Both variants come with a comprehensive support package that comprises a 6-year/150,000 km warranty, 7 free scheduled maintenance sessions and an 8-year warranty for the hybrid components.
The Dual Mode Off-Road (DMO) powertrain consists of a hybrid-specific 2.0-litre turbocharged inline-four engine that brings 197 PS and 350 Nm of torque. Working alongside it are two electric motors, one on each axle. The front unit makes 272 PS and 360 Nm of torque while the rear delivers 408 PS and 400 Nm of torque.
Tallying up everything brings the total system output to 578 PS and 760 Nm of torque, which makes it good for a century sprint time of 4.8 seconds.
There is a 36.8 kWh Blade battery that feeds the electric motors and offers around 100 km of electric range under the WLTP cycle. Coupled with the 91-litre fuel tank and a fully charged battery, the B8 should be capable of 905 km of range.
Charging for the battery is up to 120 kW DC with AC charging the standard of 11 kW. It is also capable of vehicle-to-load (V2L) up to 6.6 kW.
One of the B8’s main features is the DiSus-P hydraulic suspension that possesses 140 mm of ride height adjustment. This allows the standard water wading depth of 800 mm to increase up to be increased to 890 mm. Raising the ride height also increases the approach and departure angles to 34 and 35 degrees respectively. The suspension can be raised or lowered from the boot as well.
It measures in at 5,195 mm long, 1,994 mm wide and 1,905 mm tall with a wheelbase of 2,920 mm. This makes the B8 larger than the already imposing GWM Tank 500. The wheels are 20-inch black Y-spoke alloy wheels, an inch smaller than what is offered in China.
On the inside, the B8 can be had with Jasper Brown or Onyx Black leather upholstery. There is a massive 17.3-inch touchscreen infotainment display with a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster for the driver.
Other cabin amenities include twin 50 W Qi wireless chargers, power-adjustable front seats (heating, ventilation, massage function), a heated and cooled armrest storage (mini-fridge) and an 18-speaker Devialet audio system. For some added drama, the gear selector rises when the B8 is started and is accompanied by crystal-like switches for various powertrain functions.
The flagship Premium variant gets second-row massage captain’s chairs with ottomans and Nappa leather upholstery.
As for the Standard, the second-row is power-reclinable with heating and ventilation. There is even a multi-function switch on the rear doors for occupants to control the window or sunroof blind on the other side.
Essentially, the second and third rows can be folded or raises electrically, with boot space climbing from a minimum of 147 litres to a maximum of 920 litres (902 litres for the six-seater).
You can catch the B8 at Bangsar Shopping Centre’s main concourse from 22-24 May 2026.
