Recently, Great Wall Motors revealed a high-end D-class SUV at the "Guiyuan Platform" press conference, which attracted a lot of attention. Subsequently, CEO Wei Pai released a silhouette of an SUV with a stretched shape through social platforms. It is widely speculated that this may be the new flagship model referred to at the press conference.
If this speculation is true, then this car will be the first product launched on the "Guiyuan Platform" and is likely to carry Wei Brand's vision of impacting the higher-end market. Judging from the known information, the new car is expected to bring new experiences in multiple dimensions such as size, power, intelligence and safety.
Appearance and space: The silhouette has shown its strength and may become a benchmark for space in its class.
Although there is only one silhouette picture at present, it can still be seen that the new car has smooth and steady lines, a stretched posture, and a sense of calmness that a flagship model should have. Referring to Wei's existing product line, the length of the new Lanshan, positioned as a large six-seater SUV, has exceeded 5.1 meters, and the body length of this flagship model, which is positioned even higher, is expected to reach about 5.3 meters. If so, it i

Although there is only one silhouette picture at present, it can still be seen that the new car has smooth and steady lines, a stretched posture, and a sense of calmness that a flagship model should have. Referring to Wei's existing product line, the length of the new Lanshan, positioned as a large six-seater SUV, has exceeded 5.1 meters, and the body length of this flagship model, which is positioned even higher, is expected to reach about 5.3 meters. If so, it is likely to become the size leader in the "big 9 Series" class in the current market.
The larger body not only makes the appearance stronger, but also provides more possibilities for the layout of the interior space. Both the seating width for front and rear passengers and the loading capacity of the trunk are expected to be significantly improved. For multi-person travel scenarios that family users are particularly concerned about - such as luggage storage when six seats are fully loaded - this car may be able to provide a more leisurely solution.
Power and battery life: full-scenario performance guesswork, taking into account both power and efficiency
According to the technical direction released at the "Guiyuan Platform" conference, this flagship SUV is likely to be equipped with the "Super Hi4 Architecture". Among them, the combination of a 2.0T high-efficiency hybrid engine and a stronger electric drive unit is expected to maintain "4-second level" acceleration capability regardless of whether it is fully charged or fed. This may be a different technical response to some current models that use extended-range solutions and whose power performance is compromised during power feeding.
In terms of energy replenishment and energy consumption, the new car is expected to be equipped with an 800V high-voltage system and SiC electric drive technology, thereby greatly increasing the charging speed. Coupled with the larger-capacity battery pack and the allegedly fuel consumption performance of only 6.3L/100km in the fed state, its WLTC comprehensive cruising range may reach a level close to 1,400 kilometers, pushing the cruising capability of a large six-seater SUV to a new height.
In addition, the "Guiyuan Platform" itself supports various power forms such as pure electric and hybrid, so this flagship model may also provide different power versions in the future to meet the differentiated needs of more users.
Intelligent experience: Double VLA large model or on board, bringing technology closer to people
Intelligence is likely to become another highlight of this new car. As the brand flagship, it is expected to be equipped with the world's first "dual VLA large model" proposed by Guiyuan Platform, serving two scenarios of assisted driving and smart cockpit respectively.
In terms of assisted driving, the system that integrates VLA and world model may change the previous logic of "not processing if it is not sensed" and try to identify potential risks through common sense and prediction. For example, in blind spots or complex road conditions, the system may first slow down gently and then carefully explore the road to improve driving safety.
In the cockpit, the VLA large model may not only accurately recognize voice commands, but also gradually learn user habits and perceive passenger emotions, subtly transforming the car-machine interaction from "execution of commands" to "active companionship". If realized, this may make smart technology appear warmer.
Safety concept: from passive protection to active prediction
Safety has always been an important aspect for Wei brand models to be recognized. Based on the new platform, the safety concept of this flagship SUV may further evolve, from "post-collision protection" to an integrated strategy of "pre-collision prediction + full-process protection".
For example, when the system predicts that a rear-end collision may occur, in addition to conventional braking and warning, it may also adjust the airbag triggering strategy in advance to better cope with the impact. If the passenger is using the zero-gravity seat mode, when the system senses the risk of collision, it may be able to adjust the seat back to a safer posture in advance, thereby reducing the possibility of injury. This idea of deeply integrating active safety and passive safety embodies a more comprehensive and considerate view of safety protection.
Although there is no official news about the specific configuration, naming or even the official debut time of this car, as the first flagship work of the "Guiyuan Platform", it undoubtedly carries a lot of technological accumulation and market expectations. From space, power, energy consumption to intelligence and safety, every dimension reveals Weipai’s understanding and ambition of high-end, full-scenario SUVs.
If the final mass-produced car can implement these conjectures, then it may not only be an important step forward for the Wei brand, but may also bring a new and noteworthy option to the high-end SUV market in 2026. We might as well stay tuned and wait for more information to be released.
