The Yangwang U7 is set to launch within the first quarter of this year. Positioned as a large sedan, the new model will be available in both all-electric and plug-in hybrid powertrain options. Previously, the U7 was unveiled for pre-sale at the Guangzhou Auto Show, though pricing details were not disclosed.
Exterior Design
The Yangwang U7 adopts a design language similar to the Yangwang U9, featuring an aggressive front-end with C-shaped headlights and LED light strips surrounding the main headlamp cluster. The sculpted hood enhances the car's muscular and imposing front appearance.
From the side, the U7 boasts large aerodynamic wheels with a sleek, low-profile silhouette. The front fenders feature air vents, while flush door handles, a signature of modern EVs, contribute to the clean design. At the rear, a full-width LED taillight enhances the tech-forward aesthetic, while the multi-layered rear bumper design adds depth to the rear-end styling.
Interior Features
Inside, the Yangwang U7 features a symmetrical dashboard design with a large vertically oriented central touchscreen, complemented by integrated digital instrument displays on both sides and an additional screen for the front passenger, maximizing the high-tech ambiance.
The dual-tone interior is accentuated with chrome elements, enhancing its premium feel. The rear cabin offers independent seats, a central armrest entertainment control screen, and rear entertainment displays, ensuring an immersive experience for rear passengers.

The Yangwang U7 is available in two powertrain options: pure electric (EV) and plug-in hybrid (PHEV).
