The Roewe Jiayue 07 will debut on August 13. Positioned as a mid-to-large SUV targeting the 150,000-200,000 yuan segment, it uses a range-extended powertrain. The exterior features a 2.24-meter connected light bar, roof-mounted LiDAR, and Momenta R5 advanced driver assistance. Dimensions measure 4900/1910/1745mm with a 2,908mm wheelbase, offering six color options. The powertrain pairs a 1.5L range extender (72kW) with a 162kW motor, matched with 32.6kWh or 44.2kWh batteries delivering 180-240km WLTP pure electric range (320km max CLTC). It also features the Doubao large model 2.0 series.

Founded at Auto Shanghai 2025, the brand targets 30 outlets by end-2026. Lepas previewed the L4 EV, L6 and L8 at the KL Polo Club in July, though final market specifications remain unconfirmed. The company has appointed 20 dealers and is expected to officially launch in Malaysia in Q4.

The Geely Xingyue L, launched in 2021, remains Geely's best-selling model with 15,220 units sold in June alone. Spy shots of the new model (internal code KX21) have emerged. The exterior retains the vertical multi-bar front grille with redesigned, more slender headlamps and a roof-mounted LiDAR (not installed on the test vehicle). It wears 235/50 R20 wheels with the Geely China Star logo. The interior is expected to feature a dual-screen setup. The i-HEV hybrid system continues with a 1.5L turbo engine (120 kW) and electric motor (175 kW). The presence of both charging port and fuel cap on the test vehicle suggests a PHEV variant may also be offered.

The new Maserati Grecale has launched with three models priced from 578,800 to 1,016,800 yuan.

Measuring 5 meters in length with a 3-meter wheelbase, it uses a 2+3+2 seat layout with 64 combinations. Powertrain options include pure EV and range-extended variants, with the EV version supporting 800V 4C fast charging. The exterior features a connected light bar with dotted LED accents and an illuminated logo, while the lower grille connects to vertical daytime running lights via black trim. Chrome side trim highlights the visual center, bulging wheel arches add presence, and the roof carries silver roof rails. The connected taillights use dotted red LEDs for high nighttime visibility.

Spy shots of the facelifted Mercedes-Benz C-Class (W206) have surfaced online, with the mid-cycle refresh expected to debut next year. The exterior receives a larger hexagonal shield-shaped grille with a thick chrome border and winged chrome trim. The headlight daytime running lights have been redesigned from a downward arrow shape to a tri-star pattern positioned centrally, aligning with the updated E-Class's lighting language. The taillights mirror this tri-star design. As a mid-cycle update, powertrain options are expected to remain unchanged.
