As FREELANDER's first strategic model and the first vehicle planned for launch in the Middle East, FREELANDER 8 embodies the brand's three core pillars: British Craftsmanship, Smart Confidence and All-Terrain Freedom. During the forum, Lucia Mao, CEO of FREELANDER International, highlighted the brand's commitment to developing intelligent mobility solutions that address real-world customer needs while supporting FREELANDER's international expansion strategy.
Regarding the FREELANDER 8, one of the most pioneering features of its intelligent mobility experience is SIVP (Super Intelligent Valet Parking), which is available in select international markets, enabling users to remotely manage parking and vehicle summon functions through a mobile application, delivering a more convenient ownership experience.
The system has been optimized for scenarios commonly encountered in the Middle East, where extreme summer temperatures can make parking and vehicle access less comfortable. Upon arriving at destinations such as hotels, shopping malls or business centers, users can leave the vehicle at a designated drop-off point while SIVP autonomously completes parking functions, including space searching, obstacle avoidance and automated parking. When returning, users can summon the vehicle through a mobile application, allowing it to travel to a designated pick-up location. By reducing time spent outdoors in high-temperature environments, the system significantly improves convenience and comfort during daily use.
SIVP forms part of FREELANDER 8's broader intelligent technology ecosystem. An intelligent cockpit powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8295P chip delivers advanced connectivity and intelligent interaction, while SIVP extends these capabilities into everyday mobility scenarios. Together, these technologies contribute to FREELANDER's Smart Confidence experience.

Combined with FREELANDER 8's British design, premium interior environment and the Intelligent All-Terrain System (i-ATS), SIVP further strengthens the vehicle's competitiveness in international markets. The technology reflects FREELANDER's approach to developing intelligent solutions that are adapted to regional lifestyles, driving environments and customer expectations.
During the forum, SIVP attracted considerable attention from attendees, with many guests expressing interest in how the system addresses practical mobility challenges in high-temperature environments. The positive response reinforced FREELANDER's strategy of combining advanced innovation with localized user needs.
As preparations continue for the brand's launch in the UAE, FREELANDER 8 showcases how British Craftsmanship, Smart Confidence and All-Terrain Freedom can be reshaped through intelligent innovation for a new generation of global users.
