Wey

Vehicle and Equipment Manufacturers

Wey is the luxury marque of Great Wall Motor, focusing on crossovers and SUVs. GWM introduced it as a third brand in April 2017 and named it after the family name of its chairman, Wei Jianjun, positioning it above Haval as the group's premium brand. The off-road Tank 300 was first sold as the Wey Tank 300 before Tank was spun off as its own brand in March 2021, after which Wey was repositioned as an urban SUV brand, with the Wey Lanshan as the group's example of an urban SUV. Under the One GWM strategy of November 2023, Wey was downgraded to a sub-brand in export markets.
