Huawei-Backed Maextro S800 Sedan Challenges Luxury Market in China
Imagine a super fancy car made by a company that Huawei is helping create.
It's called the Maextro S800, and it's designed to be as luxurious as cars like Rolls-Royce.
The car has a long body, with a fancy interior with cool screens and comfy seats.
It comes in both electric and hybrid versions.
In just a month, lots of people wanted to buy it.
It has features like rear-wheel steering, a big battery, and ultra-fast charging.
The price is quite high, but still less than some of the super expensive cars it's competing with.

The S800 targets high-end competitors like Mercedes-Maybach and Rolls-Royce.
The car is available in both electric and hybrid (EREV) versions.
The S800 features fast charging and rear-wheel steering for enhanced maneuverability.
Prices range from 708,000 yuan to 1,018,000 yuan.
