Firstly, ignore the IM LS8 badging and model plates, as IM Motors is a separate brand in China.
As its tentative name suggests, the IM8 will slot in way above the IM6, and nowhere is this more evident than in its size.
Distancing itself from the bulbous, baleen whale-like design of the IM6, the IM8 is altogether more chiselled, with an imposing upright body and more angular details.
The IM8 can be had in rear- and all-wheel-drive forms, the former producing 313 PS (230 kW) and 430 Nm of torque.
The battery has also been swapped out for a 66 kWh NMC unit for an EV range of 430 km and a combined range of 1,605 km.
