27028 E-HS9 Car Model Building Set | 436 PCS

Mould King 27028 Hongqi E-HS9 — China's Electric Answer to the Rolls-Royce Cullinan

From China's most prestigious automaker comes a full-size electric luxury SUV that has turned heads worldwide. This 436-piece model captures the Hongqi E-HS9 — a car that proves the future of ultra-luxury motoring may be all-electric, all-Chinese, and every bit as commanding as its European competitors.

The Real Machine

Hongqi — which translates to "Red Flag" — is no ordinary Chinese car brand. Founded in 1958, it has served as the official vehicle of Chinese government leaders for decades, carrying the same prestige in China that Rolls-Royce holds in Britain. The E-HS9, unveiled at the 2020 Beijing Auto Show, represents Hongqi's bold move into the electric luxury SUV market. The numbers are impressive: a fully electric powertrain producing up to 544 horsepower from dual motors, all-wheel drive, a 92.5 kWh battery delivering up to 510 km (317 miles) of range, and 0-60 mph in around 5 seconds — all wrapped in a massive 5.2-meter body that automotive journalists have repeatedly compared to the Rolls-Royce Cullinan. Inside, six smart screens, AR navigation, wireless charging, intelligent voice control, and a 7-seat configuration make it a mobile technology lounge. At roughly $110,000 for the top trim, it's a fraction of the Cullinan's price while offering capabilities the Rolls doesn't — like, notably, zero emissions. The E-HS9 has been expanding from its Chinese home market to Norway, the UAE, and other international markets, signaling Hongqi's ambitions to compete on the global luxury stage.

Design & Accuracy

The model captures the E-HS9's imposing, formal presence — the massive chrome-effect grille (a Hongqi design signature), upright stance, and substantial proportions are all well-rendered at this scale. Like the Cullinan in the collection, the E-HS9 offers a refreshing change of visual pace from the low-slung supercars. The clean, modern design language with its flowing lines and minimal ornamentation translates naturally into brick form. At 436 pieces, there's enough detail to convey the E-HS9's premium character, particularly the distinctive front fascia and formal roofline.

Build Experience

A pleasant 50 to 75 minute build that offers something different from the typical supercar construction. The E-HS9's more formal, upright proportions mean a different building challenge compared to low-slung sports cars, and many builders find this variety refreshing. Brick quality is solid with consistent colors and good clutch. The included acrylic display case provides dust protection and stackable presentation, consistent with the rest of the series.

What Builders Love

• Unique in the collection — a Chinese electric luxury SUV offers something completely different from the usual European exotics
• Conversation starter — Hongqi's rich history and the E-HS9's impressive specs make this a model that educates as it displays
• Modern design language — the clean, forward-looking aesthetic represents a different era of automotive luxury
• Display case included — acrylic case with stackable design for clean presentation

Worth Considering

• Limited brand recognition — outside China, Hongqi may not be familiar to casual car enthusiasts
• Static model — no opening doors or functional electric features at this scale
• Subtle design — compared to the dramatic supercars in the collection, the E-HS9's elegant restraint may not command the same visual attention

The Bottom Line

The Mould King 27028 is a forward-looking addition to any car collection — a model that represents where luxury motoring is heading rather than where it's been. The Hongqi E-HS9 combines Chinese prestige, electric technology, and full-size luxury in a package that challenges Western assumptions about where the world's best cars come from. For collectors who value diversity and want their shelf to tell a broader story about global automotive culture, this is an essential piece.
