IM LS8 Pre-sales Start at RMB 259,800, Bringing Flagship LS9 Tech to Mid-Size Segment

[New Vehicle Launch] The IM LS8 has commenced pre-sales with a starting price of RMB 259,800, featuring a wheelbase of 3,060 mm, and positioned as offering "the experience of a flagship 9-series model at the price of a 7-series."

Core Strategy: Flagship Features Trickle Down to Target Niche Segments Precisely

The IM LS8 inherits core hardware from the LS9, standardizing bi-directional four-wheel steering with up to 24° rear steering angle, a 66 kWh extended-range battery system, and LiDAR-assisted driving. It achieves a turning radius of just 4.85 meters, balancing agility and high-speed stability.

Key Specifications: Superior Space and Range

With a 3,060 mm wheelbase, rear legroom exceeds two fist-widths for a passenger 182 cm tall. It delivers 430 km of pure electric range and a combined range of 1,605 km. The trunk can accommodate six 28-inch suitcases or an unfolded stroller directly.

Strategic Foundation: Positioning as an 8-Series to Attract Premium Users

By retaining flagship-level front-row experiences, optimizing practicality with a 5-seat layout, and bringing down premium features—including a B&O sound system (25 speakers / 3,472 watts), 4D massage seats, and graphene-based underfloor heating—the LS8 achieves a high perceived value at its price point.
