GAC continues to strengthen its presence in the Saudi market by introducing models that combine luxury, spaciousness, and cutting edge technology. With the launch of the all new GS8 Traveller 2026 through its local dealer Aljomaih Automotive, the Chinese brand offers an ideal choice for families and travel enthusiasts. Its practical design features three rows of seats, generous cargo capacity, and an advanced suite of driver assistance systems. This comprehensive set of intelligent technologies is designed to enhance the driving experience and boost safety in all conditions.

Bigger Design and More Space for Travel Enthusiasts


The 2026 GAC GS8 Traveler comes with a distinctive design that makes it even more practical for travel and adventure lovers. It now measures 5110 mm in overall length compared to 4980 mm in the standard version, which translates into extra cabin space for passenger comfort and a larger rear storage compartment with a newly designed, more functional tailgate.


While it retains the same powertrain and interior layout as the standard model, it adds exterior touches such as a refreshed front fascia and sporty body accents that give it a bolder presence. These updates make it an appealing choice for larger families seeking a versatile full size SUV.

Advanced Driver Assistance Suite

The GS8 Traveler is equipped with a comprehensive set of advanced driver assistance systems designed to enhance both safety and comfort, including:

  • Adaptive Cruise Control with Radar (ACC): Automatically adjusts the vehicle’s speed to match the car ahead while maintaining a safe distance, and features stop and go functionality even at low speeds.

  • Hill Start Assist: Prevents the vehicle from rolling backward when moving your foot from the brake to the accelerator, ensuring better control on slopes.

  • Hill Descent Control (HDC): Maintains a steady speed on steep declines without the need to apply the brakes, making off road driving easier.

  • Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR): Detects road signs such as speed limits and stop signs, displaying them on the instrument cluster or infotainment screen to keep the driver informed.

  • Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS): Monitors tire air pressure and alerts the driver if it drops below the recommended level.

  • Electronic Parking Brake (EPB): Offers an easy to use electronic braking system with an indicator light on the dashboard.

  • Automatic Parking Assist (APA): Controls steering, braking, and gear shifts to complete parallel or perpendicular parking with ease.

  • Auto Hold: Keeps the vehicle stationary without the need to press the brake pedal, improving comfort in traffic or at traffic lights.

  • Adaptive Front Lighting: Enhances night visibility by adjusting the direction of the headlights according to road conditions.

Additional Features Enhancing Comfort and Technology


The advantages of the GS8 Traveler go beyond safety systems, extending to features designed to maximize passenger comfort, including:

  • 360 degree surround view cameras providing a complete view of the vehicle’s surroundings.

  • Built in navigation system for easy route guidance during long trips.

  • Push button engine start with remote start capability for added convenience.


With these features, the 2026 GAC GS8 Traveler positions itself strongly among large SUVs in Saudi Arabia, catering to families seeking a blend of luxury, spaciousness, and safety. By combining advanced driver assistance technologies with a practical design, it becomes a smart choice for anyone looking to embark on their journeys with the highest levels of confidence and comfort.
