These models reflect a radical change in our design philosophy that we believe is as modern and innovative as the technology in the cars themselves.

“We are truly excited to unveil the cars to the Philippines soon! With the continuously growing highly competitive EV landscape in the country, the Hongqi EH7 and Hongqi EHS7 will both have great things to offer to our market.”
