GAC Aion said that its concept car ENO.146 has a wind resistance coefficient of 0.146 cd, the lowest in the world.

GAC Aion became the second new energy vehicle brand after BYD to let lithium iron phosphate batteries pass the pinprick test without catching fire.

Early last month, GAC unveiled its latest battery technology at its Tech Day event, allowing for an energy density of over 280Wh/Kg and a range of over 1,000km.

The two will work together to develop a new driverless new energy model that can be put into scale application from the basic dimensions of wire-controlled chassis, autonomous driving sensors, and system integration.

Attracted by the initial success of Nio and the support of Chinese policy, the battery swap model for electric vehicles is about to see more players.

GAC also plans to make its own brand of new energy vehicles account for more than 36 percent of all sales and hybrid vehicles account for more than 15 percent by 2025.

GAC Aion expects to invest about RMB 500 million in the initiative, which is scheduled to double its capacity by early 2022.

GAC Group announced at a conference on April 9 that it will work with Huawei to develop L4 self-driving cars for mass production in 2024.

Even at low temperatures, the battery with this technology can have a range of 650 kilometers, the company said.

GAC held a meeting with chip suppliers in January and ordered chips for the year according to its annual demand plan, it said.
