XCITE has officially announced the upcoming launch of its X-Cross 8 all-wheel-drive crossover. The automotive Telegram channel "Я за рулем Maxim Kadakov" has revealed its interior.
In terms of technology, there are no revelations. A 1.6-liter turbocharged engine, 150 hp, a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission 7DCT, all-wheel drive.
The interior of the seven-seater car is identical to the Chery Tiggo 8 Pro, which the Chinese manufacturer Chery intends to withdraw from the Russian market soon: the overall design, media system, 360-degree cameras, and touch control panel for climate control.
It is known that the basic version of the car includes a "winter package" with heated steering wheel, nozzles, and windshield, first and second-row seats, keyless entry, and remote engine start. Also, X-Cross 8 received a good safety system: six airbags, cruise control, front and rear parking sensors, blind spot monitoring system, and hill start and descent assist system.
The model is presented in six metallic shades: silver, gray, white, black, green, and blue. Prices for cars in basic and advanced configurations are not yet available; they will be announced at the start of sales.
XCITE X-Cross 8 was supposed to appear in dealerships in October, but it later became known that the start of its sales in Russia has been postponed — its vehicle type approval certificate (OTTS) is being re оформляют.
