Guangzhou, China – Automotive manufacturer GAC AION has expanded into Hong Kong, opening its first showroom in Hong Kong and marking the brand’s official entry into the market.
The brand launch event in Kowloon Bay featured the introduction of new energy vehicles and highlighted GAC AION’s technological achievements, with GAC’s initiatives to promote the use of electric vehicles(EVs) in Hong Kong.
During the opening ceremony, Wei Haigang, general manager of GAC International, expressed the company’s commitment to providing the best technology and models to Hong Kong consumers. On the other hand, Gu Huinan, general manager of GAC AION, introduced the company’s development history, core technological innovations, then emphasised the importance of Hong Kong as a crucial point in their global strategy.
These efforts that lean into EV usage are in line with Hong Kong actively undertaking diverse measures for decarbonization and there is a steady rise in new energy vehicle purchases.
With this in mind, GAC AION plans to open six showrooms within the year, offering competitive products and services to meet the rising demand. Additionally, the company will invest in 1000V ultra-fast charging stations to combat charging infrastructure shortages, targeting 300 public charging stations by 2028.
The Hong Kong market serves as an integral part of GAC Group’s global layout. Using it as a starting point, GAC AION’s plan would be to expedite the overseas layout of new energy vehicles, advance GAC Group’s internationalisation process, and contribute to the realisation of the “Trillion GAC” blueprint. Simultaneously, GAC AION is committed to driving the worldwide growth of the new energy industry.
