GAC Expands European Footprint with AION V Launch in Greece
On December 2, 2025, GAC Group made a significant stride into the European electric vehicle market by launching its latest electric SUV, the AION V, in Greece. This marked Greece as the fourth European country to welcome the AION V, following successful launches in Finland, Poland, and Portugal. The introduction of this model underscores GAC's commitment to boosting the adoption of electric vehicles across Europe and aligning with the continent's climate objectives.
Key Features of AION V
The AION V is meticulously designed to cater to priorities surrounding sustainability and safety, offering a plethora of technological advancements and user-centric experiences. One of its outstanding features is its remarkable
five-star Euro NCAP safety rating, ensuring that the vehicle meets high safety standards. Furthermore, the AION V boasts a
WLTP range of 510 kilometers, alleviating concerns regarding long trips. The vehicle also offers fast-charging capabilities, enabling a 10% to 80% battery charge in approximately
24 minutes, making it ideal for both urban and longer journeys.
GAC has also prioritized the longevity and reliability of the AION V by providing an
8-year/160,000-kilometer vehicle warranty alongside an 8-year/200,000-kilometer warranty for the battery itself. These assurances reflect GAC's dedication to durability, ultimately reducing the total cost of ownership for consumers. In tandem with the growing charging infrastructure across Greece, the AION V addresses and mitigates concerns about range anxiety, reassuring customers of its practicality.
Strategic Move in the European Market
The launch of the AION V in Greece plays a pivotal role in GAC's overarching strategy for the European market. This initiative gained momentum following the signing of a crucial global partnership agreement with
Inchcape during the 2024 Paris Motor Show. This collaboration aims to utilize Inchcape's established sales and service network, further complementing GAC's cutting-edge technology and innovative products.
The introduction of the AION V aligns with GAC's
European Market Plan, which emphasizes the importance of the European region by quickly expanding its presence throughout several key countries, including Poland, Portugal, and Finland. GAC is committed to establishing full market coverage across Europe by the year 2028, which is bolstered by continuous improvements in sales channels, service systems, and overall integrative efforts within the industrial chain.
