The best Spy Shots so far of the upcoming Hongqi
HS7, the second SUV for China’s iconic Hongqi brand after the Hongqi E-HS3. The
new SUV looks near-ready. Just paint the grille shiny silver and fir the right
lights, and you are basically done.
Engines are the same as in the Hongqi H7 sedan: a
188 hp 1.8 turbo, a 204 hp 2.0 turbo, and a 231 hp 3.0. A hybrid variant may be
added to the lineup in the future. The Hongqi HS7 will debut on the Chengdu
Auto Show in September and launch on the Chinese car market soon after that.
A classy interior with brown leather, black leather,
and gray leather. Surprisingly, the Golden Sunflower logo is still on the
wheel, instead of the fancy new flagpole logo Hongqi launched earlier this
year.
The Hongqi HS7 will seat five or seven. It is a large car, looking a tad too much like the
old Audi Q7.
Digital instrument panel, a large touch screen in
the middle, and a smaller one below that. The gear selector is white in every
image of the interior we have seen, so it seems this is indeed slated for
production.
