LEPAS is a new electrified car brand from Chery International. With a range of plug-in hybrid and electric models planned, including the flagship LEPAS L8, LEPAS is designed for businesses and individuals who want efficient, capable vehicles without compromise.

Elegance That Works

Drive Your Elegance. Drive Your Business.

LEPAS is launching in the UK with a range of plug-in hybrid vehicles, putting it firmly in one of the most tax-efficient company car categories available to UK businesses. Lower Benefit-in-Kind (BIK) tax for drivers. Reduced running costs. Vehicles that will support your organisation's sustainability commitments from day one.

Electrifying your fleet is no longer a long-term ambition. For many businesses, it is already an expectation from clients, employees and stakeholders. LEPAS arrives in 2026 ready to meet that moment.

Why an Electrified Fleet Makes Business Sense

Lower BIK Tax for Drivers

PHEVs and EVs attract significantly lower Benefit-in-Kind rates than petrol or diesel alternatives. A lower BIK band means a lower monthly tax bill for your drivers and a more attractive company car package at no extra cost to you.

Reduced Running Costs

A PHEV covers everyday journeys on electric power, cutting fuel spend across your fleet. A full EV removes fuel costs entirely for most business use. Lower running costs, lower total cost of ownership.

Lower Employer NIC

An electrified fleet means lower Class 1A National Insurance Contributions on employee company cars. A lower P11D value and lower BIK rate deliver real savings at company level, not just for your drivers.

Support Your Sustainability Goals

Switching to plug-in hybrid or fully electric vehicles reduces your fleet's CO₂ emissions from day one. For most businesses, fleet electrification is no longer a future ambition. It is a present expectation from clients, employees and stakeholders.

A Car Your Drivers Will Want

Electrification only works when drivers engage with it. LEPAS vehicles will arrive as large, premium SUVs with intelligent technology and distinctive design. When drivers want to get in the car, efficiency follows naturally.

Zero Emissions with a Full EV

When LEPAS launches its fully electric models, fleet operators will gain access to zero-emission vehicles, ULEZ exemptions and the strongest possible BIK position for their drivers.

Choose How You Drive It

A Smarter Way to Get Behind the Wheel

You will not have to purchase the LEPAS L8 outright to get behind the wheel. When the L8 launches in 2026, it will be available through a range of leasing and finance options, giving businesses and individuals a flexible, cost-effective way to drive a brand-new plug-in hybrid SUV.

Full details of finance options will be confirmed ahead of the 2026 launch. Register your interest to stay informed.

Precision. Power. Purpose.

The LEPAS L8, Built for Business

The LEPAS L8 is the first model from LEPAS, the newest brand from Chery International. A large five-seat SUV arriving in 2026, designed for every journey your business puts in its path.

  • A Platform Built for Confidence

    The L8 is built on LEPAS's proprietary LEX platform with a 2,800mm wheelbase. A wide, stable stance and a spacious five-seat cabin give drivers the presence and comfort that long business days demand.

  • The LEPAS Super Hybrid Powertrain

    The LEPAS Super Hybrid powertrain pairs a 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine with an electric motor and an 18.4kWh battery. Efficient enough for daily electric running. Capable enough for every longer journey. No compromise required.

  • 540-Degree Visibility

    The L8 will include a 540-degree camera system as standard, giving drivers a complete view of their surroundings. Easier manoeuvring. Less risk. More confidence in every car park, loading bay and tight urban space your fleet encounters.

  • AI Voice Control

    The L8 includes AI voice control as standard, keeping drivers focused on the road while managing calls, navigation and vehicle settings. Less distraction. A better experience for every driver in your fleet.

UK pricing and specifications will be confirmed ahead of the 2026 launch.

Be First in Line

The LEPAS L8 arrives in the UK in 2026. Fleet and business enquiries are welcome now. Register your interest early and your organisation will be among the first to receive pricing, specification and availability details when they are confirmed.
