New Electric Vehicle GL8 Testing Photos Leaked
A series of testing photos for a pure electric version of the Chevrolet GL8 has been leaked, and they provide a glimpse into what to expect when the car enters production. The information suggests that the vehicle will be manufactured on the CUE (Car Evaluation Unit) platform, with pricing set in the range of 35.99-41.99 yuan ($5,300-$6,500 USD).
The electric version is expected to cost more than its plug-in hybrid counterpart. This makes it a competitor to other high-end pure electric vehicles such as the Great Wall Ora X9, Geely's Boyue 009 EV, and Tencent D9.
The testing photos show that the exterior design of the new vehicle will have a distinct appearance from its plug-in cousin but shares some commonalities. Specifically:
The front is equipped with angular, LED light bars, similar to that seen in existing plug-ins. This feature emphasizes sharp contrast and adds a sporty feel to the overall aesthetic.
Closed side rail styling indicates that features such as power sunroofs, premium interior trimwork, and a range of comfort technologies will be included in this new line-up.
When viewed from sides, we see an embossed logo bearing "BEV," denoting it’s electric drive system powered by Iron Phosphate Batteries which are more environmentally friendly compared to other options used elsewhere. This signifies high-performance capabilities while minimizing the overall weight for better range figures.
This gives us a glimpse of the future where cutting-edge auto technology merges seamlessly into style, leaving nothing short of exhilaration on all fronts.
We will continue to monitor and report any updates regarding this car model’s release date, feature set, and other essential details that impact performance or specifications of its production version.
