Voyah, the premium EV brand under Dongfeng Motor, has officially unveiled the Taishan X8, a massive five-seat flagship SUV. Built to compete directly with the Li Auto L7 and AITO M7, the Taishan X8 arrives with a spec sheet that pushes the boundaries of current EV technology, highlighted by an ultra-advanced 896-line LiDAR system and Huawei’s next-generation smart cabin.
Massive Dimensions, Elegant Design
The Taishan X8 is a towering presence. Measuring 5,200mm long, 2,025mm wide, and 1,814mm tall with a 3,090mm wheelbase, it offers a sprawling 6.1 square meters of cabin space. The exterior features a closed front grille with subtle vertical elements, sleek flush door handles, and a continuous rear light bar.
Next-Level Tech: 896-Line LiDAR + Huawei Cabin
Voyah CEO Lu Fang confirmed the X8 will utilize a groundbreaking 896-line dual-optical image-grade LiDAR combined with three solid-state LiDARs. This hardware suite provides unprecedented resolution for autonomous driving, allowing the vehicle to “see” with near-photographic clarity.
Inside, the X8 will be the first vehicle to launch with Huawei’s newest generation smart cabin, ensuring seamless integration with smartphones and a buttery-smooth interface.
Zero-Gravity Luxury for Rear Passengers
Because it is a strict five-seater rather than a cramped three-row SUV, the second row is where the magic happens. It features dual “Zero-Gravity” VIP seats that recline up to 145 degrees, offer 200mm of sliding travel, and feature an industry-first mechanical kneading massage system with 32 points covering from the neck to the calves.
Two Powertrains: 800V BEV or PHEV
The Taishan X8 will be available in two distinct powertrains:
- PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid): A 1.5T engine acting as a generator, paired with dual motors (up to 150kW front / 230kW rear). Pure EV range reaches up to 310km, with a depleted-battery fuel consumption of just 6.5L/100km.
- BEV (Pure Electric): A massive 120kWh battery pack running on an 800V high-voltage platform with 5C ultra-fast charging capabilities.
Why This Matters
The Voyah Taishan X8 proves the Chinese EV arms race is far from over. By combining industry-leading LiDAR hardware with Huawei software and a massive 120kWh battery option, it establishes a new benchmark for what a luxury tech SUV should offer. Pricing is expected to start around ¥300,000 (approx. $41,400 USD).
