Chinese automaker GAC has introduced the Aion UT, its third electric model under the Aion brand, at the Guangzhou Auto Show. With a focus on refined interiors, advanced safety, and smart technology, the Aion UT is being positioned as a “global model,” signaling its potential launch in international markets.
The Aion UT features a lithium iron phosphate battery developed by GAC-owned Yinpai Battery Technology. While specific battery capacity and range details remain undisclosed, the vehicle is powered by a 100 kW electric motor, enabling a top speed of 150 kph. Compactly designed, the Aion UT measures 4.2 meters in length, 1.8 meters in width, and 1.5 meters in height.
Aesthetic elements include a rounded exterior design, a color-contrasting raised roof, and a unique C-pillar accent, giving the car a distinct profile. Buyers can also customize the vehicle with various wheel designs and color combinations.
Inside, the Aion UT boasts a 0.37-meter central touchscreen and a 0.22-meter digital instrument cluster, enhancing driver and passenger engagement with high-tech features. The vehicle supports smartphone integration through platforms such as HiCar, CarLink, and CarPlay, providing seamless access to navigation, entertainment, and other services. Voice-activated AI technology allows for easy control of navigation, climate settings, and more, ensuring a modern and intuitive user experience.
While the Aion UT is expected to debut in China under the name “Yingwulong,” it will reportedly be priced around 100,000 yuan (€13,000), making it an accessible option in the EV market.
