The top two 2026 GAC S7 trims — the Max LiDAR 255km and the Ultra 4WD LiDAR 240km — share most of their luxury equipment. The real differences are drivetrain, lighting and safety details. And one feature buyers often ask about, electric suction (soft-close) doors, is listed on the 2025 Ultra trims rather than the 2026 Ultra.
Which premium features do the 2026 Max and Ultra share?
- Massage seats in both rows: front seats heated, ventilated and massaging, with driver headrest speakers; second-row seats heated, ventilated and massaging
- 17.3-inch 3K rear entertainment screen
- Head-up display
- 22-speaker audio
- LiDAR driver assistance: Seyond 192-line LiDAR, Qualcomm SA8650P at 200 TOPS, 11 cameras
- 15.6-inch 2.5K centre screen on the Snapdragon 8295P with 32 GB memory

Does the 2026 GAC S7 have electric suction doors?
Not according to the manufacturer data we work from. Electric soft-close doors on all four doors are listed only for the 2025 Ultra 4WD and 2025 Ultra 4WD LiDAR. If soft-close doors are a must for your customers — common in VIP and hotel fleets — order the 2025 Ultra 4WD LiDAR or 2025 Ultra 4WD, and ask sales to confirm the feature on the proforma invoice.
Are the massage seats worth it for fleets?
For chauffeur, hotel and executive transport, yes: the passenger spends the whole trip in the rear seat, and heated, ventilated and massaging rear seats are features they notice. For self-driven rental or ride-hailing, the cheaper 2026 Pro — which has a massaging driver seat but standard rear seats — is usually enough.
Max or Ultra: which should you order?
- Choose the [2026 Max LiDAR](/vehicles/2026-gac-s7/max-lidar-255km) for city chauffeur work: longer electric range and the same rear-seat luxury at a lower specification.
- Choose the [2026 Ultra 4WD LiDAR](/vehicles/2026-gac-s7/ultra-4wd-lidar-240km) for rough roads or bad weather, or as a performance flagship.
- Choose a 2025 Ultra if soft-close doors are essential.
