At the 2024 Beijing Auto Show, StarRoad Auto showcased several models, including StarRoad Star Era ES, StarRoad Star Era ET, StarRoad Yao Guang C-DM, and the debut concept MPV StarRoad E08. StarRoad E08 will be positioned as a flagship MPV. Although still in the concept stage, the future design direction of StarRoad can be seen.
Star E08 will adopt a family-style design with improvements and changes in many details, such as the use of split-type headlight design, the upper part in a C-shaped design, and the lower part in an L-shaped design, with star-like embellishments, making the front end look more divine.
The new car will be a pure electric model, so the front grille is completely closed, but with added illuminated elements. Currently, there is only one lighting effect, but it is unclear if there will be interchangeable lighting designs in the future.
The body side lines are extremely smooth, from the front of the car to the rear, the flat shape can effectively reduce the drag coefficient. The first impression of the whole car is big, with a length of nearly 6 meters, and the rear door is innovatively designed to the rear wheel position, ensuring the convenience of the third-row passengers getting on and off.
The design of the rear end of the car complements the front, especially the tail lights, which are still in a split style with starry accents in the middle and bottom, giving a strong sense of technology.
Since it is still in the concept car stage, the interior has not been revealed. However, from the photos in the presentation, the interior design of the car also shows a family style, with an integrated dashboard running through the entire interior, and featuring dual displays and a half-cut steering wheel, giving a feeling of a future spaceship cockpit.
This car will be used by active families, so it will likely have a 6-seat layout with adjustable and rotating second-row seats. The third row of seats may overturn the traditional three-row bench seat concept and be designed more like a sofa, making it potentially the most comfortable seating position in the car. Summary: The price of the car has not been announced yet, and its features and power options are still in the development stage. However, it seems that Star Road and Star Era will continue to cover various fields such as fuel, hybrid, range-extender, and pure electric vehicles. The appearance of the E08 also indicates that Star Road will enter the MPV market, further segmenting the market. So, what performance are you looking forward to from this large MPV?
