Overview

The VV7, formerly known as the 01 in development phase, is the first product of Great Wall Motor’s brand, WEY. The VV7 was based on the same architecture that underpins the WEY VV5 and Haval H6 crossovers. The design of the VV7 was first previewed by the Haval Coupe Concept.

The VV7 comes with two trim levels: an entry level model named VV7 C and a sportier model named the VV7 S.[1]

The WEY VV7 is powered by a 2.0 liter turbo engine code named GW4E20CB, with a maximum output of 227hp/5500rpm and a torque of 387N·m/1800-3600rpm mated to a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.[2]
