How many people can the GL8 seat?

The GL8 can seat 7 people. Taking the 2021 GL8 as an example, it is an MPV with the following dimensions: length 5238mm, width 1878mm, height 1776mm, wheelbase 3088mm, and a curb weight of 1880kg. The 2021 GL8 features a front MacPherson independent suspension and a rear torsion beam non-independent suspension, with a front-wheel-drive layout. It is equipped with a 2.0T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 237PS, a maximum torque of 350Nm, and a maximum power of 174kW. It is paired with a 9-speed automatic transmission.

The GL8 typically seats seven people, making it especially convenient for our family to pick up the kids from school or go on outings. My wife and I sit in the front, the two kids' car seats are securely fixed in the middle row, and the third row can accommodate friends or grandparents. The space is quite spacious, with no legroom issues in the third row, and the trunk can still hold luggage. For the new GL8 Avenir, there might be a six-seat luxury version, but most models are designed with seven seats. When taking the kids out, the second row has sunshades and an entertainment system to keep the little ones entertained. Overall, seating seven people is very comfortable, making it ideal for family trips—just remember to drive slowly when turning to ensure a smooth ride.

The GL8 comes standard with a seven-seat layout, which I often use to shuttle colleagues for business trips. The seating arrangement typically consists of two front seats, two middle-row seats, and three rear seats, accommodating seven people comfortably. The middle-row seats can be adjusted for angle, and the rear has independent air conditioning vents. Compared to other MPVs like the Odyssey, the GL8 offers more spacious interiors. Even when fully loaded with clients, it doesn't feel cramped, and the trunk can still fit briefcases. Opting for the higher trim adds USB charging ports in the rear, enhancing practicality. On highways, the wind noise is minimal, maintaining good comfort, making long-distance travel hassle-free.

Most GL8 models can seat seven people. I've studied its design. The seating arrangement includes a front driver's seat and a front passenger seat, two independent sliding seats in the middle row, and a three-person bench in the back row. The interior height is sufficient, preventing head bumping. The engine maintains stable output even with multiple passengers, without affecting acceleration. For safety considerations, the rear seats are equipped with a seatbelt reminder function. Occasionally, parking can be challenging, so it's advisable to opt for the shorter wheelbase version.
