It is expected to be listed in the fourth quarter, and Equation Leopard 8 will be unveiled.

On August 30th, 2024 Chengdu Auto Show officially kicked off. At the exhibition, we can also find that many new cars have appeared one after another, among which Equation Leopard 8 is also one of the products with high attention in the auto show. According to relevant data, this product is expected to be officially listed in the fourth quarter.

I believe everyone will be familiar with the appearance design of the new car. After all, the real picture of the car was published on the Internet early, and the new car also continued the design language of "Future Star Ship Aesthetics" of the equation Leopard family, and benefited from the 5195/1994/1875 (including the roof rack 1905)mm and the wheelbase of 2920 mm. Compared with the equation Leopard 5, the overall design of Leopard 8 has also become more.

In addition, it can be found from the exhibition car that the roof is also equipped with a lidar kit similar to looking up at U8. Not long ago, BYD’s brand Equation Leopard and Huawei officially signed a cooperation agreement in the field of intelligent driving in Shenzhen. This cooperation is based on the long-term strategic cooperation between the two groups, aiming at in-depth joint research and development of intelligent driving technology for Equation Leopard cars owned by BYD.

Equation Leopard 8 is also equipped with Huawei’s Gankun Intelligent Driving ADS 3.0 system. With Huawei’s blessing, it is also foreseeable that the new car will have excellent performance in intelligent driving in the future.

It’s a pity that this time Equation Leopard 8 didn’t open its interior, but the official interior map of the car has been published online before, which also adopts family-style design and provides 6-seat and 7-seat versions. However, as a flagship product, what we still need to pay attention to at this stage is the matching of materials in the car. According to BYD’s consistent style, the real car will meet us formally soon.

In terms of hardware, the car is also built on the DMO platform, and it can be found from its trailer that the new car will also be equipped with the Yunqi -P body control system. In addition, the new car will also be equipped with a 2.0T plug-in hybrid system, in which the maximum power of the engine is 200kW, and the power of the front and rear double motors is 200kW/300kW respectively, and it is equipped with a non-loaded body and three differential locks.

Write to the end

From its positioning, it can be found that Equation Leopard 8, as the future flagship of the brand, is definitely a strong player, especially after the blessing of Huawei’s intelligent driving system, which also makes the new car have stronger product competitiveness. In the domestic new energy automobile market, the mid-to-high-end new energy off-road vehicles mainly compete with Equation Leopard brand. From the perspective of body size and dynamic performance, Equation Leopard 8′ s main competitors should be tank brand’s 500 series and 700 series new energy vehicles.
