1 Answers
SAIC Maxus is a domestic brand under SAIC Maxus, offering a product portfolio that includes MPVs, SUVs, RVs, wide-body light passenger vehicles, and pickup trucks, catering to both passenger and commercial markets. In 2009, SAIC Group acquired LDV Company and its MAXUS brand. While preserving its complete product technology and authentic British heritage, SAIC strategically repositioned the brand based on global automotive market insights and established SAIC Maxus as a wholly-owned subsidiary in 2011. Taking the SAIC Maxus V80 as an example: it is a light passenger vehicle launched by SAIC Maxus, with dimensions of 4950mm in length, 1998mm in width, and 2070mm in height. It is equipped with a 2.5T turbocharged engine, delivering a maximum power of 136kW and a peak torque of 330Nm.
