Chinese premium electric vehicle brand Avatr has released official preview images of its upcoming Avatr 07L, a more spacious long-wheelbase variant of the popular Avatr 07 luxury SUV. The reveal comes as the brand gears up for its highly anticipated entry into the Australian market.
Avatr, a joint venture between Changan Automobile, battery giant CATL, and technology leader Huawei, is positioning itself as a serious contender in the global luxury EV segment. The brand was officially confirmed for Australia last year, with expectations of a launch in late 2026 or early 2027.
Avatr 07L: Key Highlights
The Avatr 07L features a noticeably extended wheelbase and redesigned rear section for improved rear passenger space and practicality. Key visual updates include longer rear doors, a more generous C-pillar window, and an extended trunk area compared to the standard Avatr 07.
According to preliminary specifications filed with Chinese authorities:
- Length: Approximately 4,910 mm
- Wheelbase: Approaching 2,990 mm (an increase from 2,940 mm on the standard model)
- Expected to offer enhanced rear legroom and boot capacity, making it ideal for family buyers
The 07L is also anticipated to feature Huawei’s advanced 896-channel LiDAR sensor and the latest Huawei ADS (Qiankun) intelligent driving system, placing it at the forefront of autonomous driving technology. It will be available in both pure electric (BEV) and range-extender (EREV) powertrain options, consistent with the current Avatr 07 lineup.
Luxury Meets Cutting-Edge Technology
Avatr vehicles are known for their sophisticated design, premium interiors, and Huawei-powered smart cockpits featuring large panoramic displays, zero-gravity seats, and high-end audio systems. The 07L is expected to continue this tradition while offering greater refinement for the luxury family SUV segment.
Australian Market Ambitions
Avatr’s arrival in Australia forms part of a growing wave of premium Chinese EV brands targeting the local market. The brand is expected to compete with established luxury names as well as emerging Chinese rivals such as BYD Denza and Zeekr.
While exact timing and model lineup for Australia are yet to be confirmed, industry sources suggest the Avatr 07 and 07L could be among the first models offered Down Under, alongside the larger Avatr 11 and flagship 12.
This strategic move reflects Avatr’s growing international ambitions, following its planned expansion into markets such as the United Kingdom and Southeast Asia.
As more details emerge in the coming months, the Avatr 07L is shaping up to be a compelling option for Australian buyers seeking advanced technology, luxury appointments, and strong performance in the premium electric SUV category.
The interior of the Avatr 07L showcases a sophisticated fusion of minimalist futuristic design, premium materials, and cutting-edge technology, creating a serene and luxurious “smart lounge” experience.

This seamless digital ecosystem delivers crisp visuals and intuitive interaction while maintaining a clean, button-free dashboard with hidden air vents for a true “spaceship” aesthetic.

The Avatr 07L benefits significantly from its long wheelbase, offering class-leading rear legroom. Key features include:
- Dual Zero-Gravity Front Seats with 120° reclining, 16-way power adjustment, heating, ventilation, and multi-point massage functions
