Production model

The iMAX8 was revealed in September 2020 at the 2020 Auto China event in Beijing, China, as a production model with few changes from the iM8 concept. It is based on the slightly larger Maxus G20.

The iMAX8 is available in petrol and all-electric versions. At launch, the petrol version is powered by a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine with 180 hp, as well as a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine delivering 224 hp. Both engines will be mated to an Aisin eight-speed automatic transmission. Production of the iMAX8 is planned to start in autumn of 2020. It is the first minivan under the Roewe brand.
