Great Wall Motors' high-end marque Wey is to deliver its first model in Europe, which is plug-in hybrid SUV, in early 2022.

The Chinese carmaker made the announcement on Monday at the Munich auto show held in Germany, which is also known as the IAA.

Wey said the company will start to take orders later this year on the flagship model, called Coffee 01.

Wey has sold over 30,000 Coffee 01s since its launch in May in China. The plug-in hybrid model has a driving range of 150 kilometers on pure electric mode.

It has a number of advanced driving-assist functions as well as smart cabin features facial recognition and the augmented reality head-up display.

"As the vanguard of Great Wall Motors' overseas strategy, Wey will start first in Germany and then go to other parts of Europe," said Sun Bing, a senior executive in charge of the marque's operations in the European Union.

Wey said it will open the first European experience center in Munich in 2022 and over 60 service stations will be set up in the same year.
