The Hongqi L5 is a large retro styled luxury
sedan whose design was inspired by the
discontinued Hongqi CA770. The L5 has been
exported to Belarus via donations, where it is pressed into service with the
Belarusian military as a parade car.
In
2016 Hongqi announced a V8 version of the L5, powered by a 4.0 liter twin-turbo
V8 producing 381 horsepower with an eight-speed automatic. The V12 model is
designated as CA7600 and the V8 version as CA7400. The CA7400 was released in
2017.
