The Wey Lanshan isn't going anywhere. Rumors of the big hybrid crossover's imminent demise turned out to be greatly exaggerated — and it was WEY CEO Zhao Yongpo himself who shut them down. There are no plans to discontinue the model. In fact, the lineup is set to grow in the fourth quarter of 2026 with a new product tied directly to the Lanshan. It's a direct response to speculation that flared up after WEY expanded its model range.
What exactly that new product will be — a deep facelift, a new trim, or the next generation entirely — the automaker isn't saying yet. So calling the upcoming car a brand-new Lanshan would be premature. For now, the current crossover is still sitting right there on WEY's official website, starting at 299,800 yuan. Six seats, all-wheel-drive Hi4 system, a 5,156 mm body, a 3,050 mm wheelbase. The claimed maximum combined range hits 1,343 km on the WLTC cycle. That said, it's a figure from the automaker's own internal testing, so take it with a grain of salt.
The current intelligent-driving version launched in China back in December 2025. Under the hood: an Nvidia Drive Thor-U chip rated at 700 TOPS, a lidar unit, and 27 driver-assistance sensors in total. For buyers, the official denial removes the biggest risk — paying for a model that's about to get pulled from the lineup. But Q4 is still several months out. Which means the current Lanshan could still hand off the baton to something fresher sooner than expected.
Grabbing a discounted current-gen model right now could turn out to be a smart move. Ordering at full price, though, is worth weighing against a still-unrevealed newcomer. So far, Great Wall has confirmed exactly one thing: the Lanshan name is staying, and so is the update timeline. Price, powertrain, and the actual list of changes for the next version remain officially unannounced.
