Here goes another sign of switching to electric mobility.
Managing daily family travel involves balancing tight morning schedules with longer weekend drives. The GAC E8 HEV addresses these demands as a self-charging hybrid MPV. By pairing electric drive responsiveness with flexible seating, it offers a functional daily driver that avoids the need for plug-in charging infrastructure.
A Flexible Interior Designed for Varying Cargo
Behind the wheel, handling daily errands often comes down to interior flexibility.
The cabin features 18 seating configurations using a flat-stowing third row. As a result, drivers can easily switch between carrying seven passengers and hauling large items, expanding rear cargo volume from 345 liters up to 1,917 liters. Additionally, during extended traffic delays or roadside stops, Tea Break Mode converts the third row into a rear-facing lounge area.
Quiet Highway Performance PLUS Interior Comfort
On the open road, the hybrid powertrain operates quietly while delivering 300 Nm of torque from its electric motor.
Consequently, acceleration feels steady and linear, avoiding abrupt gear shifts or high engine noise. Inside, second-row passengers receive independent captain’s seats with available ventilation, massage features, and leg rests.
Meanwhile, drivers can manage navigation through the 14.6-inch touchscreen with Apple CarPlay, supported by seven USB ports across all three rows. Furthermore, the hybrid system enables over 1,000 kilometers of driving range on a single 60-liter tank.
A Straightforward Transition to Hybrid Ownership
Adopting a hybrid vehicle does not require altering daily refueling habits or installing home charging units. The E8 HEV offers lower fuel consumption alongside a standard 5-year or 150,000 km basic warranty, plus an 8-year or 150,000 km warranty for the power battery and motor.
Currently, introductory pricing starts at ₱1,778,000, compared to the standard starting SRP of ₱1,858,000.
