The Trumpchi GS7, later the Trumpchi GS8S, is a mid-size crossover SUV produced by GAC Group under the Trumpchi brand in China and the GAC Motor brand globally.[1]
Being essentially the smaller five-seater version of the larger seven-seater Trumpchi GS8, the GS7 has been redesigned from the C-pillar onward to the rear to differentiate from the larger GS8.[2] The GS7 had a worldwide debut during the Detroit Auto Show,[3] and was launched in China in June 2017 with pricing starting from 155,800 yuan to 230,000 yuan.[4]
As of 2018, the GS7 is powered by the 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo engine and six-speed automatic transmission developed in-house by GAC. The 2.0-litre multi-port injected inline-4 engine includes auto start/stop and delivers 1980NaN0 and 236lbft of torque. The AWD system is also offered which includes a requisite terrain response knob, featuring sand, trail, snow, and normal scenario settings.[5]
The Trumpchi GS8S was launched in April 2020. Essentially a facelifted GS7, the GS8S sits slightly below the regular GS8 as a 5-seater Trumpchi GS8, the exterior difference being the front and rear parts with the later model having a redesigned and more aggressive front grille. It is powered by a redesigned 2.0-litre direct-injection turbocharged engine.[6] The engine produces a maximum power of 2520NaN0 and peak torque of 390sigfig=3NaNsigfig=3 and meets the China-6 emission standards. Transmission is a 6-speed automatic gearbox.[7]
