Great Wall Motor (GWM) is developing a high-performance hybrid supercar scheduled for a 2027 market release. Company chairman Wei Jianjun has showcased the prototype during testing at a track in Baoding, where it is being benchmarked against a Ferrari SF90.
While the GWM model remains under development, the current prototype phase indicates that the Ferrari holds an advantage in handling, acceleration response, and engine sound. The engineering team is refining these areas before the vehicle reaches production.
Technical Specifications
- Engine: 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 paired with a plug-in hybrid system.
- Platform: Built on the GWM GF architecture featuring a carbon-fiber monocoque chassis.
- Performance Targets: The vehicle is expected to achieve a combined output exceeding 1,200 horsepower, with a 0-100 km/h time of 2.5 seconds or less and a top speed surpassing 350 km/h.
A formal debut for the vehicle is expected before the end of 2026. GWM intends to produce both road-legal and GT3 racing versions of the car.
