Huawei has announced that the new Luxeed S7 model has been launched in over 300 stores across 83 cities in China and is expected to start accepting reservations this month. This new vehicle offers a variety of exterior colors and matching 19 or 20-inch wheels, equipped with Huawei's high-voltage DriveONE 800V platform, and is available in basic or advanced versions of the ADS 3.0 intelligent driving system.
The current price range of the Luxeed S7 is between 249,800 and 349,800 Yuan, equivalent to approximately 34,800 to 48,700 US dollars. Despite this, only 2,522 units were sold in October, indicating a relatively lackluster sales performance. In December last year, only 784 units were sold, while sales in January and February of this year were 604 and 794 units, respectively.
The new Luxeed S7 offers four exterior colors: red, purple, blue, and light blue, whereas the existing models offer five colors: white, silver, black, beige, and blue. The new vehicle measures 4971 mm in length, 1963 mm in width, and 1474 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 2950 mm, and these dimensions are expected to remain unchanged in the new version.
The exterior design remains nearly identical to the current model, featuring a closed front, small headlights, and hidden door handles. Additionally, some available models continue to come with a roof-mounted lidar.
Inside, the cockpit is equipped with a three-spoke steering wheel, a streamlined dashboard, and a central control screen, with a multi-layer central console that includes wireless phone charging, cup holders, and additional storage space at the bottom. Huawei's HarmonyOS 4 operating system supports it.
Moreover, the new Luxeed S7 is expected to continue using the high-voltage DriveONE 800V silicon carbide power platform, with a total power of 489 horsepower from the front asynchronous motor and rear permanent magnet synchronous motor, achieving a 0 to 100 km/h acceleration time of 3.3 seconds. The single-motor version has a maximum power of 288 horsepower, a 0 to 100 km/h acceleration time of 5.4 seconds, and a driving range of 855 km with a 100 kWh lithium-ion battery. The specific details of the powertrain and final specifications have not been officially disclosed yet.
