As mentioned, the GS8 is the brand’s entry to the large SUV category. That said, car buyers of the GS8 can certainly expect a generous amount of cabin space with its three-row seven-seat configuration. The GS8’s second row is said to be the most spacious and comfortable in its class, as per the brand, and definitely one of the essential features of this perfect family car.

Knowing that space is one of the main reasons why most car buyers prefer the large SUVs, GAC Motor has obviously taken this into consideration by giving the GS8 its strategic interior dimensions. Giving consumers the great benefit of ample space, the GS8 comes with a supersize flat-bottom trunk which enables you to flexibly load up your precious cargo.

While respective mobile brands are reinforcing its phones with wireless connectivity, GAC Motor has taken a step ahead by installing its GS8 with a wireless mobile phone charger. With the GS8, car buyers can say goodbye to the bothersome usage of charging chords.

Translating everything into performance, the GS8’s beating heart is a small yet mighty 2.0L gasoline turbo engine that is paired with six-speed automatic transmission. It is capable of producing a healthy number of 198 hp @ 5,200 rpm and 320 Nm @ 1,750 rpm. Moreover, GAC Motor added a Smart Start-Stop Technology on the GS8, for a more efficient cruise on the road. The GS8 also comes with four-wheel independent suspension in six driving modes, allowing it to endure any terrain.

Overall, the GS8 is built to impress and meet such customer expectation. With its entry to the Philippine automotive scene, GAC Motor is inching its way in a potentially massive market with a good approach: highly specced large SUV that is priced quite reasonably. Creating its own benchmark which could distinctively withstand or better yet, the GS8 could certainly compete well with its mainstream comrades such as the Ford Explorer and Mazda CX-9.
