The Wenjie M5 is equipped with the Huawei DriveONE drive system, including a 1.5T four-cylinder range extender and a combination of asynchronous AC motors and permanent magnet synchronous motors.
It can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 4.4 seconds for the 4WD flagship version and 4.8 seconds for the 4WD performance model.
On March 5 this year, AITO held a delivery ceremony in Shanghai to deliver the M5 to the first batch of over 100 owners.
AITO delivered 3,045 M5s in March and 3,245 in April.
On May 28, Huawei’s Yu said at an event on the first day of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area International Auto Show (Auto Shenzhen 2022) that an all-electric version of the Wenjie M5 will be available in September.
In addition, Yu also mentioned that AITO will unveil the Wenjie M7, a large six-seat SUV, between June 20-29, and that deliveries will begin at the end of July.
