After test driving these in China, I think you will want their sportscars and new energy vehicles
It was hard to miss the excitement in the voice of Chu Song, the frontman of GAC Motor for the international market, including the Philippines.
"We will make the proper announcements in due time," she said with a wry smile. She is a pro who knows how to manage information going to the press. One of the noticeable takeaways from the partnership with the two Japanese car brands, aside from the knowledge transfer, is the practice of being on time, all the time, and the cleanliness of all GAC facilities, whether it is the tech museum, R&D buildings, or manufacturing plants. And unlike other Chinese auto plants I have seen, the last part did not feel like a sweep-the-dirt-under-the-rug job-because-we-have-guests kind of thing, but a discipline the company adheres to daily.
Next month, the twin-motor, zero-emission roadster Enpulse will get a production model after three years of development. Do not yawn because they also have the GOVE one-seater flying vehicle; a space-age, lightweight, and high-performing carbon fiber rotor motor built by Aion and the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation; and the Quark Electric Drive Technology that lets a vehicle go from 0-100 km/h in 1.9 seconds, to name a few.
There is the M8 Grand Master. It is a luxury seven-seater minivan with a grille that looks like the mane of a lion, a 14.6-inch touchscreen in the front row, a 15.6-inch monitor in the two-seater second row with ottoman and massage captain’s seats, a panoramic sunroof, and two engine options – a 2.0L turbo gas engine and a 2.0L hybrid system.
A noteworthy vehicle, and what could be a halo model for GAC PH, is the Aion Hyper GT. It is a luxury four-door electric sedan with wing doors and Level 2 + autonomous driving capability . What is great about this model is the electric powertrain that lets it go from 0-100 km/h in 4.9 seconds. An 800-volt charging system gives it a 450-kilometer range in just 15 minutes. Its Chinese Yuan price converted is PHP 2.027 million.
