The company has also introduced a new variant of its flagship SUV, the G9, aimed at consumers who prioritize power over advanced driving features, reported CnEV Post.

Today, the Chinese electric vehicle (EV) manufacturer launched the G9 650 Pro, starting at RMB 309,900 ($44,150).

However, the new variant eliminates the two LiDAR sensors found on the G9 650 Max, thus lacking support for the XNGP (Navigation Guided Pilot) full-scenario assisted driving feature, the report further noted.

Nonetheless, the new model does offer assisted driving on highways and includes features like ACC (adaptive cruise control) for regular roads.
