The much-anticipated high-end Chinese automotive brand; Hongqi, was officially launched recently by Zayani Motors, the exclusive distributor of Hongqi in the Kingdom of Bahrain.
A special ceremony was held on March 22, 2022, under the patronage of His Excellency Mr. Zayed bin Rashid Alzayani, Minister of Industry, Commerce and Tourism, to unveil the new brand and to officially open Hongqi showroom in Ma’ameer.
Born in 1958, Hongqi is a Chinese luxury car marque owned by the automaker FAW Car Company, and a subsidiary of FAW Group. The premium brand raises the bar high in the global market of luxury cars, as it represents the pride of the Chinese deluxe automotive industry, and it is known to be the choice of state leaders and prominent foreign guests.
Following the official launch in the Kingdom, four models of Hongqi are available now in the Bahraini market, out of which there are two SUVs; HS5 and HS7, as well as two sedans; H5, and H9, which are all characterised by its elegant look and design, innovative technology, superb performance and exceptional experience that will certainly reshape the scene of luxury cars in the Kingdom.
Available in 2WD and 4WD, the HS5 sets an example for futuristic luxury compact SUVs, with a sleek design that is backed with a rigorous persona, a modern cabin that ensures the driver and passengers enjoy a unique sense of luxury, and cutting-edge safety features.
The HS7 comes with professional off-road performance, powered by the TCS all-wheel power control technology, which is exclusively customised by Bosch. It is equipped with the new generation of 8-speed AMT transmission for comfortable driving experience and excellent fuel economy. However, there is no compromise on the luxurious interior of the car, which is finished with world-class Nappa leather and solid wood decoration for the seats, chamois leather for roof liner, and plenty of state-of-the-art deluxe features that place it as a pioneer in its class.
As for the H5, the attractive look of the car is captivating, reflecting the high-end class of the brand. The design of the headlamps is inspired by an eagle spreading its wings, which shows dynamic and distinguished characters, while the premium interior is personified by simplicity and intelligence with generous leg and head room for the driver and passengers alike, and modern features provides maximum seating comfort.
Meanwhile, the H9 is filled with exclusive features, such as a full-length panoramic roof, seat heating and cooling in the front and back rows, and an innovative infotainment system, in addition to plenty of safety features such as driver attention monitoring, autonomous braking, lane departure alert, blind spots monitoring and other advanced safety systems, making it an epitome in its class of luxury cars.
