MAEXTRO S800 Grand Design
The pinnacle of the Huawei-backed “HIMA” (Harmony Intelligent Mobility Alliance) ecosystem is reaching new heights. Recently, the MAEXTRO S800 Grand Design (High-End Custom Edition) was officially filed with China’s MIIT. Positioned to compete with the likes of Maybach and Rolls-Royce, this bespoke version adds a layer of “regal prestige” to an already formidable flagship.
Bespoke Aesthetics: The “Grand Design” Touch
The Grand Design edition distinguishes itself with exclusive aesthetic enhancements that scream opulence:
- Golden Accents: The front hood features a 3D golden decorative strip, complemented by a prominent golden brand emblem.
- Exclusive Branding: Custom “Grand Design” identifiers are placed on the front fenders and C-pillars.
- Exterior Finish: The vehicle retains its signature two-tone body paint and ultra-luxury “pie-dish” style wheels, now featuring intricate golden detailing.
- Premium Rubber: It comes equipped with high-end Arisun tires, optimized for silent cruising and comfort.
Immense Presence: Larger than a Maybach S-Class
The MAEXTRO S800 isn’t just a car; it’s a moving palace. Its dimensions place it firmly in the ultra-luxury segment:
- Length: 5,480 mm
- Width: 2,000 mm
- Height: 1,536 / 1,542 mm
- Wheelbase: 3,370 mm
- Seating: An exclusive 4-seat layout designed for ultimate executive comfort and privacy.

Perfect for long-distance travel without range anxiety, the EREV model features a sophisticated tri-motor setup:

- Drive System: Triple Motors with outputs of 160 kW, 237.5 kW, and 237.5 kW respectively.
- Electric Range: 276 km (WLTC), one of the longest pure-electric ranges in the EREV luxury segment.
2. Pure Electric (BEV) Version
The all-electric variant focuses on silent, effortless power delivery:
- Drive System: Dual Huawei-sourced motors.
- Power Output: 160 kW (Front) and 230 kW (Rear).
Market Impact
The MAEXTRO S800 is the most ambitious project yet from the Huawei-JAC partnership. By launching the “Grand Design” bespoke edition, MAEXTRO is directly targeting the “ultra-high-net-worth” market, offering a tech-heavy, intelligent alternative to traditional European luxury icons.
