GWM Unveils World-Class Safety & Testing Facilities: Safety Built on Data, Not Hype
During the 2026 Beijing Auto Show, GWM hosted a Tech Day event, opening its global safety and testing complex to hundreds of international journalists and overseas dealers, who engaged in in-depth exchanges with engineers. No staged demos, no polished pitches—only real engineering: black electromagnetic absorbers, a 120-ton rotating crash barrier, and an ORA 5 undergoing a 60 km/h side impact in full view of witnesses. Frontier Tech in Focus: Global Media Eagerly Inquire About Rollout Timelines During the Tech Day event, technical experts from GWM delivered in-depth technical analyses on all-scenario intelligent driving, next-generation smart cockpits, and the Hi4 powertrain family. The smart cockpit, powered by the Coffee OS 3 system, stood out with its five defining qualities – " Good-looking, Easy to Use, Fun to Use, Pleasant to Hear, and Highly Intelligent." GWM's driver assistance system also earned strong acclaim for its forward-looking design and broad adaptability, particularly its thorough consideration of global regulations, local driving habits, scenario adaptability, and data localization strategies–a clear reflection of GWM's global R&D vision. Meanwhile, the Hi4 powertrain family impressed attendees with its all-scenario capability and exceptional performance. Throughout the event, media representatives from various countries and regions eagerly inquired about the local rollout plans and timelines for these cutting-edge technologies. A Foundation of Self-Reliance: Power and Validation Built In-House Technical confidence starts with self‑developed power. Based on its Forest Ecosystem architecture, GWM has independently created 4.0T V8 and 3.0T V6 engines plus advanced diesel hybrid systems. To prove safety rather than just claim it, GWM built China’s first independent comprehensive proving ground, high‑altitude simulation lab, and climatic wind tunnel, forming a full‑life‑cycle validation system for global markets. Launched in 2025, the GWM Safety Lab represents a 510‑million‑yuan investment across 57,000 square meters, serving as the core of a nearly 10‑billion‑yuan testing ecosystem. Global media experienced the facility with no guided script, seeing authentic validation rather than curated showcases. Core Labs: Engineering Excellence Behind Every Detail Inside the EMC Chamber, full shielding and wave‑absorbing materials enable 360‑degree testing with all electronic systems active. GWM’s internal standard limits electromagnetic radiation to less than one‑fifth of the national legal requirement. The 30‑million‑yuan NVH anechoic chamber uses a double‑layer room‑in‑room structure to reach 20 dB. The 300‑million‑yuan climatic wind tunnel covers 2,800 square meters, simulating ‑40°C to 60°C, 5%–95% humidity, and winds up to 250 km/h. “To use the same calibration in the Middle East and Northern Europe without validation is gambling, not engineering,” a senior engineer noted,”Every GWM vehicle passes extreme cold, heat, and humidity tests before market launch. “ Crash Test Center: Where Every Millisecond Defines Safety GWM’s crash lab supports Euro NCAP, C‑NCAP, and FMVSS standards. In the Multi‑Angle Crash Zone, the high-speed camera captures 4,000 frames per second, allowing it to clearly record the trajectory of a bullet's movement. In this way, engineers can split the 0.1-second crash into hundreds of parts and observe and analyze them frame by frame. Below the track, a glass‑covered camera pit captures underbody deformation in real time. The 120-ton moving deformable barrier withstands a 3.5‑ton vehicle crashing at 80 km/h. In the laboratory. It is possible to simulate vehicle collisions with guardrails on both sides of the highway, as well as full-scenario drop and rollover conditions for both left-hand drive and right-hand drive vehicles. “Rollover risk is deadly, so we test more rigorously than any other brand,” an engineer explained. The AEB pre‑collision track simulates real‑world “brake then crash” conditions to ensure restraints and airbags work in sync. The New Energy Safety Zone manages thermal runaway with automated submergence in 30 seconds and AI firefighting for severe cases. GWM’s 34 high‑precision crash dummies include $1.7‑million THOR units and $1.1‑million WorldSID side‑impact units. “Dummies are not props—they define life‑saving boundaries,” engineers stressed. ORA 5 Euro NCAP Test: Five-Star Safety Ready for Europe In the on-site side impact test referencing Euro NCAP, the ORA 5 destined for Europe was struck at 60 km/h with one adult and two child dummies. The vehicle moved 5 meters, activated hazard lights, showed zero fuel leakage, and kept doors closed for occupant protection. With 75% high‑strength steel, 2,000‑MPa submarine‑grade A‑pillars, 1,500‑MPa door beams, full‑coverage airbags, and adaptive seatbelts, the ORA 5 is on track for a Euro NCAP five‑star safety rating. Strategic Vision: Trust, Safety and Tech Sovereignty By opening its labs transparently, GWM builds global trust with tangible engineering rather than marketing. Safety validation clears regional barriers for Europe, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and North America, enabling synchronized global launches. Full‑stack self‑developed systems, industry‑first rotating barriers, and exclusive rollover testing mark GWM’s shift from adopting global tools to defining global standards. As one senior dealer commented: “This is exactly what we needed to see.” GWM’s global safety promise is clear: safety built on data, proven in labs, trusted worldwide.

GWM Global All-Scenario Test Drive: Finding Answers for the World, in China
During the Beijing Auto Show, GWM hosted an unprecedented global test drive event at its global R&D Center and proving ground. The program brought together leading automotive media from international markets and key dealer partners to experience GWM’s latest lineup, including the ORA 5, WEY V9X, TANK 700, and WEY G9—spanning hybrid, pure electric, and internal combustion powertrains. By organizing a large-scale global driving experience at its headquarters, GWM aims to present the full strength of its product portfolio to international markets, while demonstrating its commitment to offering consumers genuine freedom of choice. Global Adaptability Across All Powertrains For many overseas consumers, doubts about Chinese brands rarely center on technical specifications. Instead, they come down to a deeper concern: trust. Laboratory data is often obtained under ideal conditions, but real-world vehicle performance—especially under extreme environments and complex scenarios—requires tangible validation. By hosting this event on its “home ground,” GWM seeks to build confidence through transparent, real-world testing. After experiencing the TANK 300 on a professional off-road course, one automotive editor commented:“GWM’s Hi4T new energy off-road powertrain is highly impressive. The brand places strong emphasis on driving feel, and GWM off-road grading system can provide valuable guidance for beginners. It aligns perfectly with evolving consumer expectations today.” The event featured multiple dedicated modules, including track driving, off-road terrain challenges, and intelligent driving assistance scenarios—each designed to replicate typical usage conditions across global markets. During the dealer test drives, a representative from Australia noted: “Overseas customers have high expectations for all-wheel-drive capability and off-road performance. The Hi4 system left a strong impression on me—especially its torque vectoring response, which is much quicker than I anticipated. It inspires great confidence when cornering.” A participant from Southeast Asia highlighted another perspective: “Traffic congestion in Kuala Lumpur and flooded roads during heavy rain in Bangkok are among the most common concerns from our customers. The Hi4 system’s smoothness under frequent stop-and-go conditions, as well as its vehicle stability on waterlogged roads, exceeded my previous expectations of Chinese brands.” Intelligent Driving, Ready to Adapt to Local Markets Among the most closely watched elements of the event was the urban NOA (Navigation on Autopilot) system featured on the WEY G9 and WEY V9X. The test took place on real urban roads in China, including construction detours, mixed traffic with electric two-wheelers, complex intersections, and unprotected left turns—some of the most challenging everyday driving scenarios. One international automotive content creator completed the entire urban NOA route without manual intervention and remarked: “This is incredible. We’re not talking about a controlled test track—the city environment is extremely complex, with a wide range of road users. The system’s ability to recognize and predict their behavior exceeded my expectations.” Another journalist observed: “The core concern among overseas consumers is whether Chinese intelligent driving technologies can truly function in foreign markets. This real-world test showed that the system already covers pretty much every scenario you can think of, so we can easily roll it out in our local market.” In a lighter moment, media representatives from Morocco used the WEY G9’s intelligent cockpit audio system to perform Adele’s “Someone Like You.” The clear high notes and rich vocal reproduction quickly drew a crowd—offering a vivid demonstration of the vehicle’s product quality through sound. Dealers: Long-Term Commitment Matters Most Alongside the test drives, GWM organized in-depth exchanges between dealers and media, underscoring its openness to feedback and commitment to listening. A dealer representative commented: “European consumers are beginning to take notice of GWM, but their main concern is whether the brand will have a long-term presence in Europe. This event helped me find my own answer. Customers don’t just want products; they want to know the company’s technical ability and adaptability. What I’ve seen today gives me real confidence in GWM’s ‘integrity’ — or in other words, their work ethic and long-term global strategy.” This was not a one-way narrative of a Chinese brand showcasing its products to the world, but a genuine two-way validation. As the event concluded, GWM summarized its intent with a clear message: “We didn’t invite you here simply to demonstrate our product strength or to ask for praise. We invited you to give us honest feedback—so we can build better products for consumers in your local markets.”

On April 24, the 18th 2026 Beijing Auto Show officially kicked off. CHERY brought its heavyweight model — the TIGGO V — to the exhibition booth. As the first transformable multi-functional family SUV in the TIGGO family, the TIGGO V is built with a scenario-driven product concept. It helps CHERY expand the global multi-functional vehicle market, fill the gap in relevant categories, and bring more flexible and practical mobility options to global family users. Jeff ZHANG, CEO of CHERY Brand, stated that every innovation of CHERY is driven by one original aspiration: For Family. The brand has always focused on the real travel needs of global families, and "For Family" has never been just a slogan, but our solemn commitment — to guard the peace and beauty of every family journey with reliable quality and warm technology. The TIGGO V is the new implementation of this commitment. The "V" in the model name carries three core meanings: Versatility: It not only delivers the calmness of an SUV, but also the comfort of an MPV, the romance of a camping RV, and the robustness of a pickup. Value: It adapts to all family travel scenarios, being efficient and practical to reduce the burden and worries for families. Victory: It symbolizes that it will accompany families all the way, to every victory they pursue for a better life. The TIGGO V is built for multi-purpose use and full-scenario adaptation, integrating the functions of SUV, MPV and Pickup into one vehicle. It combines a versatile body, spacious space, comfortable cabin and all-domain safety protection, fulfilling CHERY's commitment to global families, allowing more families to enjoy affordable, reliable and high-quality all-round mobility. This is also the first all-round family vehicle launched by CHERY after the release of the "2030 Ten-Million Family Letters Plan" and the new "For Family" value proposition. It carries CHERY's commitment to global family users, delivers products that are close to their needs, and fulfills the brand value of practicality, reliability and thoughtfulness. SUV Mode: Tiger-inspired Aesthetics, All-domain Safety Guards the Whole Family In daily travel, stable and reliable performance is the basic need. In SUV mode, the TIGGO V brings family users a travel experience that balances urban commuting and outdoor outings. The new car adopts the family's Tiger-inspired practical aesthetic design: a Tiger Roar front face paired with a V-shaped grille and Tiger Claw LED headlights. The tough and square profile balances visual presence and space utilization, with higher recognition for night driving. In terms of safety, 76% of the body is made of high-strength steel and aluminum, with key collision areas reinforced. It is equipped with the Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS), which includes functions such as Forward Collision Warning (FCW) and Autonomous Emergency Braking (AEB), as well as APA (Automatic Parking Assist) & RPA (Remote Parking Assist) intelligent parking technology providing multi-dimensional safety protection for family users. MPV Mode: True 3-Row Spacious Cabin, Healthy and Comfortable All the Way Beyond basic travel, family trips with multiple people have higher demands for space and comfort. The TIGGO V can switch to MPV mode to better adapt to multi-passenger scenarios. With a 2800mm wheelbase, the new car features a true 3-row 7-seat layout, with an interior Z-direction height of 1297mm. In MPV mode, the independent second-row seats support 380mm slide adjustment, and the X-direction dimension from the first to the third row reaches 1719mm. The seats can be flexibly folded to form the Bed mode, bringing a spacious and open riding space for passengers. The whole car is also equipped with 42 storage spaces, which can orderly store all kinds of daily personal items, meeting the storage needs of family travel. In terms of comfort, the vehicle is equipped with independent air conditioning vents for all three rows and dual-zone automatic air conditioning, which can quickly adjust the interior temperature, balancing the comfort of front and rear passengers. Paired with a healthy cabin with N95-grade PM0.3 high-efficiency air filter, it can effectively filter harmful particles and odors, bringing a more reassuring and comfortable experience for families during long trips and outdoor rest. PUP Mode: Quick-detach Versatile Loading, Perfect for Outdoor and Commercial Use Faced with special usage scenarios such as loading large items and outdoor activities, the TIGGO V can also switch to PUP mode to further expand the vehicle's usage boundaries.The rear of the new car is equipped with a quick-detach barrier structure, which easily realizes the switch from SUV to PUP form, effectively improving the vehicle's loading capacity.The large-opening tailgate, paired with flexible folding seats, can easily hold large luggage, camping equipment, home appliances and other goods.The new car also supports matching with original ecological kits such as roof tents, bed liners, and car refrigerators, which can meet outdoor travel, cargo loading and other usage scenarios without additional modification, truly realizing the multi-purpose use of one vehicle. All-domain Product Strength, Adapting to All Family Travel Scenarios The flexible and changeable usage form, paired with solid core performance, allows the TIGGO V to calmly handle all-scenario usage needs. The new car is equipped with CHERY's sixth-generation Chery Super Hybrid (CSH) efficient hybrid system, with stable and sufficient power output, which can calmly handle urban overtaking, high-speed cruising, and climbing with load. The PHEV version has a fuel consumption as low as 6L/100km, and the ICE version has a fuel consumption of 7.84L/100km, balancing power performance and fuel economy. At the same time, the new car is equipped with a professional high-passability chassis, with a ground clearance of 220mm. The PHEV version has a wading depth of 700mm, and the ICE version has 650mm, with a climbing angle of up to 30°, which can adapt to urban roads and unpaved roads. The chassis tuning balances the comfort of urban roads and the stability of unpaved roads. It runs smoothly and quietly on paved roads, has moderate shock absorption on complex roads, keeps the body posture stable, and brings a more comfortable riding experience. The official debut of the TIGGO V at AutoChina2026 is not only an important practice of CHERY in the field of multi-functional family vehicles, but also a key step for the brand to be user-centric and deepen global layout. Based on the real travel demands of millions of families, and relying on the global R&D, manufacturing and service system, CHERY has adhered to the original aspiration and direction of For Family, continuously using scenario-driven innovation and practical technology to create travel products that are more in line with life, integrating safe, comfortable and convenient travel experience into daily family life, making every trip warmer and more high-quality. In the future, CHERY will continue to deeply cultivate the global family travel field, with practical and reliable products, thoughtful and comprehensive experience, to accompany thousands of families all the way, and go to more beautiful journeys together.
