Maextro Maextro S800: range, price, specs and where it is sold
Facts checked
The Maextro S800 is the flagship of Huawei's Harmony Intelligent Mobility Alliance and the most expensive car in it. It was released on 30 May 2025 at Auto Shenzhen from RMB 708,000, with the standard range running to RMB 1,018,000. JAC Group builds it in Hefei, Anhui; Huawei co-developed the car and supplies the motors, the high-voltage architecture, the driver-assistance system and the cockpit software, and sells it through its premium retail channel.
The car is 5,480 mm long on a 3,370 mm wheelbase. Battery-electric versions use 97 kWh or, in the Grand Design, 120 kWh packs with triple-motor four-wheel drive, rated between 650 km and 780 km on CLTC. Extended-range versions use a 63.3 kWh pack with a 1.5-litre turbocharged generator engine for 340–400 km electric-only and 1,155–1,333 km combined on CLTC. Outputs run from 390 kW to 635 kW.
The 10,000th S800 came off the line in December 2025. In March 2026 Huawei opened pre-orders for the S800 and the AITO M9 with what it described as an 896-channel lidar, and in June 2026 an ultra-luxury Grand Design version was launched from RMB 1,388,000.
