AITO M8 in Peru: can you get one?

No — there is no official way to buy the AITO M8 in Peru today.

AITO (Seres / Huawei HIMA) has dealers in mainland China and the United Arab Emirates only. AITO only began selling outside mainland China in February 2026, when Seres signed Performance Plus Motors — part of the Abu Dhabi Motors group — as its first overseas dealer and started deliveries of the AITO 9 (the export name for the M9) in the UAE. The UAE is so far the brand's only export market with a dealer network.

Seres has called the UAE deal "a new starting point" for the Middle East, and AITO showed the M8, M9 and M5 at IAA Munich in September 2025, but no second country has been given a launch date, a price or a dealer. Reports of showrooms opening in Saudi Arabia or Qatar are so far projections by motoring blogs, not company announcements, so we do not count them. Independent importers do advertise these cars outside China and the UAE. Buying that way means no manufacturer warranty, no official service network, no guarantee that the Huawei software and assisted-driving features work on local maps and networks, and type-approval is your problem.
