Why is the GL8ES so much more expensive than the GL8?
1 Answers
GL8ES is significantly more expensive than the GL8 primarily because it offers advantages in terms of exterior design, power, and suspension. The GL8ES is a new luxury business travel vehicle with a relatively higher price point and a more premium grade. In contrast, the GL8 Business Travel 25S version is a minor facelift of the previous-generation business vehicle, equipped with a new 2.5-liter engine but with significantly lower configurations compared to the ES, such as the absence of a panoramic sunroof, ACC, heads-up display, electric footrests, etc. Below is an introduction to the new GL8: Power: Equipped with a brand-new 2.0T turbocharged engine, this engine delivers a maximum power of 191 kW and a maximum torque of 350 Nm, with a maximum power speed of 5400 rpm and a maximum torque range of 2000 to 5000 rpm. Technology: This engine features direct fuel injection technology and uses an aluminum alloy cylinder head and block. It is paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission.
