On July 14, Stelato officially released the official images of its upcoming Stelato S9T station wagon, painted in “Wonderland Green”, and is expected to launch in the fall of this year. Stelato is a joint brand developed by BAIC and Huawei under the Harmony Intelligent Mobility Alliance (HIMA). The car is also HIMA’s first station wagon.
Earlier, the car was spotted covered in heavy camouflage in China.
The Stelato S9T is built based on the S9, featuring the same “Galaxy headlights”, multi-spoke rims, chrome-plated window frames and side skirts, and hidden door handles. On the contrary, the taillight adopts a new “Nebula” design, and the roof line does not slope downward until after the C-pillar compared to that of the S9. The rear lower right is printed with “S9T” to indicate the vehicle’s identity.
At the same time, the Stelato S9T is equipped with roof racks. The lidars on the roof and both sides of the front fenders imply that the vehicle will still use Huawei’s Qiankun ADS advanced driving system.
The official has not yet announced the powertrain parameters. Referencing the Stelato S9, which is offered in BEV and EREV variants:
- BEV RWD: 227 kW (304 hp)/396 Nm rear electric motor, 100 kWh ternary lithium battery, and 816 km cruising range

It is worth pointing out that in June, 4,154 units of the Stelato S9 were sold, ranking first in the sales of new energy sedans priced above 300,000 yuan (41,900 USD) in China. Currently, the Stelato S9 has six trims on the market with a price range of 309,800 – 449,800 yuan (43,200 – 62,700 USD).
