NISSAN NX8 SUV
The all-new Nissan NX8 from Dongfeng Nissan has officially entered production at the Huadu plant. Riding on the brand’s new Tianyan architecture, the SUV features an advanced 800V electrical system and CATL’s cutting-edge 5C ultra-fast charging tech. Market launch is expected sometime between March and April.
EXTERIOR 
Design-wise, the Nissan NX8 pushes Nissan’s V-motion styling in a much more futuristic direction. Up front, a star-ring lighting signature, closed grille, and illuminated Nissan badge create a distinctly high-tech look.
The rear is even more dramatic, featuring “quantum light curtain” taillights made up of 2,064 OLED elements that can display customizable lighting animations.
In terms of size, the NX8 stretches 4,870 mm long, 1,920 mm wide, and 1,680 mm tall, riding on a generous 2,917 mm wheelbase.
INTERIOR
Step inside the Nissan NX8, and the focus on technology becomes even clearer. The wraparound cockpit combines a sleek two-spoke steering wheel with a fully digital instrument panel and floating dual-screen infotainment setup, giving the cabin a futuristic feel.
The SUV also packs modern conveniences like wireless phone charging and a head-up display. On the driver-assistance front, LiDAR technology enables advanced features including Highway Navigation Assist, Urban Navigation Assist, and intelligent parking functions designed to make driving both safer and more effortless.
POWERTRAIN
Powertrain choices for the Nissan NX8 are impressively diverse, with buyers able to choose between fully electric and range-extended setups.
The EV version comes in two outputs—215 kW and 250 kW—and can be paired with either a 73 kWh or 81 kWh battery. Depending on the configuration, range figures stretch from 565 km all the way up to 650 km.
For drivers wanting extra flexibility, the range-extender model combines a 1.5-litre turbo engine acting as a generator with a 195 kW electric motor. Battery options range from 20.3 kWh to 37.4 kWh, delivering pure electric driving ranges of up to 185 km.
One of the biggest highlights of the Nissan NX8 is its advanced 800V electrical architecture combined with CATL’s latest LFP battery technology. Nissan says this makes the NX8 the first new-energy SUV from a non-Chinese brand to support 800V 5C ultra-fast charging.
The battery pack has also been engineered and manufactured under Nissan’s own global standards, allowing it to maintain reliable performance in extreme temperatures ranging from -30°C to 60°C.
