The Kaiyi Showjet (Chinese: 炫界) is a subcompact crossover SUV produced by the Chinese manufacturer Kaiyi Auto. The model shared the platform with the earlier introduced Chery Tiggo 5x and is designed by Pininfarina.[6]

Overview

[edit]

The Kaiyi Showjet was revealed on 24 December 2019. The Showjet is positioned below the compact Kaiyi X3 as Kaiyi's latest budget crossover.[7][8]

The Kaiyi Showjet was sold with a lone engine option, a 1.5-litre inline-4 engine mated to either a 5-speed manual gearbox or a CVT delivering 116 PS (85 kW; 114 hp) and 143 N⋅m (105 lb⋅ft; 14.6 kg⋅m) of torque.[9]

Kaiyi Showjet Pro

[edit]

A variant called the Kaiyi Showjet Pro was launched in 2021, with the production of the Showjet Pro starting in March 2021. The Kaiyi Showjet Pro features a redesigned front fascia and a variant of the engine of the regular Showjet, the SQRE4T15 1.5-litre inline-4 turbo engine, producing 115 kW (154 hp; 156 PS).[10]

2024 facelift

[edit]

In February 2024, the more expensive, more modern Showjet Pro variant underwent a restyling. The car gained a redesigned front fascia with a lower air intake, a reshaped bumper, and distinctive teardrop-shaped bezels under the headlights. Furthermore, the passenger compartment was redesigned, including a new multimedia screen.[11]

In September 2022, another importer also starts to sell the vehicle in Italy. Eurasia Motors (local importer of Great Wall and Haval) launched a new brand named EMC and renamed the Showjet as EMC Wave 3. It is manufactured in Sichuan, China, and converted to LPG in Piedmont, Northern Italy.
