In May 2020, the Chinese company WM Motor presented a prototype of its first flagship electric limousine in the form of the Weltmeister Maven Concept, with plans to implement it into production next year.[1] The production car called Weltmeister M7 was presented in November 2021.

A characteristic solution for the M7 was an extensive package of sensors and cameras, which enabled achieving advanced level four of semi-autonomous driving. In addition to 32 sensors located throughout the body, three LiDAR radars located on the front edge of the roof are particularly visible, ensuring continuous monitoring and scanning of the surroundings.[2] The manufacturer claims that the M7 is ready to provide movement closest to the requirements of fully autonomous driving.[3]

The M7 was built by Weltmeister exclusively for the domestic Chinese market, where its sales began at the end of 2022.[4]

Specifications

The M7 is a fully electric car powered by an engine transmitting power to both axles. The battery with a capacity of 98 kWh allows the user to travel approximately 700 km (430 mi) on one charge.[5]
