GAC's global website is currently leading with the first wave of UK customers for the AION V electric SUV. One early buyer, a Chinese expat surnamed Xu, says she had doubts about untested EV brands in Britain until relatives in China — who have run their own AION V for nearly two years — vouched for it; she test-drove the car at the brand's new UK flagship store and ordered on the spot, leaving her family with one AION V on each side of the world.

Local households are signing up too. A couple from Swansea among the first owners praised the cabin finish and value for money, and credited the UK-exclusive "AION Great 8 Promise" — an eight-year bundle covering the full vehicle warranty, scheduled maintenance, roadside assistance and MOT servicing — along with an expanding dealer network and a UK-based contact centre, for removing the risk of choosing a new brand.

Elsewhere on the site, GAC is promoting an extreme chassis-test series for the AION i60: episode one puts the SUV through a fishhook maneuver at 135 km/h, while episode two weaves it between four extra-long buses spaced 30 meters apart at 60 km/h. The page also flags an appearance at ADIHEX in Abu Dhabi (booth A-100, ADNEC Centre, 28 August–6 September 2026) and football-themed community storytelling in Mexico.

Rounding it out are the brand's overseas lineup — spanning the S7, AION EVs, the M8 MPV and the GS8 SUV — plus news teasers including the 30-millionth vehicle rolling off GAC's line and a new partnership between GAC Australia and Sydney FC.
