GAC M8 2026 Price in UAE

The M8 is GAC's large MPV in the UAE — 5,212 mm long, seven seats, sliding rear doors and 248 bhp. It is built for carrying people in comfort rather than for looking like an SUV while doing it.

How much does the GAC M8 cost in the UAE?

Two 2026 grades sit some way apart: AED 159,000 for the 2.0T GT and AED 179,900 for the 2.0T GX. Both use the same 2.0 L turbo and 400 Nm, so the money goes entirely on cabin specification — which, on a vehicle bought to move passengers, is not a trivial place for it to go.

Which M8 grade is the one to buy?

It depends who sits in the back. If the M8 is a family car and the middle row is mostly children, the entry grade is more than sufficient. If it carries adults regularly — for work, for guests, for airport runs — the higher grade's rear-cabin equipment is the whole reason to own this shape of vehicle, and it justifies the premium.

GAC M8 or Kia Carnival?

The M8 undercuts the established MPVs and gives you a longer body and a more lavish rear cabin for the money, which matters if passengers are the point. The Kia Carnival is the class benchmark on resale and service coverage, and the Toyota Sienna is the efficiency choice. Both will cost you less to sell on.

What does a GAC M8 cost to run in the UAE?

About 10 Km/L from a 2.0-litre turbo hauling a five-metre vehicle, which is reasonable rather than frugal. Warranty cover runs five years or 150,000 km — worth reading in full, since a vehicle used for airport and business runs reaches a mileage cap quickly. Confirm which workshops are authorised before that becomes urgent.

Does the M8 keep its value?

A little under the average: around 49% after five years against roughly 52% for Chinese-badged cars here, and 65% at three. A large luxury MPV appeals to a narrower group of second-hand buyers than an SUV does, and the price reflects that. The things to have checked on a used one are the powered doors and seats and the air conditioning through all three rows — expensive items that are easy to overlook.

Work out who actually sits in the back, then price the two grades on rear-cabin equipment alone. The used GACs listed today deserve the same second-row test.
