Aside from launching the Ora Good Cat facelift, GWM announced that the next model to launch in the local market is the Wey G9 Plug-in hybrid MPV. This was announced by GWM’s Chief Operating Officer (COO) Roslan Abdullah during the event earlier.
As you may recall, the Wey G9 MPV was recently previewed locally, showcasing a bold design with a large grille, slim angular LED headlights with integrated DRLs and a sculpted bumper that enhances its premium look. At the rear, it features a full-width LED light bar, vertical taillights, chrome accents, and a roof spoiler for a refined finish.
Inside, the cabin exudes luxury with Nappa leather upholstery and zero-gravity second-row seats. It also includes a refrigerator with three modes — cooling (0–15°C), heating (35–50°C), and fresh-keeping (10°C) — along with ventilated and massage seats, plus 12.5 litres of storage space.
Power comes from a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) setup combining a 1.5-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine and dual electric motors, producing 442 PS and 642 Nm of torque via a four-speed DHT transmission. The all-wheel-drive MPV accelerates from 0–100 km/h in 5.7 seconds and reaches a top speed of 200 km/h.
Its 44.2 kWh battery delivers up to 170 km of pure electric range (NEDC) and up to 1,000 km when combined with the petrol engine. Charging from 30% to 80% takes just 26 minutes using DC fast charging, while a full charge via a 6.6 kW AC charger takes 6.5 hours.
For safety, the Wey G9 features a four-layer battery protection system designed to withstand rain, heat, and impacts, along with full-length side curtain airbags covering all three rows.
As of now, these are the details available for the MPV. Although the debut of the Wey G9 PHEV has been confirmed, the timeline for its arrival has yet to be revealed by the automaker.
