Forthing V9's Hybrid System Honored as One of the World’s Top Ten – A Breakthrough in China’s High-End MPV Innovation
The Forthing V9, developed by Dongfeng Forthing, has made a strong impression on the global Automotive stage. Its advanced Mach Hybrid system has been recognized as one of the “World’s Top Ten Hybrid Power Systems,” standing out for its exceptional performance inpower, safety, and efficiency. This award not only affirms Dongfeng Liuzhou Motor’s deep capabilities in hybrid technology but also highlights the strength of Chinese innovation in the new energy era.

As one of the most authoritative global evaluations in the automotive sector, the “World’s Top Ten Hybrid Systems” award gathers top experts and industry leaders, offering significant reference value for consumers. What makes the Mach Hybrid system on the Forthing V9 so remarkable?
Confidence in Every Journey: Power, Range, and Safety for the Whole Family
For Chinese families, an MPV isn’t just about space — it’s about safety, reliability, and long-distance comfort. The Forthing V9’s Mach Hybrid system was designed with the concept of “worry-free short trips, anxiety-free long journeys,” delivering powerful and practical solutions for daily use and long-haul driving alike.
Imagine setting out from Beijing with the whole family on a weekend road trip. The Forthing V9 is powered by a 1.5T hybrid-specific engine with a remarkable thermal efficiency of 45.18%, enabling lower fuel consumption and more efficient power. With a CLTC combined range of up to 1,300 km, a single tank can easily cover the journey from Beijing to Shanghai — no frequent charging stops needed. Its pure electric range of 200 km ensures easy daily commuting with minimal charging.


While conventional MPVs often suffer from sluggish power and high fuel use, the Forthing V9 breaks the stereotype. Its high-efficiency oil-cooled flat-wire electric drive achieves motor efficiency of 97%, delivering 228 kW of combined power and 540 N·m of torque, enabling 0–100 km/h acceleration in just 8.8 seconds. Whether overtaking on highways or navigating city traffic, it ensures a smooth, responsive ride.
Battery safety is a top concern for new energy vehicles, and Forthing addresses this with confidence. The Armor Battery 3.0 system adopts a four-dimensional safety design with aerogel insulation pads, PVC coating on the sides and bottom, and has passed 132 extreme safety tests — including collisions, compression, submersion, and fire — providing reliable protection for families on the road.

From Hybrid to Smart Tech: Forthing V9 Wins 12 Major Industry Awards
Technology should enhance experience — and the Forthing V9 proves it. Since its debut, the vehicle has won 12 prestigious awards, including:
● China’s Top Ten Car Bodies
● Best Navigation Assistance at the World Intelligent Driving Challenge
● Comprehensive Champion of Luxury Smart MPVs
● TOP Grade Three-Dimensional Performance Award
● Hybrid Vehicle of the Year
These honors reflect its strengths in hybrid power, intelligent driving, and safety design — making it a true all-rounder in the new energy MPV market.

With features like an L2+ intelligent driving assistance system, a 41-inch triple screen display, and luxury aviation-style seats, the Forthing V9 transforms travel into a “mobile first-class cabin” experience. Trusted by prominent figures such as Hu Ling and Zhang Xuefeng, the Forthing V9 is also seen at events like the Summer Davos Forum, Phoenix Bay Area Financial Forum, and People.cn Entrepreneur Conference — symbolizing its reputation as the ideal MPV for both business and family use.
Leading with Innovation: Made-in-China, Built for the World
Being named among the world’s top hybrid systems is more than an honor — it’s a bold statement from Forthing and Dongfeng about the rise of Chinese technology. With a focus on efficiency, safety, and intelligence, the Mach Hybrid system solves critical user concerns around range, fuel economy, and driving comfort — turning the Forthing V9 into a true “space of happiness.”

Looking ahead, Dongfeng Forthing is preparing to unveil the world’s first EMB-based plug-in hybrid MPV, co-developed with Zuobiaoxi, further enhancing performance and comfort. The future promises even more exciting experiences, as Forthing continues to innovate and care for every customer with smart technologies — delivering worry-free mobility, near or far.
