On the media day of the Chengdu Auto Show, the Deepal booth was packed tight. This warmth wasn't unexpected, after all the all-new G318 brought two hardcore selling points: box-shaped styling, plus the only Huawei Qiankun dual-intelligent system in the 200,000 RMB class.
First look at price. The all-new Deepal G318 limited promotional price 196,800 RMB-236,800 RMB, three configurations: 4WD Comfort Tianshu Edition, 4WD Comfort Qiankun Edition, 4WD Air Suspension Qiankun Edition.

Truth be told, being able to buy a box-shaped SUV equipped with Huawei Qiankun ADS 5 Pro and HarmonySpace 5 Cockpit in this price range would be unimaginable two years ago.

From "Off-road Toy" to "Family All-rounder", G318 Redefines the Box-Shaped SUV
The positioning of the all-new G318 is interesting: "9 Cities 1 Wild", 90% time commuting in the city, 10% time out exploring. This positioning precisely hits the real needs of most family users: want a vehicle that looks tough, feels comfortable to use, and can occasionally go off-road, but don't want to sacrifice 90% city comfort for that 10% outdoor scenario.
Body length over 5 meters, spacious space brought by long wheelbase, rear row completely flat folding can become a 1.8-meter large bed, these details all convey a signal: this vehicle first serves family daily life. And dual-motor real 4WD, two differential locks, ET all-terrain system, then guarantee that 10% of outdoor scenarios won't break down. 450 horsepower, 552N·m peak torque, 5-second level 0-100 acceleration, power reserve is also sufficient to handle various road conditions.
Huawei Qiankun Dual-Intelligence Goes Downmarket, 200,000 RMB Box-Shaped SUV Finally Has a Smart Brain
The biggest highlight of this all-new G318 is bringing Huawei Qiankun ADS 5 Pro and HarmonySpace 5 Cockpit to the 200,000 RMB box-shaped SUV market. 27 sensors fusion perception, plus WEWA 2.0 architecture, urban pilot NCA, highway pilot NCA, full-domain intelligent parking assistance all arranged.

Urban commute most frustrating ring road passing, unprotected left turn, narrow road anti-scratch, congestion anti-cut-in, the system can handle autonomously. In-cabin laser Lidar placement location is also worth mentioning, installed inside the cabin means no wind resistance, do not obstruct view, fear no dirt, rainy days, tunnels, low light, backlight environment still work. Identify 30cm x 30cm small obstacles 116 meters in advance, this perception distance has already exceeded most old drivers' reaction limits.
All-dimensional anti-collision system CAS embeds 24 active safety capabilities into the decision link, 4 core safety scenarios achieved same-level leapfrog leading. Machine reaction speed is faster than humans, this is an objective fact, especially in emergency situations, millisecond-level decision difference might be the dividing line between avoiding accidents and accidents.

MoLA large model architecture voice interaction supports ten instructions mixed speaking, Sichuan dialect, Cantonese, etc., ten dialects all can recognize. Navigation Agent can understand "that coffee shop next to the airport" such fuzzy expression, auto correct typos plan optimal route. These details are exactly where practical value is most embodied in daily use.

"Air Suspension + CDC + Magic Carpet" Comfort Trio, Box-Shaped SUV Can Also Be Very Comfortable
Chassis aspect, all-new G318 equipped same-level only "Air Suspension + CDC + Magic Carpet" combination, plus double wishbone + multi-link independent suspension. Value of this system lies in millisecond-level damping adjustment, city road conditions soft and quiet, near-suburb unpaved road surface more smooth. Past box-shaped SUVs were criticized most for "hard bridge hard horse" ride quality, G318 this chassis solution counts as completed the comfort supplement.
