$WRD Interesting WRD 3.0 volume indicator from GAC.
The new Trumpchi Yue 7 received 16,815 orders in just the 1st 30 min after launch. Pre-sale demand was heavily skewed toward AWD, at 88%. Important distinction: that does NOT mean 88% are WRD 3.0 units!
The Yue 7 comes in 4 trims. The full advanced-driving configuration, including LiDAR, is tied to the top AWD Ultra trim. We therefore need the Ultra share before translating orders into potential WRD 3.0 deliveries.
But the potential order pool is also larger than ~17K.
That number only captures the first 30 min after launch on Sept 22. GAC's launch promotion remains open through October 7, offering benefits worth up to RMB56,000, provided vehicles are delivered by Dec 31, 2026.
To watch:
-Total Yue 7 orders accumulated through Oct 7.
-The share going to the WRD 3.0-equipped Ultra trim. With deliveries already underway nationally, the Yue 7 could become a meaningful Q4 contributor toward WeRide's 100K+ WRD 3.0 delivery target for 2026.
