Silver Next Generation L7 to be Equipped with EM-i Hybrid System and Scheduled for 2025 Release
A recent series of images showcasing the new Silver Next Generation L7 have been made available, following previous reports indicating that the upcoming car will feature the latest EM-i hybrid plug-in system. The car is expected to be formally launched in 2025.
The exterior design of the new car is primarily focused on upgrades to its front face, encompassing adjustments such as grille and bumper covers. A newly released "no fake" image displays an advanced grille design with a bold aesthetic, which may be from an early testing version, pending official confirmation by the manufacturer. Meanwhile, the rear and side sections continue their designs without changes.
The interior remains unchanged, maintaining its configuration of 10.25-inch instrument panel, 13.2-inch central screen, and 16.2-inch secondary display console as before. In terms of powertrain, the new car is rumored to come equipped with the latest EM-i plug-in hybrid system referencing Silver Starship 7's EM-I, consisting of a 1.5-liter engine combined with an 218-horsepower electric motor, boasting CLTC mode fuel economy at only 3.75L/100km. Additional information on the car is expected to be disclosed in future updates.
