MAEXTRO S800: A Game-changer For Large Luxury Sedans
The long-awaited MAEXTRO S800 was finally officially unveiled at the Huawei Mate Brand Festival today. Pre-orders are now open, with a pre-sale price of 1 million to 1.5 million RMB.
With this Huawei Mate Brand Festival, the mystery of MAEXTRO S800 has finally been unveiled. The luxurious, grand, and steady appearance does not look dull and bulky. In addition to luxury, it also has the strongest intelligent driving assistance function in the same class of cars, which is exactly what European luxury brands lack the most today. Let’s discover the luxurious and grand design of this Huawei Mate Brand Festival revelation with KINGBODE AUTO.
New car appearance: unique personality, kingly temperament
The real car finally unveiled did not disappoint everyone, and the kingly momentum was clearly visible. The wait for so many days was finally worth it. The MAEXTRO S800 gives people the feeling of being: very big, very noble, and very bright! And the shape is very original, unlike the first car of some luxury brands, or the entire car series, which always have the shadow of others. If you really want to say who it looks like, it may be Rolls-Royce!
First of all, the body color. This kind of super luxury car must have some color, and the MAEXTRO S800 is no exception. The two-color design and the location of the two colors are also relatively conventional, but it is not suitable to use a design that is too “naughty” at this level. It is not a bad thing to be traditional.
This car does not use a vertical logo design, but a luminous flat logo embedded in it, surrounded by a cover similar to electroplated reflective material, probably for pedestrian safety. Although there is no vertical logo, the entire logo looks very technological and not cliché. The position of the “center grid” on the front of the car looks relatively upright. Although such a design will increase the wind resistance coefficient, luxury cars need to have the demeanor of luxury cars, and the streamlined design loses the aura that a luxury car should have. In the “luxury car feeling” part, it is obvious that the MAEXTRO S800 has a good grasp of it, it is imposing, but not old-fashioned.
Headlights are also a selling point. Once upon a time, Audi could no longer be a lighting manufacturer, because domestic cars are now playing with lights more vividly. The headlight part can be understood as two symmetrical “C” shapes. The upper light group does not use the through-type design that everyone uses. The interior of the light source of the upper and lower parts is similar to the cutting shape of the BMW 7 Series, and you can see the rich details of the multi-module. The headlight group in the middle is divided into three parts, surrounded by the details of the galaxy that surrounds the depth. The reason why this effect can be achieved is mainly due to the continuous advancement of lighting technology. Effects that were difficult to achieve in the past can now be achieved, and the manufacturer builds cars regardless of cost.
As for the side shape, it is simply big, with the “sense of courage” that a D-class luxury car should have! You don’t have to worry about losing face to others when driving out. From the appearance, you can also find that the rear door is very long, and I believe the rear space must be very exaggerated. The vehicle door handle is semi-hidden and very long. The front two-thirds are embedded, which is convenient for reaching in to open the door. The back half may be a touch-sensitive area. The semi-hidden door handle also uses the elements of the Milky Way inside, and the starlight surrounds you when you reach out to open the door. The body size is 5480mm×2000mm×1536mm, and the wheelbase reaches 3370mm.
The C-pillar adopts a fastback design, but does not use a hollow C-pillar design, so it still retains the feature of a top luxury car’s C-pillar that is very wide, finding a perfect balance between streamline and stability.
The rear of the MAEXTRO S800 also adopts a simple and elegant shape. The overall appearance is square with a rounded shape, presenting a relatively round and thick visual effect. The taillight adopts a large-size through-shaped shape, and there are no complicated contour lines. The entire light group is decorated with stars. The English letters MAEXTRO are located on the surface of the shell, forming a dislocated relationship with the starlight effect and having a strong sense of visual depth. There is also a camera under the taillight, and on both sides are the words “JAC Motors” and “MAEXTRO S800”. In addition, the rectangular license plate frame is still located under the rear of the car, with chrome embellishments and reflective strips on both sides.
Interior spoiler: two independent luxury seats in the back
In addition, the official also spoiled the interior details of the new car. The back row will have two independent seats and a starry sky roof. It is expected that the front row may be similar to the M9, with a three-screen interior design. Natural materials, every detail has been polished through hundreds of processes.
Highlight technology of the new car: Iterative intelligent driving and Tuling platform
The new car will have 8 major features including super cruise, super mobility, super information perception, super privacy, earth-sky network connection, artificial intelligence assistance, active protection system, and super reliability. In addition, the new car will adopt L3 intelligent driving architecture design and Tuling 2 Longxing platform in the future.
The debut of Hongmeng Intelligent Driving S800 represents that the car-making technology of Chinese brands has reached a higher level. The D-class car market, which was previously dominated by German brands, can be said to have no rivals worldwide, including Lexus, which wanted to subvert the luxury car industry back then. In this level, German cars cannot cause any pressure, but the debut of the S800 will, I believe, make German rivals feel a certain amount of pressure, especially in the experience of smart driving and smart cabins. Chinese brands, especially products under Hongmeng Intelligent Driving, do have the momentum to “redefine luxury.”
