The Luxeed R7 (Chinese: 智界R7; pinyin: Zhìjiè R7) is a battery electric and range extender mid-size crossover SUV produced by Chinese automobile manufacturer Luxeed, a premium EV brand of Chery in collaboration with HIMA. Production of the vehicle started in 2024. The Luxeed R7 is a sister model with Exeed Sterra ET which are similar in size and share the same platform.
Overview
[edit]
Less than a year after the June 2024 inauguration of the new brand Luxeed from HIMA, the automotive branch of the technology giant Huawei, a second model was presented, complementing the portfolio previously created by the large, higher-class S7 sedan.
The R7 took the form of a large coupe SUV, which extensively reproduced the styling features of the first product of the Chinese brand.[1] The body has gained rounded wheel arches, a gently sloping roofline with a clearly marked rear spoiler line, and a large, wide light blend connecting the oval lamps. The front fascia is dominated by large headlights, cut at the lower edge, and other characteristic details include retractable door handles, a radar segment at the edge of the windshield and a glass roof.[2]
The passenger cabin has a light tone, with a characteristic oval steering wheel and high-mounted 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster protruding towards the windshield. At the center of the dashboard there is a 15.6-inch touchscreen infotainment system using Huawei's HarmonyOS software and working with the Huawei Sound system.[3][4]
2025 facelift
[edit]On August 1st, 2025, photos of the facelifted R7 were officially revealed by Luxeed, with the R7 receiving new headlights and also debuts the new logo of the Luxeed brand. Alongside the teasers for the facelift is a new Aurora Green color.[5]
Specifications
[edit]The R7 has a fully electric drivetrain, which is equipped with one or two motors. The base variant has a 82kWh battery pack paired with a 288 horsepower (215 kW; 292 PS) rear motor and a CLTC range rating of 667 kilometres (414 mi), while the top version has a 100kWh pack paired with a 489 horsepower (365 kW; 496 PS) dual-motor all-wheel drive system with 855 kilometres (531 mi) of range. It uses an 800V electrical architecture, and is equipped with a fast charging system.
