Overview
editThe Taishan is positioned as the brand's flagship model. It is a six-seater (2+2+2 seating configuration) full-size SUV.[1] As part of a publicity stunt, a prototype version of the Taishan, covered with Louis Vuitton-themed camouflage, was parked in front of Louis Vuitton's The Louis exhibition building in Shanghai.[2]
Photos released from the MIIT revealed that it was planned to be alternatively named the Voyah 9L or Voyah 9L Taishan. However the Taishan name was kept for the production model.[3]
Pre-orders began on September 26, 2025.[4] The Taishan officially launched on November 18, 2025.[5]

Design
editThe Taishan's front end features a silver waterfall-like grille design, slim headlights, a light bar going the entire width of the front grille, and an illuminated logo. The daytime running lights on both sides are inspired by the oracle bone script character for "water" and are made by Huawei.[6] A continuous light bar is present at the rear alongside a spoiler mounted at the top.[7] The door handles use a semi-hidden design and are also illuminated.[8]
Features
editThe front row of the Taishan's interior features a floating central touchscreen, an LCD instrument display, an augmented reality heads-up display, and a column shifter. The second row uses captain chairs with integrated touchscreens, armrests with cup holders, and speakers integrated into the headrests. The Taishan also has a split sunroof, a ceiling-mounted screen, folding tables, and a built-in refrigerator. Huawei's ADS 4 system with 4 LiDARs will come standard, as well as air suspension and four-wheel steering.[9]
Voyah Taishan X8
editThe Voyah Taishan X8 is considered to be the 5-seater version of the Taishan. Its length and wheelbase are both 30 millimeters less than that of the Taishan and is 3 millimeters shorter in terms of height. It is also heavier than the regular Taishan.[10] The Taishan X8 was unveiled on March 19, 2026, alongside Voyah's Hong Kong stock market debut.[11]
It made its debut on April 1, 2026. The X8 is the first vehicle to use Huawei's new version of HarmonyOS that utilizes two 15.6-inch central touchscreens capable of a brightness of 1000 nit and both screens have the capability to operate independently of each other.[12]
Voyah officially launched the Taishan X8 on May 22, 2026, with a starting price of ¥292,000 ($43,100).[13]
