Built on the DMO Super Hybrid Off-Road platform, the Leopard 8 is larger in size compared to the Leopard 5 and features a three-row seating design, with six and seven seats expected to be available. Judging from the state of the second-row backrest angle, it is expected to come with power backrest angle adjustment, while comfort features like seat ventilation and heating are expected to take care of the rear passengers, and sliding rails in the second row allow for easier spatial adjustment. From the spy photos, we also found that the passenger seat side is also suspected of designing the boss button button. Due to the limited angle, the performance of the three rows could not be seen this time.
