In terms of appearance, compared with most new energy vehicles on the market, Hongqi EH7 is a school of its own, with a slightly dynamic tear-eye headlight and a "smile" opening design below, which is novel and recognizable. The closed front of the car also gives people a certain sense of fullness, which is in line with the positioning of new energy vehicles.
The overall side shape is sleek, with short front and rear overhangs, and a long wheelbase design to ensure maximum space in the corners of the four wheels, while there is a significant bulge on the top of the car in the C-pillar position to further ensure the headroom of the second-row passengers.

The combination of extensive upholstery and chrome trim further enhances the luxurious feel of the cabin.
The center console adopts a 6-inch LCD instrument cluster + 15.5-inch special-shaped curved screen + AR HUD head-up display, leaving the traditional impression of a dual screen or a fish screen, and the design level is quite bold.
