At the 2025 Guangzhou Auto Show, FAW-Audi will showcase a lineup of flagship models, including the A5L Gankun Smart Driving Edition and the A6L e-tron, demonstrating its breakthrough in intelligent technology across both gasoline and pure electric vehicles. This also represents a new path of Sino-German technological integration, offering a possibility for the intelligent transformation of the luxury car market.
The intelligent transformation of China's auto market is forcing luxury brands to re-examine the logic of technological collaboration. Notably, FAW-Audi has become the world's first luxury brand to adopt Huawei's Gankun intelligent driving technology on a large scale. This deep integration between China and Germany has restructured the technology cooperation model of joint ventures, responding to the core demand of the Chinese market for a "localized intelligent experience."
As a major new model launched at this auto show, the FAW-Audi A5L Gankun Smart Driving Edition, priced at 286,800 yuan, has become a "value disruptor" in the intelligentization of luxury fuel vehicles, which will subvert the market's perception of the "intelligent shortcomings" of fuel vehicles.
On the technical level, the collaboration between Huawei's Gankun Intelligent Driving and Audi's new Vehicle Motion Management (VMM) module achieves millisecond-level response in perception, decision-making, and execution, seamlessly integrating Audi's signature driving experience with intelligent assistance.
In terms of design, the embedded dual lidar paired with a constant temperature self-cleaning system balances industrial aesthetics with adaptability to complex environments; its comfort features, comparable to those of a C-class car, and globally unified safety standards further solidify its position as a benchmark for luxury fuel-powered intelligent vehicles.
The joint exhibition of the Audi A6L e-tron showcased FAW-Audi's attitude and strength in the pure electric vehicle field. As the first sedan built on the PPE luxury pure electric platform, this model sets a new benchmark in the C-segment intelligent electric market with its dual dimensions of "technology + luxury".
In terms of dimensions, the 5073mm length and 3076mm wheelbase balance executive presence with spacious comfort, while the ultra-low drag coefficient of 0.22 achieves the ultimate balance between aesthetics and aerodynamics; the dynamic light language system and the 9-zone adjustable panoramic sunroof extend the luxurious feel to the details of the experience.
Inside the cabin, a "digital stage" is formed by multiple screens and electronic exterior rearview mirrors, which, together with AR-HUD augmented reality head-up display, creates an immersive digital interactive ecosystem; the 107kWh battery pack brings a CLTC ultra-long range of 785km, and the 800V high-voltage platform can charge 302km in 10 minutes, eliminating the range and charging anxiety of pure electric users.
With the support of Huawei's GanKun intelligent driving technology, it maintains its leading position in intelligent driving, achieving a triple breakthrough in "luxury and comfort, ultra-long range, and intelligent safety". In addition, models such as the new Q5L and A6L, which will be launched in early 2026, will continue to be upgraded, truly realizing "hybridization and full intelligence".
