A sports coupe SUV that shows cutting-edge intelligence. The G6’s appearance harmoniously blends the concept of fluid mechanics with water droplets inspired from a captivating science fiction written by Mr. Cixin Liu. The smooth and emotional lines characteristically outline the postures side, not only does this highlight the sporty and youthful nature of the car, but also reduces wind resistance, allowing for an ultra long-lasting cruising range with a low drag coefficient of Cd = 0.244.

The G6 innovatively adopts a short front and rear overhang, combine this with a suspended roof and we have a vehicle that achieves a low-center-of-gravity, this effectively enhances the feeling of handling all whilst magically utilizing the space within its footprint. The dynamic design language and the maximization of internal space enables the driver to fully realize driving desire.

By ensuring maximized interior space and giving the vehicle a sensual, explosive appearance, the wide shoulder design is also used to emphasize the vehicle’s sporty features which in turn enhances its dynamism.

In contrast to the standard vehicle’s cold, mechanical front face style, the G6 front face adopts a more emotional and warm style that is influenced by the intelligence of the ‘robot face’, following an evolution path similar to that of human >> robot >> emotional intelligence.

The boundless universe wrapped with the beauty of nature serves as the source for the G6’s colour inspiration. Colours like New moon silver, frost white, galaxy gray, glow lake black and photon blue are available. These are the colours that were carefully created to match the different aesthetic needs of the user. They all use a premium BASF coating, known for its steady, well-balanced performance, environmental protection and exceptional weather resistance.

The G6’s interior design adheres to a minimalist design philosophy, it executes this using a combination of youthfulness and a feeling of technology. Capturing these characteristics are a minimalist NAPPA steering wheel, modern ergonomic seats, functional partitions and a dramatic colour contrast design that expresses a stylish feeling. The technological ring that wraps the interior enhances the users perception of space, experience and comfort.
