Two CEOs take the stage to unveil a real-world teardown; the Qijing GT7, built on an L3‑level advanced driver-assistance architecture, undergoes its first disassembly.
The trend of automakers livestreaming vehicle teardowns has now reached Qijing. On August 16, Qijing Auto officially held its “World’s First Teardown of a Mass-Produced L3‑Architecture Vehicle” event in Guangzhou, offering an inside look at the Qijing GT7’s eight major redundancy systems and its manufacturing quality. Through authentic livestreams, genuine disassembly, and real‑world challenges, the event demystified cutting‑edge technology, fully showcasing the quality standards of million‑dollar‑level manufacturing while making safety design tangible and comprehensible via rigorous, hands‑on teardowns.
At the event, Liu Jiaming, CEO of Qijing Auto, and Jin Yuzhi, Senior Vice President of Huawei and CEO of Yinwang, attended together. Joining them were Tim, founder of Film Hurricane; professional automotive reviewers; race car drivers; real‑world car owners; as well as industry experts from CATL and the China Automotive Center. From multiple perspectives—industry, technology, users, and third parties—they jointly witnessed the world’s first public teardown of an L3‑level architecture, highlighting Qijing Auto’s cutting‑edge technological leadership.
The core characteristic of Level 3 conditional automated driving is the transfer of driving responsibility from the human driver to the system. This necessitates that the system fundamentally eliminate single-point failure risks, making full‑stack redundancy an essential technological prerequisite for the mass production and deployment of L3 systems. Qijing is a high-end, intelligent electric vehicle brand jointly developed by GAC Group and Huawei’s Qiankun. From the very beginning of product definition, the two partners have worked closely together on co‑development, seamlessly integrating Huawei Qiankun’s full‑stack intelligent technologies with GAC’s comprehensive vehicle manufacturing capabilities. As a result, the Qijing GT7 comes standard with Huawei Qiankun’s latest, most comprehensive, and most powerful technologies, and it is the first domestically produced model to implement a full‑stack redundant architecture designed for Level 3 automated driving.
At the event, the Qijing GT7 showcased its eight redundant modules one by one. Jin Yuzhi, Senior Vice President of Huawei and CEO of Yingwang, stated on site: “We are preparing for the next‑generation L3‑level autonomous driving system, which must deliver enhanced safety and reliability.”
For users, the Qijing GT7 boasts the only Level 3 full‑stack redundant architecture in its class, serving as a future‑proof safety foundation that safeguards driving even in extreme scenarios. Moreover, this architecture seamlessly supports next‑generation OTA upgrades, ensuring that the vehicle’s intelligent features remain cutting‑edge and continuously evolve over several years.
Driving dynamics are the cornerstone of advanced intelligent driving implementation and the most direct reflection of a manufacturer’s engineering pedigree. In this teardown, we delve into the vehicle’s chassis and suspension, dissecting its hardware, software, and calibration to reveal the Qijing GT7’s million‑dollar‑class handling prowess. On the hardware front, the Qijing GT7 features an all‑aluminum double-wishbone front suspension and a rear H‑arm multi-link setup, achieving roughly 30% unsprung weight reduction compared to steel components of equivalent specifications. This results in faster suspension response and crisp, precise cornering without any sluggishness.
On the software side, the Qijing GT7 debuts on Huawei’s Chitu platform. Its six‑domain millisecond‑level coordination not only significantly reduces motion sickness but also delivers a thrilling, controlled drift experience with enhanced safety. Moreover, the entire chassis has been meticulously tuned by a European supercar team using over a thousand parameter settings, earning it the “Mountain‑Running King” certification at Tianmen Mountain and seamlessly blending everyday comfort with driving exhilaration.
This teardown also focuses on the battery and vehicle‑body safety areas that users care about most, thoroughly validating the robustness of the vehicle’s comprehensive safety system. On the battery front, Qijing has partnered with CATL to create a dual‑layer, all‑domain battery protection system: the NP2.0 thermoelectric‑separated cell is paired with a dual‑surface liquid‑cooling solution, complemented by a double‑layer high‑strength steel underbody shield capable of withstanding an instantaneous impact of approximately 14 tons. This design ensures that even in everyday underbody impacts or stone‑chip collisions, the battery cells remain undamaged, while also maintaining stable performance during high‑temperature driving.
In terms of body structure, the Qijing GT7 features an Xuan Dun cage‑type white body with over 90% ultra‑high‑strength steel. Key components incorporate aerospace‑grade 2,200 MPa hot‑formed tubular beams, complemented by quadruple door‑unlock redundancy and a standalone CPM supercapacitor power supply. In the event of a collision, these measures firmly safeguard the occupant compartment’s survival space, while ensuring unobstructed escape and rescue pathways even under extreme conditions, delivering safety and peace of mind at every moment.
Leading whole-vehicle integration capabilities serve as a key benchmark for assessing an automaker’s systemic strength, determining whether a vehicle can strike the optimal balance among aesthetic design, mechanical performance, and practical interior space. Addressing the longstanding challenge of reconciling spaciousness with visual appeal in estate‑style models, the Qijing GT7 leverages the accumulated expertise of a major manufacturer to achieve millimeter‑level optimization. The vehicle features a class‑leading 215-liter front trunk, easily accommodating multiple suitcases and travel gear. In this regard, Liu Jiaming, CEO of Qijing Automobile, stated: “This battle for interior space embodies the ‘relentless pursuit’ that has guided our design team from start to finish—every millimeter counts, and not a single inch is compromised, all in service of the user experience.”
This marks the world’s first complete teardown of an L3‑level autonomous driving architecture, showcasing Qijing’s technological prowess and unwavering confidence in quality through a fully transparent disassembly and real‑world testing process. Currently, the Qijing GT7 has officially launched, and customers who take delivery can immediately enjoy Huawei’s Qiankun Intelligent Driving ADS 5. The new vehicle combines premium aesthetics, exceptional driving dynamics, and cutting‑edge intelligence—all at a price point comparable to luxury models—while benefiting from China’s only lifetime warranty on the entire vehicle with unlimited mileage, delivering a reassuring and dependable smart‑mobility experience. Following the GT7, Qijing’s second model, the GX7, is set to debut soon, featuring a full‑featured ADS 5, four LiDAR sensors, and multiple safety‑redundancy systems. We look forward to seeing how it performs going forward.
