The Hongqi E-HS9 is definitely a head-turner, and when you compare it to luxury EVs like the BMW iX or Mercedes EQS SUV, it packs a lot of features for the price. You’re getting a full-size, ultra-premium SUV with a high-end interior, a massive screen setup, and a serious presence on the road.
That said it really depends on what you value most. If you’re looking for a luxury EV that’s unique and fully loaded it might be worth it. But if you’re concerned about brand reputation, long-term resale value, and software updates there are still some unknowns compared to established European brands.
