GAC Launches AION V in Finland, Expanding Electric Vehicle Presence in Europe
GAC's Strategic Entry into the Finnish Market
On September 23, 2025, GAC Group unveiled its state-of-the-art electric SUV, the AION V, in the Finnish automotive market. This launch is pivotal as Finland becomes the third European country to host GAC's vehicles, enhancing its footprint in the electric vehicle (EV) sector within Europe. The introduction of the AION V not only strengthens GAC’s brand presence in the Scandinavian region but also symbolizes a significant milestone in its European market expansion plans.
The debut of the AION V is a result of GAC’s strategic partnership established with Inchcape during the 2024 Paris Motor Show, where the two companies signed a global agreement aimed at distributing and servicing GAC vehicles across Europe. This alliance is crafted to utilize Inchcape's well-established sales and service network along with GAC’s innovative technology, providing Finnish and European consumers access to a reliable and quality electric vehicle experience. Finland serves as the inaugural market for this collaboration, with plans for further expansion into additional European countries in the near future.
The AION V is designed to align with Finland's sustainability, safety, and space priorities, making it an appealing choice for a diverse range of consumers. With a five-star safety rating in the Euro NCAP 2025 assessments, the vehicle exemplifies GAC’s commitment to safety standards in automotive manufacturing. Furthermore, the AION V boasts an impressive range of 510 kilometers on a full charge under the WLTP cycle, and it supports ultra-fast charging capabilities, allowing users to recharge from 10% to 80% in just 24 minutes. This setup effectively alleviates range anxiety for electric vehicle owners and promotes practical use, especially in a country where charging infrastructure is continuously developing.
Boasting a spacious interior, the AION V features a wheelbase of 2775 mm and a trunk capacity of 427 liters, making it an ideal option for those engaging in family trips or outdoor adventures. GAC also offers substantial longevity assurances with an 8-year warranty on the vehicle and a 160,000-kilometer guarantee, alongside an 8-year battery warranty covering up to 200,000 kilometers. These warranties provide customers with peace of mind regarding the vehicle's durability and help mitigate overall ownership costs. By delivering an
