Mocha is different from latte and cappuccino. It has a distinct taste and personality, and is an interpretation of a positive and upward life attitude. In a busy and tedious workplace, “coffee” is what keeps “the working class” going. And on the road to success in life, how can one be without an SUV with unique personality as a companion?

“Mocha coffee” empowerment, not limited to people

In addition to the busy “working class”, WEY, which has always been close to users, embraces users and is full of creativity, has also received the “gift” of “coffee”. In 2020, Great Wall Motors launched its intelligent vehicle system for future travel, the “Coffee Intelligence” platform, which condensed the 30-year technological research and development achievements of Great Wall Motors, covering intelligent cockpit, intelligent driving, new electronic and electrical architecture, and for the first time proposed the research and development concept of “dual intelligence fusion” and the intelligent three core variables of “interaction + ecology + AI”. It can actively learn and carry out independent iterative evolution through AI, big data, and FOTA, and together with the “Lemon Platform” and “Tank Platform” it has become the three major technology platforms under Great Wall, representing Great Wall’s new car-making concept. And the WEY Mocha became the first “experience officer” of the “Coffee Platform”.

On May 21st, based on the “Coffee Intelligence” platform, the first new vehicle model empowered by the WEY Mocha was launched, with a total of 5 models and an official guide price of 175,800 to 218,800 yuan. In addition, the laser radar premium edition model was also unveiled at the press conference, and is expected to be launched in the third quarter. At the press conference, accompanied by the dynamic and melodious piano performed by the world-class piano master Li Yundi, the WEY Mocha made a stunning debut in the form of “automatic driving”. What kind of energy makes such a “mocha car”?

“Mocha driving” understands human hearts

In Doraemon’s opinion, intelligent driving has always been the essence of intelligent cars, and the WEY Mocha is the first car of its class with L3 level redundant automatic driving, with a total of six systems, including perception redundancy, controller redundancy, brake redundancy, architecture redundancy, power redundancy and steering redundancy, which are comprehensively optimized. After encountering errors or problems, the spare parts respond in a timely manner, minimizing the risk of losing control.

In the Chinese automobile market, it is not uncommon to see intelligent cars equipped with L2 level assisted driving. However, the essential difference between L2 and L3 is a significant improvement from assisted driving to semi-automatic driving. This is thanks to WEY Mocha’s technical advancements, including the vehicle-level, solid-state laser radar and the Qualcomm 8155 chip with one second and 3.6 million calculations per second (Tesla’s HW3.0 chip has 1.44 million calculations per second).

Can you imagine the comfort of automatic recognition and shifting on/off of highway lanes, automatic following, automatic cruising, automatic lane-changing and overtaking at high speeds? Can you imagine the joy of autonomously planned parking routes in a parking lot? WEY Mocha can provide you with all of these experiences. Liberating your hands and being yourself again, ah~ it’s amazing.

A perfect intelligent car should have an intelligent cockpit. WEY Mocha is equipped with the flagship Qualcomm 8155 cockpit chip, which has an 8-core processor, 2.1GHz main frequency, 12GB of memory and 64GB of storage space, enabling seamless 720° perception inside and outside the car. The AR-HUD head-up display system is also a major highlight, integrating real-time vehicle information with the current road conditions through technical image processing, providing an excellent driving experience that combines portability and technological innovation.

In addition, the car also features an ecological physical monitoring system, AI intelligent facial recognition, AI intelligent voice assistant, panoramic online navigation and other functions, which can monitor the driver’s fatigue and distraction in real-time, and automatically switch to the appropriate driving mode, providing a super user-friendly design.

What’s more, WEY Mocha also has a gesture control function that can start, stop, move forward, and reverse the car through specific gestures. You can move the car without even getting on it. Having a car and not driving it is just for fun, ah~ it’s amazing.

And how about WEY Mocha’s power?Is WEY Mocha a pure electric vehicle? Actually not. WEY Mocha is a fuel-efficient vehicle that is smarter than electric vehicles. The whole series is equipped with a new generation of 2.0 turbocharged engines and 48V light hybrid systems. It has excellent power output and can achieve a compression ratio of 12:1 and 38% thermal efficiency conversion with the support of Miller technology. Equipped with a self-developed 9-speed wet dual-clutch transmission by Great Wall Motor, it has a transmission efficiency of up to 97%. With the maximum piston motion of the engine, it can reach a 0-100km/h acceleration performance in just 7.8 seconds when the accelerator is pressed down.

From “boy next door” to “man of the breeze”, you are only one WEY Mocha away. It’s exciting as thunder and sweet as coffee. Don’t you think it’s tempting?

In the era of automobile intelligence, Great Wall WEY, as a pioneer in L3 level autonomous driving, has demonstrated the wisdom of cooperation with domestic AI technology companies. Now, as the leader of China’s intelligentization, Great Wall WEY will shoulder the responsibility of promoting intelligent development. Great Wall WEY, together with Mocha car owners, will co-create and grow through the “M expert ecosystem,” and will surely become a favorite “Mocha” drink for domestic users. Of course, “coffee intelligence” sounds like a good idea to me!
