Huawei unveils Smart World S7, its debut sedan, offering pre-sales from 258,000 yuan.

【PhoneAuto News】In the era of smart travel, cars are not only a means of transportation but also a way of life. How to create a high-energy product that meets diverse user needs while being disruptive and leading-edge is the pursuit of Huawei’s Smart Selection Car business. On November 9th, the highly anticipated ultra-luxury all-electric sedan Smart Selection S7 was officially released. The car is jointly developed by Huawei and Chery, making it the first sedan of Huawei’s Smart Selection Car business and a perfect interpretation of Huawei’s full-stack intelligent car solution. The starting price for the new car is 258,000 yuan, and customers who pre-order during the pre-sale period can enjoy benefits worth 40,000 yuan.

As a model deeply empowered by Huawei, the Smart Selection S7 also maintains Huawei’s high standards in terms of exterior design. The car’s overall design is based on Huawei’s new design concept for Smart Selection Cars, breaking away from the traditional design ideas and architectural constraints of cars. Through the integrated One-Box body proportion, it not only brings excellent aerodynamics but also provides an unimaginable longitudinal and lateral interior space.

• China Automobile Dealers Association The comprehensive inventory coefficient of automobile dealers in October was 1.70.
• BYD Formula Leopard Leopard 5 officially launched, starting at 2.898 million yuan.
• Huawei is actually the hidden big boss of the Chinese automotive industry. How can this be said?

Specifically, the front design of the Smart Selection S7 adopts Huawei’s new family design, integrating position lights, high and low beams, turn signals, corner lights, wind blades, side air curtains, and other functions into a unified element, creating a “Kunpeng spreading wings”-like front design with strong visual tension. The horizontal water-cut line on the side of the body is also the presentation of the new-generation family “Horizon Design”, serving as both the symbol of Kunpeng’s transformed form and the fusion of Kunpeng’s gathered power.

The Smart Selection S7 also exhibits a strong sporty look. It has a low and muscular stance with strong front and rear wheel arches, exuding power and a sense of muscle. The vehicle is also equipped with 21-inch forged wheels, Brembo high-performance calipers, and ventilated perforated brake discs, combined with the optional Windrunner Sport Package, making the entire vehicle possess the sporty genes of a supercar. At the same time, the tire-to-body ratio of the Smart Selection S7 is as high as 0.5, surpassing many sports coupe models, achieving a balance between functionality and aesthetics.

Entering the car, the Smart World S7 also leaves a deep impression. The interior design of the Smart World S7 is inspired by a yacht-style cockpit, with a wraparound design and super wide visibility, aiming to satisfy diverse experiential needs. Through dynamic driving, co-driving pleasure, and intelligent rear compartment partition design, the Smart World S7 integrates driving enjoyment and comfortable experience, meeting various family needs simultaneously.

Specifically, the driver’s design of the vehicle is inspired by the F1 car’s leading driving system. With the help of the 12.3-inch forward-looking navigation screen and adjustable navigation seats on the sides, the driver can not only view various real-time data of the vehicle without looking down, but also have a better driving vision. At the same time, the seats provide good support, making the body more comfortable during intense driving.

In previous electric sedans, the interior space often performed poorly due to the occupation of the battery pack. However, this has been greatly optimized in the Smart World S7. With a more reasonable mechanical layout, the vehicle has a larger interior cabin space, with a cabin space utilization rate of 88%, surpassing models such as Mercedes-Benz E300L, Tesla Model S, and Porsche Taycan. Compared to the Mercedes-Benz E300L, the Smart World S7 has 150L more interior space, especially in the rear seats, which have nearly 1 meter of extra legroom. In terms of storage capacity, the co-driver also has a flexible storage compartment with upper and lower openings, even with zero-gravity seats. In addition, the vehicle has a 420L capacity trunk and up to 25 storage spaces throughout the car, providing a next-level experience for both passengers and storing items.

In terms of power, the Smart World S7 also performs well. It is equipped with Huawei’s new generation DriveONE 800V silicon carbide golden power platform. The four-wheel drive version has a maximum power of 365kW and a peak torque of 679N·m. It only takes 3.3 seconds for 0-100km/h acceleration, faster than the Porsche Taycan 4S. With the help of the intelligent oil cooling 2.0 technology, the vehicle’s power endurance has also been improved, allowing for long-distance high-speed driving.

However, running fast also requires good braking. With the assistance of the Huawei DriveONE pure electric drive intelligent platform and IPB intelligent integrated braking system, coupled with Brembo four-piston calipers and perforated brake discs, the Smart World S7 has a stopping distance of only 33.5 meters from 0 to 100km/h, also surpassing the Porsche Taycan 4S.

One of the advantages of electric cars is their ability to go fast, but one major downside is their limited range. However, the SmartWorld S7 has optimized its aerodynamics, lightweight design, and electric propulsion system to achieve a maximum range of over 800 km. In terms of aerodynamics, the SmartWorld S7 has a drag coefficient of only 0.203Cd, making it one of the best in its class. This also translates to a low energy consumption of 12.4 kW·h per 100 km, which is better than models like the Porsche Taycan GTS and Tesla Model S, and even lower than the industry benchmark Tesla Model 3 at 13.2 kW·h.

Thanks to its 800V high-voltage fast charging platform, the SmartWorld S7 can recharge at a rapid pace. With high-voltage fast charging technology, the car can gain an additional 200+ km of range in just 5 minutes of charging. In 15 minutes, it can gain 400+ km of range. It’s as quick as having a cup of coffee to quickly replenish the energy.

Lastly, the SmartWorld S7, empowered by Huawei, offers an advanced intelligent experience. It is the first model with the HarmonyOS 4 smart cockpit, where Huawei’s PanGu model enhances the capabilities of the Xiaoyi intelligent assistant, making it more powerful, smart, capable, and attentive. In terms of intelligent driving, the vehicle is equipped with the Huawei ADS 2.0 advanced intelligent driving system, which enables features like long-range autonomous parking and automatic emergency braking at speeds of up to 90 km/h. Unlike other intelligent driving systems that rely heavily on high-precision maps, the ADS 2.0 can achieve advanced intelligent driving in high-speed, urban, and parking scenarios without relying on high-precision maps. Furthermore, through continuous learning from big data, it becomes smarter and improves driving performance over time.
