In terms of design, the Hong Qi HS6 PHEV retains classic family elements such as the mountain waterfall grille and ship-style body, with innovative designs including dragon-eye headlights and phoenix-tail taillights. From clay models to mass production, the vehicle underwent hundreds of wind resistance optimizations and crash simulations.

For safety performance, the Hong Qi HS6 PHEV features a 9H4M high-strength body to enhance rigidity and collision safety. The entire series is equipped with central airbags and dual pre-tensioned seat belts to protect the occupants. The “Diamond Fortress Battery System” anticipates new national standards’ “redundancy,” providing a reassuring user experience. The interior uses eco-friendly materials to ensure a formaldehyde, benzene, and odor-free environment.
The Hong Qi HS6 PHEV is equipped with “Honghu Hybrid” technology. Its two-wheel drive version has a WLTC lowest rated electric consumption of 5.1L/100km. The self-developed 1.5T engine achieves a thermal efficiency of 45.21% and is compatible with #92 gasoline, paired with a high-efficiency electric drive system allowing for 0-100 km/h acceleration in just 4.8 seconds. The power attenuation at both high and low battery levels is controlled within 5%. The vehicle also has 4C fast-charging capability, charging from 20% to 80% in just 15 minutes, with extreme cold adaptability, starting normally after being stationary at -40°C.
The Hong Qi HS6 PHEV is also equipped with the “Simnan Set of Driving Assistance,” focusing on user daily pain points in scenarios such as multi-scene parking, highways, and urban fast-road commutes, providing a comprehensive driving assistance experience. The production system involves stringent quality inspections at all stages, with a “digital twin car” generated simultaneously for each vehicle.
