Luxury EV which ‘looks like a Rolls Royce’ but $200k less has genius feature

With its metal grille and vertical slats, you could say the grand E-HS9 looks almost exactly like a Rolls Royce Cullinan.

While it may not match the high status of the Cullinan, Hongqi's E-HS9 offers a luxury at a much lower cost.

Designed by Chinese automotive manufacturer Hongqi, the six-seater SUV offers tech throughout and even includes a genius, life-hack feature.

However, the EV can be purchased for a whopping £230,000 less than a Rolls Royce.

Everything in the car is controlled through the dashboard touchscreen which includes the mod cons like climate control, sat nav and a 'specialist passenger console.'

And say goodbye to the traditional key insertion to kickstart the engine. This vehicle's stop-start system is fully virtual and keyless.

Design-wise, the interior is filled with high-quality beige leather, faux wood and aluminium trims.

For you tech-savvy lot, the electric vehicle contains four infotainment screens, charging ports and seats similar to those on private jets.

Wherever you go, all your entertainment and device charging needs are met.

Onto the genius tech feature that is in the boot.

Not only can you fold down the third row of seats for extra space, but there's also a slightly hidden button on the side wall that lets you adjust the suspension height.

Essentially, loading and unloading the boot is much easier as you can lower the motor to a comfortable height, before returning it to its original position. No more struggling with the weekly shop!

The front section has been compared to a 'festival of lights' in that it has lower headlights, upper LED daytime lights, and even LED strips that extend across the grille.

Sadly, Hongqi has not disclosed any plans to bring its vehicles to the UK. At the moment, they are mostly only available across Asia and the Middle East.

Although, you might be in luck if you're within one of its select European locations, including the Netherlands and Norway. Norway is an added bonus as the budget-friendly vehicles are sold much cheaper than the retail price, at £52,000.

The car has already turned heads of big-time YouTubers like SuperCar Blondie.

The featured host of the show Dominika Sofroniciova commented on its design, saying: 'This is a full-size electric luxury SUV. This reminds me of Lincoln and this reminds me of Rolls-Royce, it’s both of them if they had a baby.'
