GAC Honored with Prestigious Awards and Introduces Assurance Policy

On December 28, 2025, the grand finale of the 2025 China Digital Automobile Competition and the much-anticipated Digital 'Cross-China Drive' Awards Ceremony took place in Tianjin, China. This event, co-hosted by the China-SAE and the National Big Data Alliance of New Energy Vehicles, showcased the latest advancements in the automotive industry, specifically focusing on new energy vehicles.

The new format for the Digital 'Cross-China Drive' introduced this year attracted over ten leading brands in the new energy vehicle sector, marking a significant milestone for the competition. Over 30 days of rigorous long-distance testing and challenging competitions led to impressive results for GAC's brands.

Among the recognition received, HYPTEC HL was awarded the title of 'Benchmark for Immersive All-Dimensional Comfort.' This accolade emphasizes HYPTEC HL's innovative technology and design aimed at enhancing user experience. GAC ALL-NEW S9 was recognized as the 'Benchmark for All-Scenario Assisted Driving Applicability,' showcasing its versatility and advanced driving capabilities. Additionally, AION i60 received the accolade for 'Benchmark for Intelligent Energy Efficiency Management,' underlining its commitment to sustainable and efficient driving.

In conjunction with these awards, GAC made a groundbreaking announcement regarding their new Triple Assurance Policy, aimed at solidifying its commitment to customer satisfaction and safety. With this pioneering initiative, GAC becomes the first Chinese independent automaker to enforce such a comprehensive policy. The Triple Assurance Policy encompasses full responsibility for three critical areas:
1. Thermal incidents originating from the battery, motor, or electronic control system.
2. Battery degradation that exceeds specified limits.
3. Accidents resulting from the intelligent parking functions.

This initiative is revolutionary as it represents a complete protection plan for vehicle owners, offering peace of mind from the purchase stage, through daily usage, and extending to maintenance. The move signifies a shift in the industry from traditional price-driven competition towards a more value-oriented assurance, enhancing the overall user experience.

Moreover, the introduction of this policy marks a significant transition for GAC, illustrating how the confidence gained from overcoming the rigorous conditions of the competition translates into a long-term commitment to its customers. GAC plans to hold firm to a user-centric philosophy, focusing on providing reliable products, transparency in commitments, and comprehensive service offerings.

Looking forward, GAC’s self-owned brands, including HYPTEC, GAC, and AION, are poised to continue propelling the high-quality development of China’s automotive industry. Their aim is to revolutionize mobility experiences, ensuring that customers can enjoy worry-free journeys with complete assurance.

In conclusion, GAC’s achievements at the 2025 'Cross-China Drive' and the launch of the Triple Assurance Policy not only underscore their innovation but also their dedication to enhancing customer trust and safety, promising a new era of automotive excellence in China.
