Drive Your Elegance
A New Electrified Car Brand from Chery International.
Arriving in the UK in 2026.
LEPAS is the fourth brand from the Chery International group to launch in the UK, joining OMODA, JAECOO and Chery UK.
Its first UK model, the LEPAS L8, is a large five-seat plug-in hybrid SUV built around a philosophy of precision, power and elegance. Across the range, all LEPAS models will be electrified: hybrid, plug-in hybrid or electric.
The New LEPAS L8
The LEPAS L8 is a large five-seat SUV powered by the LEPAS Super Hybrid powertrain.
Where Nature's Precision Meets Human Craft
LEPAS takes its design language from the leopard: the fluid precision of its movement, the intensity of its gaze, the power held in every line. That philosophy, which the brand calls Leopard Aesthetics, runs through every surface of the LEPAS L8, from its sculpted exterior to its considered interior.
