On November 19, Great Wall Motor (GWM) unveiled the first model “Mecha Dragon (JiJiaLong)” under its electric sub-brand Saloon at an automotive trade show in Guangzhou.
With a design based on advanced mechanical esthetics, the new model features a sharp 160-degree angle that leads to the headlights, angular lines on both sides and Mini LED taillights with display content that can be customized.
The Mecha Dragon is the first in the world that adopts four LiDAR units (Huawei’s 96-channel hybrid solid-state LiDAR); the car can detect objects and pedestrians at a distance of ≥200 m and ≥150 m respectively.
