This year, the definition of a flagship model is being rewritten: the combination of pure electric and hybrid dual-power technology, the spacious performance of mid-to-large-sized vehicles, and the high integration of luxury and intelligence are gradually becoming industry benchmarks.
With market competition expected to intensify in 2025, GAC Group's premium luxury brand, HYPTEC, is introducing the pure electric + range extender dual-power model, theHYPTEC HL, which redefines the luxury standard for mid-to-large SUVs and stands out as a top contender in this segment.
In 2025, flagships are not about being the biggest but being even bigger.This phrase is perfectly embodied by the HYPTEC HL.
Inspired by the ultimate luxury of high-end yachts from California’s coastline, the HYPTEC HL’s “land yacht” design draws significant attention. With a vehicle length of 5126mm and a wheelbase of 3088mm, it exudes the imposing aura expected of a flagship model.
The HYPTEC HL’s interior design pursues simplicity with rich textures, combining rare wood veneers with leather materials. It avoids ostentation while exuding sophistication, perfectly aligning with the aesthetic preferences of today’s high-end consumers.
Meanwhile, its “zero-gravity” Gulfstream seats and spacious body provide an MPV-like level of comfort for passengers. This seamless blend of luxury and practicality is precisely what flagship SUVs in 2025 are aiming for.
The HYPTEC HL not only addresses users’ range anxiety but also sets a new benchmark for mid-to-large luxury vehicles in the NEV market.
The HYPTEC HL will be offered in two versions: pure electric and range extender. The pure electric version boasts an impressive 750km ultra-long range to meet consumers’ demands for extended driving.
Meanwhile, the range extender version offers over 350km of pure electric range and a combined range of up to 1,200km, making it equally adept at city commuting and long-distance travel.
Additionally, its roof-mounted LiDAR and advanced intelligent driving systems showcase the HYPTEC brand’s strong capabilities in smart technologies. The “image-free” autonomous driving experience is highly anticipated and is expected to become one of the HYPTEC HL’s key highlights.
As a culmination of luxury and intelligence, the HYPTEC HL has already demonstrated its potential to become the flagship NEV model in China for 2025.
Choosing a flagship model involves not only the product itself but also the company’s strength behind it.
The HYPTEC factory, the world’s only dedicated NEV manufacturing facility, uses cutting-edge production techniques and rigorous quality standards to craft the HYPTEC HL as a premier Chinese luxury NEV flagship.
As HYPTEC’s brand leader Gu Huinan stated, the HYPTEC HL is benchmarked against the world’s top luxury products, fully integrating traditional classics, ultimate luxury, and cutting-edge technologies. It not only leads trends at the forefront of the era but also inherits the century-long legacy of the automotive industry, establishing itself as a timeless new classic.
The HYPTEC HL is expected to begin pre-sales in February 2025. It will bear witness to independent brands taking a stronger stance in the Chinese flagship automotive market and leading the global NEV market with greater dominance.
