The article anticipates the upcoming launch of the Honda S7, an electric SUV produced by the Dongfeng-Honda joint venture, in China. This model drops the "Ye" branding previously associated with Honda's electric vehicle line. The S7, equipped with Huawei's assisted driving software, positions itself as a competitor to the Tesla Model Y and other Chinese EVs. It boasts impressive specifications, including an 89.8 kWh CATL battery, a range of 620 km, and options for all-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive. The adoption of Huawei technology reflects Honda's "In China for China" strategy to strengthen its presence in the competitive Chinese electric vehicle market. Despite its historical success, Honda has experienced a decline in sales in China, prompting the innovation seen in the Ye series.
