Consumers can choose from single motor rear-wheel drive and dual motor four-wheel drive. All models have a top speed of 210 km/h.

Two rear-wheel drive models

• 250 kW/400 Nm electric motor
• 88.42 kWh and 100 kWh ternary lithium battery pack options, which correspond to CLTC cruising range of 610 km and 700 km, respectively

Coming to the interior, the design layout of the front cockpit is basically the same as that of the Yuanhang Y6. A large area is wrapped in leather material, providing the background against a flat-bottomed double-spoke multi-functional leather steering wheel, a 12.3-inch floating full LCD instrument, and a 17.38-inch central control screen with a vertical layout that comes with a built-in AliOS smart cockpit system.

In addition, the Yuanhang H8 also provides functional configurations such as an AR-HUD, a 27-speaker sound system, 256-color ambient lighting, a face recognition car entry system, voice recognition, and a digital rearview mirror.

In the current market, electric SUVs with similar price points to Yuanhang H8 include the AITO M9, NIO ES8, and Audi Q5 e-tron. With limited brand awareness, can Yuanhang H8 stand out in the market?
