The first Luxeed V9 deliveries officially began on June 6, 2026, marking a fast-moving market debut for HIMA (Harmony Intelligent Mobility Alliance)’s newest flagship MPV. Just 21 days after its launch on May 15, the Luxeed V9 has already racked up more than 18,000 firm orders, validating the appetite for large, tech-laden seven-seaters in China’s premium segment. Priced from ¥389,800 to ¥519,800 (about $53,766 to $71,697 at 1 USD ≈ ¥7.25), the mid-to-large range-extended MPV positions itself as a dual-use chauffeur and family flagship.
Luxeed V9 Deliveries: First Owners Hit the Road
The Luxeed V9 is jointly developed by Huawei and Chery under the HIMA umbrella, sharing engineering DNA with the AITO M-series and Luxeed sedan/SUV lineup. Customer handovers started in flagship HIMA experience centers across Tier-1 Chinese cities on June 6, with order intake heavily skewed toward the higher Ultra+ trims. According to HIMA, the 18,000 firm-deposit orders accumulated in the first three weeks place the V9 ahead of every other Chinese premium MPV launched in 2026 to date, including direct competitors built around extended-range powertrains.
Design and Dimensions: Built for Presence
At 5,359 mm long, 2,009 mm wide and 1,859 mm tall with a 3,250 mm wheelbase, the V9 squarely targets buyers cross-shopping European luxury MPVs and large SUVs. A drag coefficient of 0.253 helps keep highway efficiency in check despite the bulk. The fascia uses a sealed grille, mega-pixel intelligent projection headlights with welcome carpet animation, and a 896-line LiDAR puck atop the roof for high-precision obstacle detection.
Power-sliding doors with gesture control automatically rotate the second-row captain chairs 45° outward when opened, a “welcome” trick that defines the V9’s chauffeur-grade pitch. Buyers can pick from four exterior shades — Aurora Purple, Deep Sea Blue, Snow White and Liquid Gold Black — and three interior themes: Velvet Purple, Splendor Apricot and Persimmon Orange, paired with white oak or walnut wood trim.
HarmonyOS Cabin and 35-Speaker HUAWEI SOUND
Inside, the V9 standardizes a triple-screen “Universe” layout: two 17.2-inch 3.4K screens for the driver and front passenger, plus a 12.3-inch instrument cluster, all running HarmonyOS Cockpit. Every V9 ships with the 25-speaker HUAWEI SOUND Premium audio system, while the Ultra+ flagship upgrades to a 35-speaker setup with crystal rotary controls.
Second-Row Zero-Gravity Captain Chairs
All trims include Nappa and semi-aniline leather, 123° dual zero-gravity second-row seats with massage, ventilation and graphene heating. Higher trims unlock 45° welcome, 90° lounge and 180° face-to-face modes, plus a full “big-bed mode” across all rows. Roof-mounted entertainment screen, in-car refrigerator, fold-out tray tables and electric-tint privacy glass round out the second-row experience, while the third row gets power adjustment and heating. Cargo space measures 892 L behind row three and 2,002 L with seats folded.
Huawei Qiankun ADS 5 and Safety Hardware
The Luxeed V9 is the first vehicle to receive Huawei Qiankun ADS 5, the latest version of the company’s end-to-end driver-assistance stack. The 896-line LiDAR feeds a sensor suite that supports city NCA (Navigate on Autopilot), highway NCA, parking and summoning. HIMA emphasizes a more human-like driving style for the V9, focused on smoother lane changes and braking. On the passive-safety side, 13 airbags are standard, including extended side curtains and full-coverage second-row airbags. The HarmonyOS ALPS Healthy Cabin adds active oxygen generation, sterilization and air purification.
Range-Extender Powertrain and Chassis
The Luxeed V9 uses Huawei’s Snow Owl intelligent range-extender system: a 1.5T gasoline generator with 44.5% peak thermal efficiency feeding a 53.4 kWh battery pack — among the larger packs in the Chinese REEV-MPV segment. The RWD variant returns 305 km of CLTC pure-electric range and 1,320 km combined, with a 227 kW system output and 6.8 L/100 km hybrid fuel use. The AWD variant offers 285 km EV / 1,280 km combined, 382 kW total output and 7.26 L/100 km hybrid fuel consumption, enough for a sub-7-second 0-100 km/h sprint in a 2.6-tonne MPV.
Underneath, every V9 rides on Huawei’s Tuling MPV-tuned platform with twin-chamber air suspension and continuously variable dampers, while standard rear-wheel steering trims the turning circle to 5.35 m. A 500 mm wading depth and active body-height control further reinforce the V9’s positioning as a do-anything luxury hauler. For buyers comparing high-end Chinese EVs at this price, the Hyptec S600 and the 2026 Chery Exeed ES provide useful context on how rival domestic flagships stack up on tech and pricing.
