When elegance meets driving dynamics, and technology blends into everyday life, a journey poised to redefine elegant mobility in the new-energy era is about to begin. On October 15, the flagship event in the LEPAS segment of the 2025 Chery International User Summit —the LEPAS Global Journey of Elegant Driving (China Stop) — will officially kick off.

On this tour, the LEPAS L8 — the brand’s first model — takes center stage, combining a “Leopard Aesthetic” design language with cutting-edge intelligent technology to offer a refined new choice for urban professionals who value quality. Departing from Shanghai, the LEPAS Global Journey of Elegant Driving will pass through Suzhou, Moganshan, and Xuancheng before reaching Wuhu — nearly 1,000 kilometers in total — covering genuine road conditions including urban tarmac, highway cruising, winding mountain passes, and night driving. LEPAS L8 will lead the convoy, media outlets and KOLs from all five continents globally involved deeply. Official channels and KOC creators will run simultaneous livestreams, while aerial footage captures every frame of the “roadbook movie,” sharing this journey — where scenery, culture, and technology converge—with audiences worldwide in real time.

Along the way, the L8 will demonstrate its all-around capabilities in different settings, offering a fully immersive taste of LEPAS’s unique “Elegant Driving” charm. In Shanghai’s streets and lanes, you’ll feel its smooth power delivery, generous cabin space, and high-fidelity audio system. On the Shanghai–Jiangsu expressway, intelligent Elegant Driver-Assistance features such as ACC adaptive cruise control will provide continuous support. On the mountain roads of Moganshan, you can test the L8’s precise steering feedback, agile power response, and efficient energy-recuperation system for pure driving enjoyment. At the Moganshan campsite, the L8’s vehicle-to-load (V2L) external power supply turns the car into a mobile energy station, elevating the outdoor experience. Facing the varied conditions around Xuancheng, you can appreciate the vehicle’s well-tuned chassis and body stability. Upon reaching Wuhu’s riverfront, you’ll also get hands-on with APA automatic parking assist and RPA remote parking assist.

Even more exciting, this test drive doubles as a showcase of an elegant lifestyle. By integrating “people, vehicle, and setting,” the event demonstrates how the LEPAS L8 becomes a refined companion for exploring the world and savoring life. Along the route, participants will check in at city landmarks and engage with local culture: Shanghai’s modern metropolitan vibe, Suzhou’s classical garden artistry, Moganshan’s restorative nature, Xuancheng’s ink-wash ambience, and Wuhu’s lively riverfront: unlocking the distinctive encounters between the L8 and each city’s character.

This grand tour — part performance trial across all road conditions, part full-scenario lifestyle experience, part cultural wayfinding — will comprehensively present the LEPAS L8’s capabilities as a mainstream benchmark SUV for urban elites, serving as a “power preview” ahead of the L8’s global launch.
