LIVAN AUTO Launches in Southeast Asia with Global Debut of RL8 in Indonesia

[Jakarta, Indonesia, November 22, 2024] LIVAN AUTO's RL8 made its global debut in Jakarta, Indonesia, after its domestic release at the Guangzhou Auto Show on November 15. The right-hand-drive version of RL8 marks the brand’s entry into the Southeast Asian market. As LIVAN AUTO’s first global model, RL8 is positioned as a versatile, seven-seater pure electric MPV, excelling in safety, space, range, and intelligence. This international unveiling not only introduces Indonesian consumers to a new choice for family and business travel but also showcases LIVAN AUTO’s innovative capabilities and technological achievements in the new energy vehicle (NEV) sector.

In recent years, the rapid development of NEVs among Chinese automakers has made "global models" a key symbol of brand strength and internationalization strategies. The right-hand-drive RL8’s official debut in Jakarta has attracted widespread attention and praise from both domestic and international media.

Designed for the global market, RL8 targets high-end business travel scenarios with its spacious and comfortable seven-seat configuration, exceptional range, and advanced technological features. Overseas media who test-drove the RL8 remarked that it outperforms competitors like Toyota Innova in dimensions and interior space, making it a strong contender in Indonesia’s high-end business vehicle segment.

Cutting-Edge Innovation: LIVAN’s Formula for Global High-End Business Travel

As the domestic NEV market becomes increasingly competitive, accelerating overseas expansion and exporting NEVs represent critical opportunities for Chinese automakers to achieve a competitive edge globally.

RL8 boasts a sleek and business-focused design, featuring a newly designed front grille with a balanced blend of elegance and boldness.

To address range anxiety for overseas users, the RL8 is equipped with large-capacity 50.4kWh and 64.74kWh batteries, complemented by liquid gold tires, industry-leading low rolling resistance, and low-energy brake systems. These features enable the RL8 to achieve a maximum range of 530 km.

Forward Thinking: Accelerating Expansion in the Overseas NEV Market

Last year, China’s auto production and sales surpassed 30 million units, solidifying its position as the world’s largest automobile exporter, with NEV production and sales leading globally for nine consecutive years. LIVAN AUTO took a proactive approach as early as 2022, laying a solid foundation for globalization with high-value NEVs.
