Car manufacturer Hongqi, the ‘Chinese Rolls-Royce’, comes to Belgium | Car companies

The number of Chinese car brands on the Belgian market continues to increase. This time Hongqi takes the step. The Chinese luxury car manufacturer will launch the E-HS9 electric SUV through car distributor Hedin Automotive from October 30. Hedin Mobility Group from Sweden reports this in a press release.

The fully electric car starts at just under 70,000 euros and is available in various versions. The first deliveries should arrive this year. The car is considered the “flagship” of Hongqi, which markets various large sedans, limousines and SUVs in its own country.

Hongqi launched its first car on the market in 1958, according to the website of the manufacturer, a subsidiary of car group FAW. Over the years, the company has built cars for Chinese dignitaries, state leaders and foreign guests. Chinese President Xi Jinping is also driven around in a Hongqi. Since 2018, there has been a new commercial strategy that has increased sales in China and tapped into exports, it can be read.

Anyone who scans the Chinese spelling of Hongqi through the translation website will receive a ‘red flag’ as a result, which can also be read here and there on the world wide web.
