Chery has officially launched its new mid-to-large sedan, the Fulwin A9L Glory (AWD), priced between 181,900 and 236,900 yuan (approximately $25,500 to $33,200 USD). This model represents Chery’s top offering under the Fulwin brand and is designed for both domestic and international markets, including export as the Exeed ES7. The A9L prioritizes range, performance, and advanced technology in a competitive segment.
Powertrain and Performance
The Fulwin A9L is powered by Chery’s Kunpeng Super Hybrid CDM 6.0 system, a plug-in hybrid combining a 1.5T engine with an electric motor. The powertrain delivers a combined output of 275 kW (374 hp) and 530 Nm of torque. The vehicle features a Kunpeng square blade battery with a capacity of 33.67 kWh, providing a CLTC-rated pure electric range of 260 km and a combined range exceeding 2,500 km. This extended range positions the A9L as a strong competitor in the growing hybrid market.
Design and Aerodynamics
The A9L maintains a modern aesthetic with a closed front grille and a full-width LED light strip. Vertical air vents and a trapezoidal heat dissipation opening add to the aggressive front design. The vehicle’s side profile is sleek, featuring hidden door handles that contribute to a drag coefficient of 0.23 Cd. The rear mirrors the front’s sophistication with a full-width taillight cluster and chrome trim.
The dimensions of the Fulwin A9L are 5,018 mm in length, 1,965 mm in width, and 1,500 mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3,000 mm. These dimensions place the A9L squarely in the mid-to-large sedan category, offering ample cabin space.
Interior and Technology
The interior of the Fulwin A9L prioritizes luxury and comfort. A full LCD instrument panel and a two-tone, two-spoke multi-function steering wheel create a modern cockpit. A floating central multimedia touchscreen dominates the centre console, complemented by physical function buttons, a wireless charging pad, and dual cup holders.
Rear passengers benefit from dedicated seat control panels offering ventilation, heating, and massage functions. The vehicle also incorporates advanced driver-assistance systems, including the Falcon 500 and Falcon 700 suites.
