Lepas L8 review: A luxury-packed family SUV with a tempting price
The plug-in hybrid SUV offers up to 56 miles of electric range and comes with a seven-year, 100,000-mile warranty.
- On Monday, Lepas arrived in Britain with its first offering, the L8, a plug-in hybrid SUV combining a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine with an electric motor and 18.4kWh battery.
- Prices for the Essence trim start at £34,900, which includes a panoramic sunroof, wireless phone charging and a 13.2-inch touchscreen. The claimed electric range reaches up to 56 miles.
- Spend £37,900 on the Elevate model to receive heated, ventilated and massaging front seats, a Sony sound system, extra parking assistance and a powered tailgate. The cabin features a panoramic roof creating a calm, comfortable space.
- Both versions come with a seven-year, 100,000-mile vehicle warranty, with the high-voltage battery covered for eight years or 100,000 miles. However, ownership includes electronic annoyances such as a shortage of physical buttons and a persistent in-car fragrance system.
- Although the brand remains unfamiliar, the L8 appeals when compared to similarly equipped plug-in hybrid SUVs from established names. It loads luxury and standard equipment while pricing keenly enough to challenge the existing automotive landscape.
