The online car market has obtained the ideal L8 (X02) real picture, and the new car will be put into production in October, and the maximum production capacity will remain at 20,000 units/month. L8 is smaller than L9 (X01) and is closer to the ideal ONE. In terms of price, it is expected that the ideal L8 will sell at 350,000 yuan, which is 100,000 yuan cheaper than the L9 (or 450,000 yuan). From the perspective of the production capacity and price of new cars, the L8 will replace the ideal ONE in the future and be introduced to the market as the brand's main sales model.
Judging from the renderings, the ideal L8 continues the design language of the L9, with a closed grille on the front face, a square side shape, and a hidden door handle. The new car has a simple rear design and is equipped with a through-type tail light set, which is fully recognizable at night.
In terms of power, the ideal L8 will be based on the second-generation extender platform, or follow the power of the L9, that is, Brilliance Xinchen Power 1.5T four-cylinder engine matched with the Great Wall Honeycomb drive motor, and the parameters are better than the 1.2T three-cylinder Ideal ONE. For consumers who want to buy the ideal ONE, they may wish to wait for the ideal L8 to be put into production in October, which is more cost-effective.
