SAIC Z7

The SAIC Z7 (Chinese: 尚界Z7; pinyin: Shàngjiè Z7) is an upcoming mid-size sedan and shooting brake to be produced by SAIC Motor and sold under the SAIC marque that is part of the Harmony Intelligent Mobility Alliance.

During an interview on December 9, 2025, SAIC Motor chairman Wang Xiaoqiu mentioned that the SAIC marque would be launching two new models in 2026. The Z7 is the first of those two new models and the announcement made regarding the new models was made on the same day that the H5 reached 20,000 sales.[1]

The announcement from December 2025 also contradicts an announcement made on October 27, 2025 that said the SAIC marque's next two models would be SUVs as the Z7 will be a sedan.[2] It will launch in the first quarter of 2026. Spyshots of a shooting brake version were also seen around the same time the teasers were shown.[3]

Teasers of the Z7 were posted onto Weibo on January 7, 2026.[4][1]

The design of the Z7 has been compared to that of the Porsche Taycan by both English and Chinese websites.[4] The Z7 uses front fascia and headlight designs similar to that of the H5, and features a full-width rear light bar. Semi-hidden door handles are present.[3]

The features of the Z7 are yet to be confirmed. However it is speculated that some of the features should be shared with the H5 such as a 4D millimeter wave radar.[5] A LiDAR will come with the Z7, as confirmed by the teasers posted onto Weibo.[3]
