GAC GS8 2026 Price in Saudi Arabia

The GS8 is the largest SUV GAC sells in Saudi Arabia — 5,015 mm long with seven seats and 248 bhp from a turbocharged 2.0. It is aimed at families who want the space of a full-size SUV without paying full-size SUV money.

Decide on the drive layout, then weigh a new car against the used GS8s listed now.

How much does the GAC GS8 cost in Saudi Arabia?

Two 2026 grades separate on drive layout: the GT 2WD 2.0L Turbo GDI (Base) at SAR 139,116 sends its power to two wheels, and the GX AWD 2.0L Turbo GDI (Top) at SAR 150,811 drives all four. The engine, the seven seats and the body are shared, so the premium buys traction and the equipment that travels with it.

Two-wheel drive or all-wheel drive?

Two-wheel drive is enough for a vehicle that lives on sealed roads, and it is lighter, cheaper and has one less system to maintain. All-wheel drive is worth the difference if you regularly leave the tarmac or load the car heavily for long trips — on a seven-seat SUV carrying a full complement of people and luggage, that extra traction is not a luxury.

How usable is the third row?

Genuinely usable, which is not true of every seven-seater at this price. At just over five metres the GS8 has the length to give the rearmost passengers real legroom rather than a token bench, and the doors are large enough to make access straightforward. Check what luggage space remains with all three rows up; if you carry adults in the rearmost seats every day, the M8 MPV does that job better still.

Does the GS8 hold its value?

Not well — around 45% of its value after five years, against roughly 51% for the average used SUV in the Kingdom. Large SUVs from newer badges are the hardest thing to sell on, and that is the honest position. For a used buyer it is the whole argument. The ones reaching inspection carry a median of around 70,000 km, so the gearbox, the suspension and a full service record are what to check.

Is a used GS8 the better buy?

The saving is substantial. Recent examples generally ask around SAR 70,000 to SAR 150,000, roughly 48% below the new entry price and about SAR 65,000 saved. On a vehicle this size the condition of the drivetrain and the service record matter far more than the odometer, so make an inspection report a condition of the purchase.
