Flagship Aesthetic Design
Addressing the evolving aesthetic demands of users in their 30s and 40s, the D99 adopts a "Tech-Natural Aesthetics 2.0" design philosophy. Inspired by the low-drag streamline of Gulfstream business jets, it features a bold yet refined exterior that balances business presence with family-friendly appeal, aligning with contemporary trends. The front fascia uses a "Cosmic Realm" design, while the side features a flush, zero-step-difference window design comparable to million-dollar luxury vehicles, reducing wind noise and drag. High-gloss silver chrome accents, a contrasting Obsidian Crown roof, and 19-inch "Realm of Aspiration" Michelin wheels highlight premium details. Five exterior colors are available: Dawn Blue, Photoelectric White, Liquid Silver, Canopy Grey, and Metallic Black.
The interior draws inspiration from Eastern homecoming rituals, featuring a double-layered环绕式 cockpit design. V-pattern Eucalyptus wood trim, velvet headliner, and French diamond-quilted seats create a warm, elegant ambiance. An industry-first 3.9-meter "Reunion"环形 ambient light strip and aviation-grade 360-degree rotating reading lights build an immersive lighting space. Four low-saturation interior color schemes are offered: Mist Grey, Dan Brown, Ji Rain Grey, and Yao Black. With 29㎡ of大面积 soft-touch materials, 100% of high-contact areas in the first and second rows use full-grain semi-aniline leather certified by LWG Gold and OEKO-TEX.

Flagship Driving Dynamics
Believing "no four-wheel drive, no luxury," the D99's chassis was fine-tuned by a joint Sino-European专业 team. All-wheel drive is standard across the lineup, as is a front double-wishbone and rear five-link independent suspension setup. This is paired with Konghui dual-chamber闭式 air suspension and可变阻尼 shock absorbers, offering 95mm of suspension travel to handle complex road conditions. The领先的 LMC2.0底盘运动融合控制系统 gives the chassis "active thinking" capability. The active preview魔毯 function scans the road ahead in real-time to预调节悬架 damping, filtering impacts from potholes and speed bumps. High-speed预稳定 and wet-road防打滑 functions quickly correct车身姿态 under极限 conditions,抑制 understeer and slip. A one-click leveling function automatically adjusts the车身 on slopes for scenarios like camping. High-speed dual-tire blowout stability control identifies a爆胎 and corrects the车身 within 200 milliseconds. An intelligent anti-motion sickness function reduces passenger discomfort through多域融合 control, improving third-row comfort.
For braking and handling, it features an MKC2线控制动 system and front four-piston fixed calipers,配合 with Michelin Primacy 5E high-performance tires, achieving a 100-0km/h braking distance of just 37.5 meters. A 6.1-meter turning radius and agile U-turn功能 allow the large vehicle to navigate city streets灵活.
