Maextro, the premium automotive marque under Harmony Intelligent Driving, will officially launch their top-of-the-line luxury sedan, the S800, tomorrow on 30 May. Positioned as China’s most advanced large luxury sedan, the S800 combines cutting-edge technology with opulent design to directly challenge high-end international offerings like the Mercedes-Maybach S-Class.
Co-developed by Huawei and former Nio contract manufacturer JAC, the S800 is Maextro’s first production model and will be available with all-electric and extended range (EREV) powertrains. It measures 5,480L × 2,000W × 1,536H mm, with a 3,370-mm wheelbase. Four-wheel steering gives the long sedan an impressive minimum turning radius of just 3.8 meters in specialized modes. A crab-walk function allows lateral movement of up to 16 degrees.
Dimension of the S800 promises a spacious interior and a refined driving experience.
Three interior color themes will be offered: purple and white, brown and white, and a full brown heritage trim. A triple-screen panoramic dashboard, HUD, and digital side mirrors integrated into the doors add futuristic flair. Interior materials include nappa leather, handcrafted wood, and crystal accents.
Rear-seat comfort is a highlight, with an executive four-seat layout, massage and ventilation, and a starlight panoramic roof. A hidden ‘Connoisseur Suite’ includes dual wireless charging pads, fold-out worktables, a temperature-controlled wine chiller, and a compressor fridge. There’s a dual-layer air purification system.
The launch also marks the introduction of six intelligent systems, including three world-firsts: the Maextro Turing Chassis Pro, an AI-powered adaptive suspension platform; the Guardian Angel Safety System, a full-surround active safety suite; and Starlink 5G+ Satellite Communication, developed with Huawei to maintain seamless connectivity.
