Interior

It was presented in November 2021 at the Guangzhou Auto Show with the code name “C52X”.[5] The official name was planned to be the X6, but as launch, the name used for the domestic market was changed to "Mofang", meaning "Rubic's Cube". The Beijing X6 or Mofang in the Chinese domestic market is the first gasoline-powered vehicle to use Huawei’s HarmonyOS.[6]

Powertrain[edit]

It is offered with a 1.5 L turbo gasoline engine that produces 130 kW (170 hp) and 305 N⋅m (225 lbf⋅ft) and drives the front wheels through a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission.[7]
