GAC's International Expansion through AION i60

On November 7, 2026, GAC launched the AION i60 in Indonesia, marking its first international launch. This strategic model has already achieved impressive sales in China, exceeding 100,000 units. As the global market for new energy vehicles becomes increasingly competitive, the introduction of the AION i60 is set to reinvigorate GAC's international growth.

At the launch event, GAC International's Technical Director, Masato Katsumata, emphasized the vehicle's specifications, as well as the commitment to quality throughout the vehicle development and manufacturing processes. Katsumata, an automotive engineer with over 30 years of experience at Toyota, highlighted that trust in a vehicle's quality is paramount and must be instilled at every stage of development. His extensive background in global automotive R&D provides GAC with a valuable perspective in creating competitive products tailored for diverse international markets.

GAC's commitment to quality spans the entire vehicle lifecycle, from R&D to manufacturing and post-sales service. With 22 years of collaborative experience with Toyota, GAC merges the principles of the Toyota Production System with its manufacturing practices and smart manufacturing technologies to develop the GAC Production System 3.0 (GPS). This advanced manufacturing system is implemented across all GAC facilities worldwide to ensure consistent standards and quality for all global models.

The company continues to develop its core technologies in-house, focusing on smart technology and electrification. Key innovations include the Quark Electric Drive, battery technologies, and ADiMOTION. The AION i60 is built on GAC's internal electric platform designed specifically for battery electric vehicles. This platform also forms the basis for the Toyota bZ3X, showcasing how GAC and Toyota leverage each other’s strengths through joint development in an increasingly electrified industry.

GAC's global competitiveness is the result of systematic development and is bolstered by its commitment to excellence. Exporting products abroad is just the start; the real challenge lies in meeting the stringent quality requirements of diverse global markets. The international launch of the AION i60 is a significant step towards turning these strengths into a global competitive advantage.
