Huawei is quickly changing the luxury car market. In a massive surprise, the technology giant’s high-end electric car, the Maextro S800, has become a massive hit in China. New sales data shows that this smart car is now selling much better than legendary luxury cars like the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class and the BMW 7 Series.

For a very long time, the most expensive car market in China belonged completely to foreign brands. However, the Maextro S800, which costs around $104,000, has successfully broken that streak.

During recent months, the car did not just beat individual rivals; it managed to sell more units than several top German luxury cars combined. Total sales for this premium car line have already passed 17,000 vehicles in its very first year on the market.

The manufacturing setup behind the car uses a unique partnership system. A car company named JAC Motors builds the physical vehicle at a modern factory in China, but Huawei designs all the smart software and digital systems inside.

This approach is very similar to how the brand makes its smartphones. Instead of selling vehicles at normal car dealerships, the company displays the luxury sedan directly inside its premium flagship stores alongside its latest phones and smartwatches.

Amazing smart features replace old luxury traditions

Experts point out that local car buyers are walking away from old heritage brands because they want advanced digital features. The Maextro S800 is a very long car that treats the inside cabin like a smart office or theater.

The doors open automatically when a camera sees a simple hand gesture from the user. Inside, passengers in the back seat get a massive 40-inch movie projection screen, a powerful 40-speaker sound system, crystal buttons, and a beautiful star-lit ceiling that looks like a Rolls-Royce.

On the hardware side, the car comes as a pure electric vehicle or as a long-range hybrid model that puts out up to 852 horsepower. More importantly, it features the company’s best self-driving software and smart dashboard tools.

Because of trade restrictions, this high-end car is not coming to Western markets anytime soon. However, inside China, the brand is moving very fast. The company plans to release new luxury SUVs and large family vans later this year, and an upcoming ultra-premium model could push prices close to $300,000 by mid-summer.

Huawei is seeing a massive jump in demand for its high-tech computer parts. Around the world, it is becoming much harder for businesses to buy computer chips from overseas makers. Because of this, major software companies are working fast to make sure their programs run smoothly on hardware made by Huawei.

In a major update, a well-known AI development group called DeepSeek officially placed the computer chips of the company on the same level as global industry leaders.

Achieving equal status in official tech reports

Inside the newly released DeepSeek-V4 technical report, the software firm officially listed the Huawei Ascend chip series right alongside top international processors.

This is the first time a major independent software creator has officially stated that a chip from the company works just as well as the best global hardware in a formal document.

The report confirms that the newest AI models can now run completely on the Ascend computing platform without any issues. This means business clients can safely run heavy computer tasks using hardware made entirely by the company. This major milestone is creating a lot of new interest from internet firms, banks, and hospitals that need a stable and reliable choice for their data centers.

A big shift for data centers and computer systems

To help businesses manage these large new data workloads, the storage division of the company also launched a brand-new data center system. This setup includes a special storage box called OceanStor Pacific, which can hold massive amounts of information inside a very small space. It also uses a fresh memory system designed to cut down on long loading delays when users search for data.

The company noted that more than 80 major AI models are now set up to run perfectly on its chip architecture. Industry experts point out that this fast growth is happening because local businesses are working together and using a large wave of engineering talent.

Current market studies show that these partnerships will allow local data centers to become fully independent over the next two years. The company remains highly focused on working with others, inviting scientists and engineers from around the world to build a strong system around its growing hardware lineup.

Huawei secures Leader position in global enterprise campus network report

Huawei has officially confirmed that it achieved another major milestone in its enterprise hardware division. A leading global research firm has officially positioned the company as a Leader in the 2026 Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Wired and Wireless LAN Infrastructure. This achievement marks the fourth consecutive year the company has held this top-tier spot, highlighting its massive global presence.

The only non-North American vendor in the top tier

The position is highly significant because Huawei remains the absolute only non-North American company to sit inside the prestigious Leaders section of the industrial report. Industry analysts note that this recognition reflects the steady commitment of the company to solving complex networking problems for large corporate campuses, government offices, schools, and healthcare facilities worldwide.

To keep pace with modern data demands, the company recently rolled out a major upgrade to its business networking line, officially known as the Xinghe AI Campus Solution. This updated enterprise offering focuses heavily on delivering three core pillars for modern workplaces: ultra-fast wireless connections, full-scope hardware security shields, and absolute network autonomy to reduce daily upkeep requirements for corporate technical teams.

Advanced wireless speed and built-in anti-spying protection

On the hardware side, the company introduced a unique wireless access point that builds heavily on current Wi-Fi 7 technical standards while anticipating upcoming Wi-Fi 8 features. This device utilizes a multi-point coordination technology developed by the company to eliminate signal interference in crowded office buildings, effectively doubling the network speed for individual users during heavy traffic spikes.

Security also received a massive overhaul in the new software package. The company integrated an exclusive protection tool called Wi-Fi Shield, which completely blocks the threat of data packet eavesdropping right at the physical radio layer. Furthermore, the system includes post-quantum cryptography to ensure that company data transmissions remain safe from future decryption threats.

Finally, the automated operation tools can analyze network health in real time, allowing the system to automatically fix roughly 80 percent of common wireless connection issues within a few minutes without requiring manual intervention from an IT manager.
