June 16, the WEY Gao Shan 7 SUV version officially launched, limited-time exclusive price 270,800 yuan. Besides the highly competitive price, the WEY Gao Shan 7 SUV version told us with facts: a car can handle daily life and far-off destinations.

Four days ago, Great Wall Motor Chairman Wei Jianjun posted a video announcing the naming of this car: Based on suggestions from 7,875 netizens, the Gao Shan 7 with a raised chassis of 30 millimeters is called the Gao Shan 7 SUV version.

The birth process of this car, in the current Chinese automotive market, is almost considered an anomaly. It was not decided by engineers working in isolation or making snap judgments, but built upon nearly 8,000 pieces of user feedback.

Users said the chassis was too low, so Great Wall raised the chassis from 155 mm to 185 mm.

Users said they wanted better passability, so Great Wall built something with an MPV body and SUV legs.

Users said they hoped for more space, so Great Wall increased the vehicle length by 99 mm and the width by 45 mm.

Officially it is called a new species of family travel. But the question arises: how exactly is this product, which wants both, actually realized?

I. The MPV Foundation Supports First-Class Cabin Experience

Before talking about comfort, let's look at a set of data:

WEY Gao Shan series cumulative sales from July to December 2025 reached 49,826 units, taking the half-year sales champion title in the national MPV market, surpassing competitors like Toyota Sienna.

6,707 units sold in January 2026, 4,369 units in February, reclaiming the new energy MPV sales champion.

These numbers show one thing: users recognize the foundation of this car.

But the deeper reason users accept it is that the connotation of family travel is being redefined — weekend camping, nearby self-driving, family long-distance travel, have changed from occasional activities to daily expectations.

A car is no longer just a tool to take family from point A to point B, but a space carrying the lifestyle of the whole family. Some owners drove WEY Gao Shan to Paris, France. Some users drove it along the Sichuan-Tibet line. The trunk was packed with camping gear, the third row sat with children and elderly.

When an MPV starts being used by owners as the main model for long-distance self-driving and outdoor exploration, its need for passability is no longer adding flowers on embroidery, but a rigid demand. This is the most fundamental logic behind the birth of the Gao Shan 7 SUV version.

The comfort of the Gao Shan 7 SUV version must be viewed from two dimensions: is the foundation good, is the configuration top-notch.

The foundation is the MPV foundation. Occupant cabin net space length 2,867 mm, interior height 1,277 mm. 2+2+3 seven-seat layout, flat floor design, second and third row shared rail design — 1,845 mm ultra-long slide rail, space adjustment is extremely flexible. These MPV signature skills are fully retained in the SUV version.

In terms of configuration, the SUV version adds significantly on the basis of the current model. Body width increased from 1,960 mm to 2,005 mm, rear shoulder space improved practically. The whole car uses Nappa leather wrapped seats, first and second rows standard equipped with heating, ventilation, driver enjoys 10-point massage.

Second row standard equipped with independent aviation seats with movable armrests, support ventilation, heating, equipped with double-sided folding tables and two-way electric leg rests; users can also opt for double zero-gravity seats. Third row also equipped with nearly 1.3 meters wide luxury shared big sofa, seat cushion depth 512 mm.

In terms of smart cockpit, equipped with Coffee OS 3 Super Smart Cockpit, front row dual 15.6-inch connected screens + rear row 17.3-inch independent entertainment screen. Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295 smart cockpit chip, configuration pulled to top. Assisted driving equipped with Coffee Pilot 3 system, supports no-breakpoint assisted driving from parking spot to parking spot, AEB emergency braking supports up to 120km/h high-speed stop.

The true test of comfort is not on the spec sheet, but on chassis tuning. Gao Shan 7 SUV version chassis raised by 30 mm, center of gravity moved up, how to tune the suspension? Great Wall's solution is: All series standard equipped with all-aluminum suspension system, simultaneously shock absorbers added exclusive recovery springs.

More importantly, this chassis upgrade is not simply raising the body height, but achieved through front subframe downshift, rear axle spring support upshift, steering tie rod angle adjustment and other structural rearrangements. The whole vehicle also lasted 5 months for full-scenario actual testing verification, over 10 rounds of fine adaptation tuning. Multiple test drivers feedback, although chassis raised, but at high speed changing lanes and cornering, body posture control stable, no obvious floatiness appeared due to height increase.

Jin Gang Circuit actual test data shows, Moose test score reached 66.8km/h, slalom average speed 63.5km/h, both are leading level among same-class MPVs.

II. Why Can Large Space and High Passability Be Compatible?

The core product logic that allows this car to achieve large space and high passability is hidden in the body data: 5149x2005x1925mm and 185mm.

The former is body dimensions, compared to current Gao Shan 7, vehicle length increased 99 mm, vehicle width increased 45 mm, vehicle height increased 25 mm. What is the concept of 5,149 mm vehicle length? Li Auto L9 is 5,218 mm, AITO M7 is 5,020 mm. Gao Shan 7 SUV version stuck in the middle, bigger than M7 by one loop, smaller than L9 by one loop. 2,005 mm vehicle width, is leading in the same class.

The latter is minimum ground clearance 185 mm. Traditional MPV ground clearance generally between 120 to 155 mm, Toyota Sienna about 135mm, Denza D9 about 140mm. Gao Shan 7 SUV version from 155 mm improved to 185 mm, directly crossed into the level of mainstream city SUVs.

185mm ground clearance brings not only changes in parameters, it solves the most real last kilometer problem of a family car.

Weekend camping, dare you walk that gravel road at the camp entrance? Nearby self-driving, can you pass that muddy slope at the farm hotel entrance? Go to a homestay in the mountains, that village road washed uneven by rain, turn back home or harden your stomach and drive forward?

These scenarios, exactly are the embarrassment traditional MPV users encounter most often: not that they cannot go, but dare not go. Because bottoming out once, the time and cost of car repair is enough to ruin the good mood of a whole trip.

And the true value of 185mm lies here. Actual testing shows, this car in Pujiang gravel road, Ganzi Litang unhardened road section and other scenarios did not bottom out.

Some owners stated: before driving Gao Shan 7, had to detour these roads, now dare to engage D gear and drive directly. After ground clearance increased 30mm, vehicle can pass 4 more unpaved road sections, including mud pits and farm hotel entrance slopes, while old models once needed tow truck rescue at same positions. It is not to let you go deep off-roading, but to let those weekend destinations not dared to go before, now dare to go.

In terms of power, Gao Shan 7 SUV version standard equipped Hi4 Performance Smart 4WD Electric Hybrid technology, uses hybrid parallel architecture + 4-gear transmission + front/rear axle dual motors. System power 337kW, peak torque 644N·m, 0-100 acceleration 5.7 seconds.

4WD logic optimized for unpaved roads, low speed torque response faster. In terms of range, equipped with 44.28kWh battery, WLTC pure electric range 172km, CLTC pure electric range 206km, combined range over 1,100 kilometers. Daily commute around 40km families, basically can drive as pure electric car, charging once a week covers weekday travel needs; weekend family travel combined range over 1,000km, no need to frequently find charging piles.

What Gao Shan 7 SUV version wants to do is let "go at a whim" no longer be stopped by a bad road, turn family travel from making do to being particular, let the vehicle evolve from a pure travel tool to a partner exploring life.

III. WEY Is Becoming the Definition of Chinese Family Travel Methods

WEY Gao Shan series has consecutive 7 months holding new energy MPV sales champion title, took MPV sales champion in 26 provincial capital cities. In this new energy MPV track, Gao Shan is already a name that cannot be bypassed.

Over 100,000 families chose it, among which 78% are personal family users. This car is not only recognized domestically, also performs well in overseas markets like Thailand, Malaysia, relying on solid home product quality to go global. As the 2026 CCTV Spring Festival Gala New Media designated vehicle, WEY Gao Shan obtained dual recognition from consumers and national stage.

Why can it achieve this? Core lies in WEY finding a differentiated path: no longer obsessed with competing on price, screen count or sofa softness with competitors, but focus attention on a more essential question: what exactly are the user's family travel scenarios?

The answer is diverse. Monday to Friday is city commuting, picking up and dropping off children, weekend is nearby camping, surrounding self-driving, long holidays are cross-province long travel, family outing. One car to cover all scenarios, it cannot just be configuration stacking, must simultaneously possess MPV space comfort and SUV scenario adaptability. This is the answer given by WEY Gao Shan 7 SUV version, also the unique value of the WEY brand as a whole in the current market.

Great Wall Motor's investment in WEY is also continuously increasing. January 2026, Great Wall launched the world's first native AI full power automotive platform — Gui Yuan Platform, compatible with five major power forms, showing deep technical reserves.

At the same time, WEY is accelerating global layout. V9X will land Eurasia and Middle East markets within the year, competing with traditional million-level luxury cars on the same stage. 2026 Great Wall Motor export target 600,000 units, WEY as a premium brand, will be the core responsibility for overseas high-value models, becoming an important force for Chinese car brands to break upwards.

Gao Shan 7 SUV version was born in such a context. It is a car that listens to advice, 7,875 netizens said chassis low, it precisely raised 30 mm, with actual action responded to user's real needs.

It is a boundary-expanding car, using MPV foundation grafting SUV attributes, opening up a brand new niche market, satisfying those family users who want both large space and high passability.

It is more a bridging car, above has V9X setting brand ceiling, below has Lanshan consolidating basic market, Gao Shan 7 SUV version tears another hole in 300,000 price bracket market. Limited-time exclusive price starting 270,800 yuan, precisely anchoring those wanting MPV space and comfort, also wanting SUV passability, but budget cannot reach higher price pragmatic family users, giving more people opportunity to own an all-around family car.

One car, can both fit whole family comfort, can also fit whole family distance. Gao Shan 7 SUV version lets family travel from making do to being particular. No longer need to sacrifice space for passability, no longer need to give up distance for comfort. It is turning no limits into reality within reach of every family.

In the current Chinese automotive industry where homogenization is serious, enterprises willing to spend 5 months time, do over 10 rounds of tuning, listen to 7,875 user opinions to build a car, are not many. Gao Shan 7 SUV version is not a universal solution, but might be one of the most worth considering options in this price range.

隨著二季度末二代刀片電池產能持續釋放，疊加騰勢 N8L、方程豹鎦 7 純電版、海獅 05、夏 L 等多款新車陸續登陸市場，業內普遍預判比亞迪 6 月全品牌銷量有望突破 40 萬輛。依托低端走量鎖份額、高端提利潤、海外衝增量、智能化提產品力的四維發展邏輯，在國內新能源淘汰賽加劇的當下，比亞迪全品類佈局優勢持續放大，坐穩國內新能源龍頭，加速向著全球頭部車企穩步邁進。

本月初，丰田自动织机正式从东京和名古屋证券交易所退市，成为丰田不动产直接控股的子公司。而丰田不动产是丰田家族的非上市核心平台，其董事长正是丰田章男。

丰田自动织机退市通知

经过近一年的谈判运作，丰田家族以每股20600日元的最终报价完成收购，收购总额为5.9万亿日元（折合人民币约2500亿元）。这笔交易创下日本企业并购史的规模之最。

多年来，丰田自动织机一直作为丰田汽车的零部件供应商，生产纺织机械、叉车、并组装部分车型，包括热销全球的RAV4。从体量上看，尽管丰田自动织机的利润与营收仅为丰田汽车的一小部分，但这家名不见经传的公司无论在血统、资本纽带上还是其在供应链上的位置，都有着不容忽视的影响力。

资料显示，1926年，丰田佐吉创立丰田自动织机，生产织布机以满足日本工业化浪潮下纺织业的旺盛需求；1933年，丰田自动织机内部设立汽车事业部，由其子丰田喜一郎负责；1937年，汽车业务独立拆分，丰田汽车正式成立。

丰田佐吉

如今，丰田自动织机为丰田生产发动机缸体、空调压缩机、氢燃料电池部件。纺织机械的精密制造技术可迁移至汽车零部件与燃料电池领域，使其成为丰田电动化及氢能转型的关键环节。

丰田自动织机选择在这样一个时间点退市合并，一方面是东京证券交易所（TSE）在推进治理改革，严厉督促各大蓝筹企业必须在今年加速清理降低资本效率的交叉持股；另一方面，则是丰田章男在退出日常经营之后，为家族后续的权力交接做准备。

尽管丰田发言人否认丰田章男试图加强对丰田集团的控制，表示“丰田章男先生投资的目的，是以长期资本提供者的身份支持这一架构，而非对管理层施加控制。”但在外界看来， 私有化丰田织机是巩固其影响力，试图让丰田章男及其家族继续掌控部分资产。

驻香港的日本股市独立分析师特拉维斯・伦迪谈到这笔收购案时表示：“这里面大有文章，丰田章男会为丰田家族创造价值。”伦迪称，丰田章男在特殊目的公司中的持股以及交易结构，将赋予其巨大控制权，并可能根据后续安排让家族变得“极其富有”。

今年4月，丰田汽车新任社长从佐藤恒治换成了丰田章男的核心盟友兼前秘书近健太（Kenta Kon），同时，丰田章男37岁的儿子丰田大辅（Daisuke Toyoda）正在丰田旗下未来移动出行及智能化技术研发公司Woven by Toyota担任高级副总裁，深度主导丰田在软件定义汽车、自动驾驶及智慧城市领域的转型，他被外界视为丰田未来的社长候选人。即便未能如愿，丰田家族仍希望确保在丰田汽车的未来中拥有话语权。

丰田大辅

对于丰田章男而言，无论是确保近健太的稳健辅佐，还是为丰田大辅未来的接班做铺垫，完成对丰田自动织机的巨额收购都是关键一步，以奠定其最终遗产。这或许也是丰田章男自卸任日常经营、担任董事长以来，一直在思考的问题。

交叉持股的掣肘

长久以来，丰田的权力版图中一直存在着一种极为微妙的反向寄生关系。此前，丰田汽车是丰田自动织机的“子公司”，历经近百年发展，汽车业务成长为全球第一大车企，体量、营收、影响力彻底反超母体，形成罕见的子强母弱、身份倒置格局。

从股权本源来看，私有化之前的丰田自动织机与丰田汽车形成了稳固的双向交叉持股结构：丰田汽车持有丰田自动织机约24%股份，是其最大的单一股东；丰田自动织机反向持有丰田汽车约9%的股份，是丰田汽车第一大非信托法人股东。

丰田集团复杂的交叉持股结构

这种股权结构让丰田自动织机与丰田汽车交叉制衡、双向牵制、权责模糊。两者同为上市公司，均拥有独立股东利益诉求，彼此之间存在多方利益牵制与博弈。

丰田自动织机在完成收购之前，除了有丰田汽车及电装、爱信等丰田系核心关联企业持股，还有包括华尔街激进对冲基金埃利奥特（Elliott Investment Management）在内的外部独立股东，持股比例约为25%。

这些外部股东可以通过丰田自动织机反向影响丰田汽车战略决策，职业经理人团队也可以依托上市治理规则与外部股东支持，拥有极大的经营与路线话语权，最终令整个集团决策效率低下，也让丰田家族在决策过程中受到限制。

事实上，埃利奥特正是本次收购案中与丰田集团博弈的关键角色。

丰田家族最初的私有化要约价格为每股16300日元，按当时汇率折合总对价约4.7万亿日元。这个价格在当时低于丰田自动织机的公开市场收盘价，外部股东认为丰田严重低估了自动织机的资产价值。

埃利奥特计算，仅丰田自动织机持有的丰田汽车股份，连同其持有的电装、爱信等股份，资产总价值一度几乎等同于丰田自动织机自身的总市值，税后清算价值就高达5万亿日元。按照丰田最初给的估值，甚至连这些股票的价值都不够，相当于把织机庞大的实体叉车业务“白送”给了丰田家族。这家对冲基金声称，丰田直接从中小股东手里偷走了2.2万亿日元的价值。

为此，埃利奥特在公开市场暗中疯狂吸筹，一度手握丰田自动织机7.1%的股份，成为该公司的最大独立外部股东。

不仅如此，埃利奥特还在公开报告中指出，正是因为丰田内部这种封闭、不透明的交叉持股结构，才导致了公司治理的彻底失效。他们警告东证所和日本经济产业省（METI），如果任由丰田以如此不公的价格强行私有化，将是对日本企业治理改革的重大羞辱。这给极度看重国际声誉的丰田章男带来了巨大的政治压力。

丰田集团不得不在随后的博弈中两次加价，多掏了一万多亿日元，才促使这些外部股东接受要约离场。

家族企业的权力焦虑

从被迫下台到“大政奉还”

付出高达5.9万亿日元的沉重代价后，这场博弈最终为丰田家族换来了一个更加平稳的底层控制权。

随着丰田自动织机告别公开市场，延续数十年的双向交叉持股格局彻底斩断。丰田家族重构了自身、丰田自动织机、丰田汽车与丰田集团的四层权力关系，也终结了职业经理人、外部资本对集团核心战略的制衡能力，为丰田下一个百年的技术路线、治理模式与家族传承牢牢锁定主动权。

斯坦福法学院教授柯蒂斯・米尔豪普特（Curtis Milhaupt）指出，在新架构下，有丰田家族掌控的平台可以几乎不需要公开披露或审批，就能对上市的丰田汽车施加底层影响。

按照市场分析人士的推演，私有化重组完成后的丰田自动织机将逐步出售其持有的丰田汽车股份，甚至可能分拆纺织和叉车等传统实体业务，将剩余的主体纯粹转变为一个非公开的纯粹控股公司。尽管丰田发言人目前否认了这一转型计划，但底层的资本架构已经搭建完毕。

回顾丰田家族近百年的发展史，这种对集团的绝对掌控并非与生俱来，其中经历数次起落，也有过被迫放权、权力旁落，被资本和外姓人支配的阴影。

战后经济萧条期，丰田汽车陷入破产边缘并爆发大规模工人罢工。为了获得银行的贷款和资金援助，债权银行要求丰田进行彻底的重组，包括将销售部门与制造部门分离，并要求管理层承担责任。丰田喜一郎被迫引咎辞职，由石田退三接任总经理以重组丰田。两年后丰田喜一郎因脑溢血猝逝。

上世纪90年代到21世纪初，丰田喜一郎的次子丰田达郎因病突然卸任社长，而丰田章男当时资历尚浅，丰田汽车转而由以奥田硕为代表的非家族高管执掌。奥田硕大力推进全球化产能布局，主导普锐斯混动技术落地，奠定丰田全球混动霸主地位。他曾公开直言“任人唯亲在丰田未来没有位置”，试图削弱家族色彩，并将年轻的丰田章男边缘化。

90年代的职业经理人时期

职业经理人主导的时代，确实推动了丰田的全球化腾飞，但也埋下致命隐患：他们更侧重短期市场业绩、跟风行业热点，忽视家族坚守的长期技术布局；同时依托上市治理规则与交叉持股体系，逐步壮大自身派系力量，形成独立于家族的经营圈层，家族对集团技术路线、核心战略的话语权持续弱化。

这一阶段，丰田家族成员全面退出一线经营，仅保留名义上的荣誉地位，直接持股比例持续稀释，丰田章男个人持股至今不足0.2%，家族权力跌至百年低谷。

直到2008 年雷曼兄弟危机爆发，丰田遭遇历史性巨亏。在舆论和集团内部对职业经理人失去信心、高呼“让创始人家族回归”的声浪中，53 岁的丰田章男正式接任社长。日本媒体普遍将此形容为“大政奉还”。

重回权力巅峰的丰田章男开启了长达二十余年的家族权力复兴之路。他以“传承丰田生产方式、坚守长期技术主义”为核心，逐步收拢权力，之后也成为集团内不折不扣的“造王者”。尽管丰田发言人表示丰田章男未参与更换社长的决定，但丰田章男之后的两任社长皆为其嫡系盟友。

作为一个不断向现代化靠拢的企业，丰田汽车的官方公关辞令一再强调，高管始终基于“知人善任”而非接班计划。但正如官方媒体《丰田时报》在专访中所写的那样：丰田章男其实是漫长家族遗产的延续。

这场千亿人民币的收购案，既是追溯也是展望，它奠定的是丰田家族对百年帝国的权力基台。无论未来坐在社长椅子上的人姓什么，这个庞大企业的底层钥匙，已经赶在百年大庆之前，被安全地送回了丰田汽车最初诞生的那个地方。

兄弟姐妹們，今日講一個出海嘅大新聞——唔係賣車，係賣「司機」。6 月 2 號，文遠知行同 Uber 聯合宣佈咗一件事：計劃喺西班牙馬德里推出該國首個商業化 Robotaxi 試點服務。意思就係：西班牙人好快就可以用 Uber 叫到一台冇司機嘅出租車。呢次係文遠知行同 Uber 第一次一齊進入歐洲市場。馬德里亦成為文遠知行 Robotaxi 駛入嘅全球第十二個城市。

官方消息話，喺馬德里自治區政府嘅支持下，呢項服務今年內就會正式啟動。到嗰陣，馬德里嘅朋友哋打開 Uber App，就有一鍵呼叫文遠知行嘅 Robotaxi。同叫普通網約車一樣，分別係嚟嘅車冇駕駛員——至少喺初期，仲係有分別嘅。運營初期，車入面會配備經過專業培訓嘅安全員，終究係剛上線，穩妥第一。

文遠知行呢間公司，你可能聽過，也可能冇聽過。簡單介紹下：2017 年成立，一直埋頭搞 Robotaxi 技術研發同商業化。而家佢嘅 Robotaxi 已經覆蓋咗廣州、北京、新加坡、阿布達比、迪拜、利雅得、蘇黎世……加埋而家嘅馬德里，一共 12 個城市。西班牙亦係文遠知行進入嘅第五個歐洲市場——之前已經入咗瑞士、法國、比利時、斯洛伐克。按照文遠知行同 Uber 喺 2025 年 5 月達成嘅規劃，佢哋要喺五年內新增 15 個國際城市部署 Robotaxi 服務，全球部署數萬輛 Robotaxi。隨著馬德里落地，目前已經完成咗 4 個城市嘅佈局，仲有 11 個會喺 2030 年前陸續覆蓋。

講真嘅，中國自動駕駛公司出海唔係頭一回，但中國技術 + 全球出行平台 + 歐洲市場呢個組合，定係好有意思。馬德里係歐洲最具商業潛力嘅 Robotaxi 市場之一，人口多、出行需求大，當地政策都好友善。喺呢個市場站穩腳根，對文遠知行嚟講係個唔小嘅里程碑。對 Uber 嚟講，引進 Robotaxi 都係為咗降低成本——終究司機唔使發人工。對馬德里市民嚟講，以後打車可能更平。

Folks, today let's talk about big news on going global—not selling cars, but selling "drivers". On June 2, WeRide and Uber jointly announced a plan: to launch the country's first commercial Robotaxi pilot service in Madrid, Spain. In other words: Spanish residents will soon be able to hail a driverless taxi via Uber. This is the first time WeRide and Uber are partnering to enter the European market. Madrid also becomes the 12th city globally where WeRide's Robotaxi arrives.

According to official news, with the support of the Madrid regional government, this service will officially launch within this year. At that time, friends in Madrid can open the Uber App and call WeRide's Robotaxi with one click. It's just like calling an ordinary ride-hailing service, the difference is the arriving car has no driver—at least initially, there is still a difference. In the initial operation phase, a professionally trained safety monitor will be on board, as it's just launched, safety comes first.

This company, WeRide, you might have heard of it, or you might not. A brief introduction: Established in 2017, it has been dedicated to Robotaxi technology R&D and commercialization. Currently, its Robotaxis cover Guangzhou, Beijing, Singapore, Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Riyadh, Zurich... plus Madrid now, totaling 12 cities. Spain is also the 5th European market WeRide has entered—previously entered Switzerland, France, Belgium, Slovakia. According to the plan agreed by WeRide and Uber in May 2025, they plan to deploy Robotaxi services in 15 new international cities within five years, deploying tens of thousands of Robotaxis globally. With the Madrid launch, the deployment in 4 cities has been completed, and 11 more will be covered successively before 2030.

To be honest, it's not the first time Chinese autonomous driving companies are going global, but the combination of Chinese technology + global mobility platform + European market is quite interesting. Madrid is one of the European Robotaxi markets with the most commercial potential, with a large population, high travel demand, and friendly local policies. Being able to take root in this market is a significant milestone for WeRide. For Uber, introducing Robotaxis is also a way to reduce costs—after all, drivers don't need salaries. For Madrid residents, hailing a taxi might be cheaper in the future.
