Not German or British, a Chinese brand Huawei-backed Maextro is going to Launch Maextro S800 Grand Design in June. If your head is turned with the S800 sedan early model then wait for this one, it’s coming with Grand Design. Richard Yu describes the Maextro S800 launch Grand Design as transcends the ultimate and embraces a grander vision.
The S800 sales proved that Chinese-made luxury sedans can provide strong features and the Maextro next launch – S800 Grand Design will make a headline as the top ultra-luxury car in the car market.
Exterior & Richard Yu Philosophy of Maextro S800 Grand Design?
Imagine the S800’s more extravagant, dressed-up sibling with the same body size. The Grand Design is built on the same regular model — 5,480 mm in length, 2,000 mm in width and the same wheelbase of 3,370 mm but covered with an impressive look that is hard to miss.
Richard Yu, CEO Huawei’s Consumer BG shared his philosophy for the Grand Design as one that “transcends the ultimate and embraces a grander vision.” He announced the lunch details on Chinese social app Weibo with few images of the design.
The two tone color – white blends with “Far Mountain Cyan” and gold accent is something truly remarkable. It will make people say ‘Wow” and turn their heads again. Its overall impression is less “electric vehicle” and more “rolling ceremony.”
What Is The Price Of Maextro S800 Grand Design?
The Maextro S800 Grand Design price is expected around 2 million yuan ($293,580 USD), which makes it more valuable than standard S800 which already costs around 708,000 yuan and its top variant up to 1,018,000 yuan.
At the price debate, Maextro isn’t just competing with Chinese brands but also making direct targets at Rolls-Royce, Bentley, and Mercedes-Maybach. It’s a bold move but given how the standard S800 has performed, that’s not a surprise at all.
Statistical Motivation Behind The Grand Design
The regular model of S800 made a record in the selling chart and became one of China’s best-selling ultra-luxury sedans among cars priced above 700,000 yuan. It’s become the most reliable and luxury vehicle among all the sedans.
S800 became the second most popular car in the Chinese car market as deliveries hit above 17,000 units since its launch. In April 2026 alone, S800 sold over 1,100 units which indicates that actual cars are being sold and put on the road.
After successful response from the car market for the S800 since its launch, Huawei moved forward with this opportunity to launch its next model which covers a more luxurious design. It will launch in June, and market expectations for the S800 Grand Design are high.

Interior And Premium Features
Anhui Jianghuai Automobile Group and Huawei made a joint venture — Maextro which manages under Huawei’s HIMA platform. It simply implies that they will surely offer ultra premium tech features in Grand Design.
The car has a roof-mounted 896-channel LiDAR sensor which means it builds with high-end driving technology. The sensors of the car will detect objects, and create a detailed 3D map of the surroundings. Cameras built into the side pillars, helps to monitor nearby vehicles and cover angles of blind spots.
The Grand Design is equipped with Huawei’s latest safety feature Qiankun ADS 5.0 which provides features like lane keeping, automatic parking, obstacle detection, and advanced assisted driving.
Powertrain options include both BEV (battery electric) and EREV (extended range) configurations. BEV fully runs on battery with two motor systems of Huawei that provide strong performance, smooth acceleration, and better control. Meanwhile EREV includes a 1.5T range extender, a small petrol engine in electric version to provide time for the battery to recharge when needed without stopping a car.
This Launch Place Maextro In The Competition
This would be a mistake to underestimate the S800 but it is surprising that a Chinese-made sedan costing around $293,000 can compete in the luxury car market. Everyone is quite confused at first to see the trend but strong sales of the S800 prove that the car has extremely powerful features.
Chinese buyers are now willing to choose domestic brands over famous European brands like Mercedes or BMW. Brands like Maextro shifting the view of Chinese cars means they no longer sell low quality or less prestigious goods. The Grand Design takes that statement even further.
It’s not just about the features and specification, but a position to show that a Chinese brand can build something quite strong, high-quality and exclusive which can be considered as ultra-luxury. The Grand Design is the first MPV, V800 of the brand, Maextro is expanding its lineup.
