Overview

The Fangchengbao Bao 8 also known as Fanchengbao Leopard 8. The 2025 Fangchengbao Bao 8 PHEV Flagship Edition, blends mechanical strength with futuristic aesthetics. Developed under BYD’s “Starship Toughness” design philosophy, it demonstrates the balance of luxury, intelligence, and true all-terrain capability expected from a flagship plug-in hybrid SUV.

Starship-Inspired Exterior

The Bao 8 adopts a “starship-grade” exterior that merges functionality with visual power. Its sharply defined bodylines and mortise-and-tenon structural detailing convey precision and structural integrity.
The bold front fascia draws inspiration from spacecraft geometry, while the 21-inch multi-spoke wheels emphasize stability and confidence. Every surface and proportion reflect harmony between design and engineering, expressing both technology and strength.

Futuristic and Immersive Interior

Inside, the Bao 8 continues the “Starship Cockpit” concept, combining futuristic styling with refined craftsmanship. Soft ambient lighting and illuminated real-wood panels create a calm, high-tech atmosphere. The starship-style seats with powered side bolsters provide firm lateral support, while more than 90% of interior surfaces are finished in premium leather.

A Devialet 3-way audio system and a well-insulated cabin deliver a quiet, immersive sound experience. All seats come with electric adjustment for effortless customization. The flexible second- and third-row layouts, combined with a generous cargo area, make the Bao 8 suitable for both family travel and business use. Smart storage spaces throughout the cabin add practicality to its premium design.

Intelligent Cabin and Interaction

The AI-powered cockpit supports multi-screen interaction and full-vehicle voice control. Drivers can manage navigation, entertainment, climate, and seat settings entirely by voice, while rear passengers have independent control panels.

The one-touch third-row entry system improves accessibility and convenience. A 7.5-liter smart refrigerator and “Enjoy Mode” seating configuration transform the interior into a comfortable, intelligent mobile lounge.

Powertrain and Performance

The Bao 8 uses a 1.5T turbocharged four-cylinder engine paired with dual electric motors that deliver intelligent all-wheel drive. The system produces 505 kW and 760 N·m of torque, allowing acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.8 seconds.

A 39.8 kWh LFP battery provides up to 125 km of pure electric range and a total range of around 1,200 km, while average fuel consumption remains as low as 7.9 L/100 km. The E-CVT transmission ensures smooth transitions between electric and hybrid power for a balanced and effortless drive.

Chassis and Driving Dynamics

Built on the DMO+ Electric Hybrid Off-Road Platform, the Bao 8 combines stability with adaptive control for confident performance on any terrain. Multiple driving modes, including Sport, Mud, and Off-Road, enable the vehicle to adapt to conditions such as slopes, ruts, and shallow water crossings.

The Leopard Turn 2.0 system shortens the turning radius, improving maneuverability even in narrow city streets. The DiSus-P Intelligent Hydraulic Body Control System continuously adjusts damping in real time. With 50-times damping bandwidth and triple-stiffness tuning, it can reduce impact load by up to 50% under demanding conditions.

The suspension offers 140 mm of travel and 310 mm of ground clearance, with automatic height adjustment that enhances both comfort and practicality.

Intelligent Driving and Active Safety

Huawei’s ADS 4 (Qiankun) intelligent driving system gives the Bao 8 advanced perception and decision-making capabilities. It supports valet, remote, and reverse parking, as well as automatic park-in and park-out functions.

Safety systems such as Adaptive AEB, GAEB, eAES, and the CAS 4.0 Collision Avoidance Suite work together to provide 360-degree protection from every direction.

A 300-meter infrared night-vision system enhances visibility in low light, detecting pedestrians, animals, and vehicles before they come into view. At higher speeds, the tire blowout stabilization function automatically corrects the vehicle’s posture within milliseconds to maintain stability and control.

Structural Safety and Passive Protection

The Bao 8 is equipped with BYD’s Blade Battery, known for its outstanding durability and safety. Its five-layer protective design provides exceptional impact resistance, while CTC (Cell-to-Chassis) integration lowers the center of gravity and maintains a 50:50 weight balance for improved handling.

A ring-reinforced cage structure increases body rigidity and rollover resistance.

Fourteen airbags, including knee and far-side airbags, are paired with motorized pre-tensioned seatbelts that tighten instantly during emergencies and release smoothly once the vehicle stabilizes, ensuring both safety and comfort.

Flagship Philosophy

The Fangchengbao Bao 8 PHEV 2025 Flagship Edition represents the pinnacle of BYD’s hybrid technology. It brings together intelligent performance, advanced safety systems, and refined craftsmanship in a vehicle built to excel both off-road and in the city. Strong, capable, and sophisticated, the Leopard 8 sets a new benchmark for modern flagship SUVs.
