In the next month, the new GAC GS8 Traveller will appear in Russia

According to the “Chinese cars”, the GAC will expand the gamut of the GS8 crossover with a version called Traveller – this will happen in February or in early March. The GS8 Traveller will differ from the usual “eight” with an off -road exterior design and the presence of a rectangular box on the trunk door. Prices have not yet been announced, but it is logical to assume that this option will be more expensive than a standard GS8.

Then it was reported that revision is addressed to travel lovers and outdoor activities and should increase the off -road potential of a large crossover. Traveller received the original design of a radiator grille with a large inscription GAC and other bumers, reinforced roof rails and a rectangular coffee, carried out on a luggage door.
