Keep reading to find out more about the JAECOO J8 and how you can experience it for yourself. 

ONE CAR, TWO VARIANTS

This new flagship arrives with two variants: the JAECOO J8 Two-Wheel Drive (2WD) and the JAECOO J8 All-Wheel Drive (AWD). The 2WD features a five-seater configuration, while the range-topping AWD offers a six-seater cabin with premium captain seats in the second row, including a ‘Queen Seat’ for enhanced comfort. As an added bonus, the AWD also comes equipped with massage functions for the ultimate luxury experience. While the 2WD version offers three drive modes — Normal, Eco, and Sport — the AWD boasts seven: Eco, Normal, Sport, Sand, Mud, Snow, and Off-road.

Both variants were made to provide the most comfortable of drives, no matter the distance. Not to mention, the AWD variant can still maintain your first-class-level comfort, while navigating all sorts of terrain from the city road to the gravel paths. Its power comes from the 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine that is capable of producing up to 249 hp and 385 Nm of torque.

OFF-ROAD PERFORMANCE 

The ruggedness of off-road driving meets first-class luxury with the JAECOO J8. It offers exceptional stability and control across a range of terrains, adapting to the inclines, surfaces, and weather conditions effortlessly. 

This is all thanks to its Continuous Damping Control (CDC), Dynamic Torque Vectoring, and 450mm wading depth. It also boasts an impressive seven drive modes, so you can choose the exact specifications and functions that will suit your driving conditions or preferences—all without losing its luxurious touch. The spacious cabin also allows for all passengers to stay safe and comfortable while navigating the terrains. 

BOLD INSIDE AND OUT

Soft-close doors, ventilated captain seats with massage functions, and ambient lighting aren’t the typical features you’d find in an off-road vehicle. That’s why the JAECOO J8 isn’t here to be your run-of-the-mill off-road SUV. It’s here as your luxe companion through thick and thin, road and gravel, rain or shine. 

On its exteriors, you’ll spot flush-type door handles for extra sleekness, a bold grille, a full-width tail light bar, and sporty headlights. Inside, it is nothing but plush with individual sunshades and the three aforementioned features that won’t make you feel like you’re headed for rugged roads any time soon. Each detail was crafted to make every passenger and the driver feel at ease as they fall into their premium off-road experience with the JAECOO J8.

The JAECOO J8 is available in two configurations: a standard 2WD 5-seater and a higher-spec AWD 6-seater. Pricing for the 2WD variant starts from RM178,800 and from RM198,800 for the AWD option.
