Huawei Maextro S800 The Most ADVANCED LUXURY Sedan in the World?!
Bro, I don’t know who told Huawei they were allowed to cook like this, but they cooked hard. In a world where your luxury car still opens doors like a peasant, Huawei said, “Nah, watch this.” Meet the Max S800. The luxury sedan that doesn’t just challenge the Maybach, it walks right up, adjusts its tie, crab walks sideways, and steals the Maybach’s parking spot. We’ve got 43 speakers, a starry sky roof, zero gravity recliners, and tech so advanced I swear this thing could file your taxes if it wanted to. Its 800 volt architecture can pump its battery from 10% to 80% in a claimed 12 minutes. That’s enough range to drive from New York City to Richmond, Virginia, charged up before you even finish your donut. The Western automakers, they’re still trying to figure out how to put a decent cup holder in the back seat. This, my friends, is why I’m looking over at the Chinese tech landscape with a heavy dose of pure unadulterated envy. Welcome to Wheel Factor. And trust me, you are not ready for this. All right, let’s talk first impressions because the Maxro S800 doesn’t just make one, it delivers a swift, expensive looking punch to the face of the luxury establishment. Just look at this thing. It’s not just a big car. It’s a 5.48 48 m long, 2.0 m wide land yacht. For my American folks, that’s over 215 in, making it longer than a Mercedes Maybach S-Class. The sheer scale is ridiculous. Up front, the face is absolutely dominating. It manages to be futuristic yet stately. You get that fully closed arrow optimized grill panel because, hey, it’s mostly an EV, but the drama comes from the lights. These aren’t just headlights. They’re dual megapixel intelligent lighting systems. We’re talking about an array that can project welcome patterns onto the ground and reportedly act like a tiny movie projector. It’s the kind of over-the-top brilliant flex that makes you wonder what your $150,000 European sedan is actually doing with all its LEDs. Below that, the bumper is clean, minimalist, and perfectly sculpted to cheat the wind, giving it a drag coefficient of just 0.206 CD. That’s slipperier than a Model S, which is just crazy for a car this large. Peeking out from the roof line, you can clearly see the LAR sensor pod, the tech brain of this beast. Now, the profile, it’s got that majestic couplike roof line that sweeps back elegantly, but without sacrificing the interior volume. We’ll get to that in a minute. The wheels are massive, 20 or 21 in, and they’re multis-spoke works of art. But the true party trick on the side, the doors. These are not just soft clothes. They are power operated smart doors that can open up to a massive 77° angle. And here’s the kicker. They use those millimeter radar and LAR sensors to automatically adjust their angle to avoid smashing into the car or pillar next to you. Say goodbye to the anxiety of parking in a tight spot. And of course, we have the flush fitting door handles, the modern luxury essential. The sheer attention to detail from the chrome accents to the subtly curved side glass is genuinely Maybach level. If a Rolls-Royce and a Tesla had a baby, and that baby was raised by a brilliant tech engineer from Shenzhen, this is what you’d get. Around the back, it’s all about wit and clean lines. The tail lights are a single continuous ultra thin LED light bar that spans the entire width of the car, giving it that instantly recognizable modern signature at night. The bumper is sleek. housing just enough silver trim to hint at its opulence without screaming, “Look at me.” And because this is the future, there are no aggressive exhaust tips, just clean arrow design, which is almost depressing for a gear head like me. But I have to respect the clean look. Honestly, the styling is so good, so confident that it makes Western luxury sedans feel a little bit yesterday. But look, I can stand out here all day talking about fancy paint and big wheels, but I know why you’re really here. You want to see the future of luxury, and trust me, you haven’t seen anything yet. If you want to see the zeroravity rear seats and the starry night ceiling that will make your jaw drop, you need to stick around. But first, do me a huge favor. Smash that like button right now if you think this exterior is better than a Mercedes S-Class, and let’s see just how jealous we should all be. Okay, let’s get into the factor part of wheel factor, the mechanics. This is where the Max S800 pulls off a fantastic one-two punch that should genuinely worry every European automaker. You get a choice of two flavors, pure EV and a sneaky and brilliant extended range electric vehicle, ERV. First, the Pure EV. This is the one built on that amazing 800V ultra highdensity platform. That’s the tech that allows for that insane 12minut 10 to 80% charge time and can give you up to 702 km or 436 mi of CLTC range from its 97 kWh battery. The topsp spec EV comes with three electric motors pushing out a mindblowing combined output of 852 horsepower. That’s a luxury sedan that can hit 0 to 100 km an hour, 0 to 62 mph in a blistering 4.3 seconds. This isn’t just fast. This is did I accidentally buy a supercar fast. But for the purists and the range anxious, there’s the ERV version, the extended range electric vehicle. This is arguably the smartest play. It combines a smaller battery around 65 kW hours with a highly efficient 1.5 L turbocharged engine that acts only as a generator. It doesn’t drive the wheels, it just makes electricity. This gives you an allect electric range of about 400 km or 250 mi for your daily commute, plus the flexibility of the gas engine generator, kicking in for long road trips, resulting in a total combined range of up to 1,333 km or over 828 mi. That means you can drive from Los Angeles to Salt Lake City without breaking a sweat or even stopping to charge if you don’t want to. It’s the ultimate zero anxiety luxury cruiser. And even the EREV tri motor version has a bonkers 106 horsepower. Seriously, these numbers are from a time machine. We’re still over here debating the merits of a 48vt mild hybrid while they’re pushing a,000 horsepower luxury sedans. It’s a tough pill to swallow, folks. Now, when you talk about high performance luxury, safety is non-negotiable. Huawei is a tech company first, and they have thrown the entire Silicon Valley playbook at this car. The Maxro S800 is built on an integrated intelligent digital chassis platform, which basically means its brain is constantly calculating everything. First, the physical stuff. The body structure is a bespoke ultra high strength steel and aluminum mix featuring a fourlock safety system and reportedly 13 airbags covering every possible angle, including one between the front passengers. This is the new gold standard for passive safety. But the real magic is in the active safety, which is their signature HW AADS4 system. Remember that LAR on the roof? That’s part of a massive sensor suite, including multiple radars and cameras over 32 ADAS sensors in total that allow for high-level semiautonomous driving. It can navigate city streets, manage lane changes, and handle highway driving. It even features a road perception system that uses the ADAS sensors to detect upcoming slippery or bumpy road conditions and adjust the active suspension, steering, and torque distribution in advance. It’s not reacting to a bump, it’s preparing for it. The Xotion body control system works with the dualchamber air suspension and multiode all-wheel steering to virtually eliminate body roll, lift, and dive. At speed, this behemoth handles like a nimble sports sedan. Plus, their smart safety features even extend to the doors, preventing them from hitting obstacles. It’s a holistic safety suite that’s genuinely revolutionary, making it a fortress of tech and steel. All right, take a deep breath because we are stepping into the actual reason this car exists. The exterior is a tuxedo, but the interior is a palace. This is where the envy truly kicks in. We aren’t just in a car. We’re in a smart luxury ecosystem. This is the part that will make you look at your nice new German sedan and wonder why you didn’t wait. Let’s start where you want to be, the back seat. Forget first class. This is a zerogravity experience. The two individual executive seats are not just recliners. They are 20way power adjustable thrones wrapped in semianoline chrome-free tanned leather offering up to 148.5° of recline. They heat, they cool, and they feature a 20point multiode massage system. But the Trink is the sleep detection mode that monitors your posture and breathing to adjust the climate and seat position for optimal rest. My pillow can’t even do that. Dividing this opulent space is the executive island center console, your personal command station, which is where the magic and my envy really lives. Right above you, integrated into the ceiling, is a massive motorized 40in 2K laser projection screen that retracts when not needed. But when it’s down, coupled with the light blocking side and rear electric curtains, it creates a true private cinema experience. With the 43 speaker 2920 watt Huawei Sound Ultimate system, creating independent audio zones thanks to four speakers built into each headrest. You can be watching a movie at concert volume while the driver is listening to a podcast, all without headphones. Inside the console, you have a dual zone temperature-cont controlled compressor refrigerator, not a cheap thermo electric cooler, capable of chilling drinks down to -6° C or 21° F for your champagne or warming them up to plus 50° C or 122° F for a tea or coffee. And for your actual valuables, there’s a fingerprint secured safe hidden away in there. The console also features heated and cooled cup holders, dual 50watt active cooled wireless charging pads, and a full-size folding aviation tray table complete with a built-in makeup mirror. And all major controls are managed by a detachable touchscreen remote integrated into the door panel, allowing you to control the seat, climate, lighting, and privacy glass with one hand. This is where Huawei, the tech giant, really flexes its muscles with smart, subtle technology. You don’t need to press a button to darken the mood. You can simply wave your hand across the side window to instantly activate the electrochromic privacy glass, darkening it within milliseconds. You can even use a simple hand gesture to automatically close the power door as you get out. Up front, the triple screen panoramic display houses the Harmony Alps 2.0 0 cockpit system, the fastest, smoothest interface you can imagine. And it’s complemented by the massive 76 in augmented reality head-up display, ARUD, that projects driving data right onto the road ahead, making your navigation look like something from a video game. The luxury materials are insane. Featuring hand polished crystal elements on the drive selector, full grain semianoline leather, and imported high-grade wood trim, where the grain is seamlessly aligned across all panels, a detail only seen on cars costing a4 million more. From the gesture controlled privacy dimming to the active noise cancellation system that keeps the cabin at a whisper quiet 56.7 dB, the Max S800 is not just a car. It’s a dedicated, personalized sanctuary on wheels, and it’s making me genuinely resent these simple cup holders in my own vehicle. And I’m pretty sure I’m going to need to buy a pair of white gloves just to sit in this thing. Seriously, if you could only pick one feature, the zero gravity seat, the 43 speaker sound system, or the starlight ceiling, which one would it be? Let me know in the comments below. We need to know what you think of this space age interior. Okay, so we’ve established this car is a limousine, but can a limo be practical? The S800, even in its most executive four-seater trim, is surprisingly usable. With a length of over 215 in, you know, the cabin space is enormous. That’s the whole point. Even the 5-seater version is packed with luxury, offering a massive amount of rear legroom that would comfortably seat three NBA players. As for the trunk, while the final volume figures vary depending on the version, EV versus ERRV, you’re dealing with a large accessible cargo area, perfect for multiple sets of golf clubs or a week’s worth of luggage. The practicality is also in the details. The cooled, heated cup holders are perfect for a family road trip if you’re a family rich enough for this car. The rear armrest has those little folding tables that are perfect for kids with tablets or for getting some work done on the go. While a six-seater luxury SUV like the Ayito M9 might be slightly more familyfriendly in the traditional sense, the S800 offers unparalleled executive luxury and comfort. It’s practical for a CEO’s family, which, let’s be honest, is the target market. So, we’ve talked about a 1,00 horsepower option, a 12minute charge time, a 43 speaker cinema, zero gravity seats, and a car that is literally bigger and more feature-packed than a Maybach. We are talking about the absolute peak of automotive engineering and rolling technological art. You’re thinking this is a $300,000 car, right? Maybe $400,000 for the tri motor version. After all, a Rolls-Royce Ghost, which this cribs a lot of luxury features from, starts at around $350,000. Well, get ready to feel that familiar sting of jealousy because the Huawei Maxro S800 starts at a price range that is going to make you mad. The initial pricing for the Maxro S800 in China before options starts at the equivalent of approximately $98,000 and tops out around $142,000 for the fully loaded versions. $98,000. That is less than a well optioned base model Porsche Tyan. It’s significantly less than a base Mercedes-Benz S-Class, let alone a Maybach. For the price of a mid-level German luxury sedan, you are getting a Chinese technological marvel that is bigger, more powerful, and has a private theater in the back seat. This is the insane price to feature ratio that’s going to shake up the entire global auto industry. This is how you win. Now, for the big question, will you buy this high techch 1,000 horsepower Maybach slang Mastro S800 or would you take a new Mercedes-Benz S500 for the same money? Let me know what you would pick. There you have it. The Huawei Maxro S800. The car that proves the future of luxury doesn’t wear a German badge. It wears the Chinese one. The tech is unbeatable. The luxury is undeniable. And the price is downright infuriatingly competitive. What do you think? Is this the future executive family car? Or is it just another future flop that will never make it to US shores?
