Recently, it has been revealed that Honda is actively exploring a partnership with Huawei in the field of intelligent driving. Models under the “Ye” brand may feature two parallel smart driving solutions: Honda SENSING 360+ advanced driving system and Huawei ADS.
Unique Intelligent Cockpit with Huawei Collaboration
The “Ye” brand models will come equipped with a light-field screen co-developed with Huawei. This technology, similar to AR-HUD, offers a large, immersive, and distant viewing experience within a compact space. Compared to traditional in-car LCD screens, the light-field screen boasts three key advantages:
- 40-inch ultra-wide display,
- 3-meter long-distance imaging,
- 90 PPD super-retina resolution.
Delayed Launch of Ye S7 and Ye P7
The initial plan to launch the first two “Ye” models, the Ye S7 and Ye P7, by the end of 2024 has been postponed to the first quarter of 2025.

At the rear, the design is relatively rounded, with tail lamps echoing the front light cluster’s “C”-shaped elements.

Inside, the Ye P7 is equipped with:

The Ye P7 will offer two powertrain options:
- Single-motor rear-wheel drive, with a rear motor delivering a maximum power of 200 kW,
- Dual-motor all-wheel drive, where the front motor produces 150 kWand the rear motor delivers 200 kW.
Competitors and Market Outlook
Positioned as a pure electric mid-size SUV, the Ye P7’s main competitors are expected to include the XPeng G6 and GAC Toyota bZ4X. Meanwhile, Tesla Model Y remains the dominant player in this segment.
