Super Eagles striker Victor Osimhen and his Galatasaray teammates are cruising in style after the Turkish club secured a lucrative partnership deal with Chinese automobile manufacturer Hongqi.
Multi-Million Naira Luxury Rides
Each Galatasaray player will receive a fully electric Hongqi E-HS9 luxury SUV, with the total package valued at over N165 million. The partnership was formalized under the leadership of Hongqi's Turkish representative, Yenikoy Motors.
While Nigerian international Osimhen is currently away on national duty, his teammates have already begun enjoying their new exotic rides. Teammate Yunus Akgun was spotted admiring and test-driving his luxury vehicle through the streets of Istanbul.
Cutting-Edge Electric Technology
The Hongqi E-HS9 represents the pinnacle of electric vehicle innovation. This full-size intelligent electric sports utility vehicle features the Quectel AG15 module integrated with the Qualcomm 9150 Cellular Vehicle-to-Everything chipset solution.
This marks the industry's first production vehicle achieving 100% validation of driving assistance warning in multiple LTE-V2X communication scenarios. It has now become the world's first commercialized vehicle to feature LTE-V2X technology, combining superior performance with zero emissions.
Viral Reception and Player Excitement
A viral video shared on Yenikoy Motors' official Instagram account captured the moment players received their luxury vehicles. The caption confirmed: "Fully electric luxury SUV Hongqi E-HS9 was offered to Galatasaray footballers until the end of the season. Combining superior technology, zero emissions and high performance, the E-HS9 will give players a sustainable and distinguished driving experience."
Victor Osimhen will receive his Hongqi E-HS9 upon returning to Turkey after the international break. This comes just five months after the Nigerian star acquired a 2025 Rolls-Royce Cullinan valued at approximately N900 million, demonstrating his growing collection of luxury vehicles.
The 2025 Rolls-Royce Cullinan boasts a 6.75-liter V12 engine generating 563 horsepower, featuring premium leather interiors, handcrafted wood trims, and state-of-the-art infotainment systems that have made it a favorite among elite athletes worldwide.
