GAC M8 Is The Latest Luxury MPV From China With A Massive Grille | Carscoops carscoops ⚠️
with small-diameter wheels, a large greenhouse, and sliding doors. The bodywork however is more sculpted than other models from the same segment. The rear end with the massive tailgate gets fancy LED taillights, a chrome skirt, and a prominent rear wing. The GAC M8 is larger than its predecessor, measuring 5,212 mm long, 1,893 mm wide, and 1,823 mm tall, with a generous wheelbase of 3,070 mm .
The interior represents the most striking upgrade over the previous generation in terms of design, materials, and tech. The highlight is the 14.6-inch infotainment touchscreen, joined by a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster. The high-mounted center console has an illuminated gearknob, matching the color of the ambient lighting.There are two available themes for the cabin – a more discreet black and white combination and the fancier “Royal Opera” with red, gold, and white shades.
The company didn’t announce the detailed specifications of the powertrains, but said it will offer the M8 in petrol-only, full hybrid, and plug-in hybrid guises, just like the previous generation. The electrified variants will use the tried-and-tested Toyota Hybrid System, most likely in combination with a locally-produced 2.0-liter engine.
GAC has high hopes for the new M8, as the first generation is one of the segment’s best-sellers with more than 200,000 units sold. The second generation will be available in China from November 2022.
