. The 1.5T engine has a maximum power of 125 kW (168 hp). Its 0 – 100 km/h acceleration time is 4.9 seconds. Additionally, the battery pack has been upgraded to two specifications, 44.5 kWh and 52.3 kWh. The former has a WLTC pure electric range of 185 km and a comprehensive range of 1,307 km; the latter has a pure electric range of 220 km and a comprehensive range of 1,342 km. The official powertrain parameters still need to be confirmed by GWM.
In the first half of 2024, GWM’s cumulative sales volume was 559,669 vehicles, of which 132,374 units were new energy vehicles, a year-on-year increase of 41.99%.
