Stelato, the premium smart EV brand jointly developed by Huawei and BAIC BluePark, officially launched its third model — the G9 SUV — on August 13. Priced between 320,000 and 480,000 yuan, the vehicle offers flagship configurations including 780-830 km CLTC range, dual-motor 4WD with 530 kW peak output, and Huawei's latest intelligent driving system, surpassing 100,000 pre-orders within 10 hours.
Pre-Sales Pricing and Order Performance
On August 13, Stelato officially launched its third model and first SUV — the G9 — and simultaneously opened pre-orders. The vehicle is offered in three variants:
| Variant | Pre-Sale Price | Key Configuration Differences |
|---|---|---|
| Pure (Base) | 320,000 yuan | Base comfort features |
| Premium (Smart Driving) | 400,000 yuan | Huawei's latest intelligent driving system |
| Supreme (Flagship) | 480,000 yuan | Full flagship luxury configuration |
Pre-order benefits include a 9,999 yuan deposit unlocking 39,999 yuan worth of perks:
- Free premium paint color (worth 20,000 yuan)
- Free dual zero-gravity seats (worth 12,000 yuan)
- Vehicle care package (worth 7,999 yuan)
Market response has been exceptionally strong — pre-orders surpassed 100,000 units within 10 hours of opening, a rare achievement in the premium pure-electric SUV segment. For comparison, its HIMA sibling the AITO M9 achieved similar order records during its initial launch. The G9's market heat confirms the powerful appeal of Huawei HIMA Alliance brands in the high-end new-energy market.
The vehicle is expected to begin deliveries in late August 2026, becoming a significant new contender in the 400,000-yuan pure-electric SUV market.
Powertrain: 800V High-Voltage Platform + Dual-Motor 4WD
The Stelato G9 is built on the same platform as the Avatr 11, Avatr 12, and HIMA AITO M8, featuring an 800V high-voltage architecture that delivers flagship-level charging efficiency and power performance.
Key powertrain specifications:
| Parameter | Value |
|---|---|
| Dimensions | 5,060 × 2,000 × 1,485 mm |
| Wheelbase | 3,050 mm |
| Drag coefficient | 0.207Cd |
| Drive type | Dual-motor all-wheel drive |
| Peak power | 530 kW |
| CLTC range | 780-830 km |
| Front trunk volume | 8.2 L |
The 0.207Cd drag coefficient ranks at the top among D-class luxury SUVs, laying the aerodynamic foundation for ultra-long range. The dual-motor AWD system's 530 kW peak output ensures the power reserves expected of a flagship model.
Intelligent Driving: Huawei's Latest ADAS System
As a core member of Huawei's HIMA Alliance, the Stelato G9 is equipped with Huawei's latest intelligent driving system, featuring 31 intelligent driving sensors covering full scenarios including highways, urban roads, and parking.
For the intelligent cockpit, the G9 adopts Harmony Cockpit 5, featuring:
- 12.3-inch full LCD instrument cluster
- 15.6-inch central control screen
- 32-inch rear ceiling screen
Huawei's premium audio system, multi-screen connectivity, and vehicle-home integration complete the comprehensive intelligent cockpit experience.
Luxury Configuration: Full-Dimensional D-Class Flagship Expression
The Stelato G9 demonstrates the sincerity expected of a D-class flagship in its luxury appointments:
Chassis and Comfort:
- Four-wheel air suspension
- Intelligent CDC continuously adjustable damping system
- Magic-carpet-like ride quality
Space and Seating:
- Spacious interior enabled by the 3,050 mm ultra-long wheelbase
- Second-row zero-gravity seats
- MPV-style electric sliding doors (easier rear passenger entry/exit)
Design and Craftsmanship:
- 5,060 mm length combined with 2,000 mm width creates commanding presence
- Premium paint process (free during pre-order period)
This configuration combination enables the Stelato G9 to apply direct competitive pressure to traditional luxury brands' pure-electric offerings such as the BMW iX and Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV in the 400,000-500,000 yuan price band.
Brand Positioning and Strategic Significance
Stelato is the premium smart electric vehicle brand jointly developed by Huawei and BAIC BluePark. With three models now launched, the brand has established a product matrix covering sedans (S9) and SUVs (G9). The G9's naming continues BAIC's "9-series" flagship naming tradition within its NEV subsidiary brands (Arcfox αS9, Stelato S9, Stelato G9), reflecting unified flagship product planning within the BAIC system.
From a market positioning perspective, the Stelato G9 differentiates from the AITO M8/M9 — while the AITO models lean more toward family-oriented all-around SUVs, the G9 strengthens luxury and business attributes. The synergy between the two models will help Huawei's HIMA Alliance establish a more solid market position in the 350,000-500,000 yuan high-end pure-electric market.
For international buyers tracking China's high-end new-energy vehicle evolution, the Stelato G9 represents the latest achievement of Chinese brands challenging the luxury market through Huawei's intelligent technology empowerment.
