The Chinese smartphone manufacturer seems to have decided to capture some of Mercedes' customers. What you see in the pictures is not a concept or a show car. The Maextro S800 is already on sale. And that's not all. A thousand cars were bought on the first day. This is more than just a loud presentation - this is an invasion of territory that the S-Class has held for decades.
Huawei has done everything possible to make this car look like a representative of the top league. 5.48 meters long, the base is almost like a Maybach, and the design is without any hint of “another Chinese clone“. This, as the Chinese say, is the face of the future. Under the hood there is a choice: either an electric one with a range of up to 702 km, or a hybrid that will travel up to 1,333 km. Acceleration to a hundred is 4.3 seconds. But the question is not only in the numbers.
Maextro S800 really knows how to drive itself. And not in words, but in deeds. ADS 4.0 with 32 sensors and LiDAR allows you to confidently drive even on narrow city streets without the participation of a driver.
The interior is like a business class lounge on an airplane: zero gravity in the seats, massage, ventilation, speakers in the headrests and 43 audio speakers that are part of Huawei Sound. The ceiling is not just a roof, but an interactive starry sky with dynamic lighting. Inside, HarmonyOS works: voice control, gestures, driver adaptation, everything like in a smartphone, only on four wheels.
