3 Answers
GAC GS8 is the largest. Below is an introduction to the GAC SUV GS8: GAC GS8: The vehicle's length, width, and height are 4835 mm, 1910 mm, and 1765 mm respectively, with a wheelbase of 2800 mm; the GS8 is a mid-size SUV, featuring a large body size and spacious interior cabin. GAC GS8 Configuration: The 2020 GS8 is equipped with a 2.0-liter turbocharged engine, paired with a 6AT transmission; the front suspension of the GS8 uses a MacPherson independent suspension, while the rear suspension employs a multi-link independent suspension; this model offers a four-wheel-drive variant, which comes with an on-demand four-wheel-drive system; the on-demand four-wheel-drive system of the GAC GS8 is based on front-wheel drive; under normal circumstances, the vehicle primarily operates in front-wheel drive, and power is only distributed to the rear wheels when the front wheels slip.
I've been keeping an eye on GAC Motor's SUVs, and when it comes to size, the GS8 definitely takes the crown. This model measures nearly 5 meters in length, with a wheelbase exceeding 2.9 meters, a width around 1.9 meters, and a height of approximately 1.78 meters—its sheer presence is impressive when you stand beside it. Inside, it features a seven-seat layout, with particularly spacious second and third rows. I test-sat it recently, and even with a family of seven, there's no feeling of crowding. The trunk is enormous, easily accommodating two large suitcases plus several backpacks without any trouble. Compared to the GS4 or GS5—the GS4 is only about 4.6 meters long, and the GS5 just under 4.8 meters—the GS8 is noticeably larger. It drives quite steadily too; despite its size, the steering isn't heavy. Parking in the city requires some skill, but you'll get the hang of it after a few tries. The 2.0T engine option makes highway cruising effortless. Overall, the GS8 is the flagship of GAC Motor's SUV lineup, ideal for buyers prioritizing spaciousness and family practicality—it's a solid choice for daily commutes and weekend getaways.
Our newly purchased GAC GS8 is surprisingly huge! With just the two of us, two kids, and grandparents, we drove to the suburbs last Saturday. Even with the back seats fully occupied, everyone was comfortable, and the cargo area still had space left after fitting in a tent, food boxes, and camping chairs. The driving experience offers an open view, like sitting on a high platform. Compared to our previous GAC GS4, the GS4 was much smaller, with cramped rear seats and a trunk that could barely fit a small suitcase. The GS8 is thoughtfully designed—its long wheelbase allows for free leg movement, and the adjustable second-row seats keep the kids from fussing in the back. Despite its size, it's agile for daily commutes, and the engine sound is deep and powerful. I think it's the big guy in GAC's SUV family, with high space utilization and strong practicality. After driving it for a while, I also noticed minimal interior noise and fewer bumps, making it a godsend for families with kids.
