Externally, the U8 L is distinguished by gold-accented logos, new 23-inch wheels with floating center caps, and the absence of a rear spare tire. The manufacturer has not yet revealed details about the interior but emphasizes its increased space and premium execution.
Chinese publication Autohome reports that the U8 L retains the same powertrain as the standard model: four electric motors, a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine-generator, and a 49.05 kWh battery.
Technical Features
The system output is 1,180 hp, with torque reaching 1,280 N·m. The manufacturer plans to begin production of the U8 L by the end of 2023. The estimated price is around 1.5 million yuan (over $200,000).

The manufacturer clearly targets buyers looking for more than just a luxury SUV.
