but we have yet to learn its capacity and estimated range figures. The U8 also makes use of the in-house developed “Yisifang” technology for the quad-motor powertrain, which will be standard equipment for all models of the Yangwang brand.
In the U8, each motor produces 295-322 hp and 320-420 Nm of torque, resulting in a combined output of over 1,100 hp .
