Gasgoo Munich- As work resumes after the Lunar New Year and a new policy halving the purchase tax on new energy vehicles takes effect, ARCFOX is leading the charge with a major incentive package. The automaker announced a subsidy campaign offering up to 25,000 yuan, covering tax offsets, consumer vouchers, and lifetime free maintenance. Spanning its three core models, the move aims to unlock demand in the Year of the Horse.
Starting January 1, 2026, the purchase tax exemption for new energy vehicles shifted to a 50% reduction, capped at 15,000 yuan per passenger vehicle. The change has left some consumers facing higher costs. ARCFOX's subsidy policy targets this market shift directly. With a maximum subsidy of 25,000 yuan—far exceeding the tax gap for standard models—it aims to ease the financial burden on buyers.

The subsidies cover ARCFOX's three core models: the all-new Alpha T5, Alpha S5, and ARCFOX T1, catering to families, younger buyers, and practical commuters. The Alpha T5 targets family users, featuring BAIC's Shenqing range-extender technology and urban NOA autonomous driving, starting at 104,800 yuan. Positioned as a pure electric sport coupe, the Alpha S5 boasts a 0-100 km/h time of 3.7 seconds and starts at a limited-time price of 102,800 yuan. The ARCFOX T1, priced from 59,800 yuan, offers a segment-leading wheelbase and high value for daily commuting. All three models come standard with CATL batteries.
As BAIC New Energy's core brand, ARCFOX sold over 160,000 vehicles in 2025, doubling sales for the third consecutive year. December alone saw over 24,000 units delivered—a 103% year-on-year surge. This early-year subsidy campaign extends its customer-first philosophy while responding rapidly to market demand.

Industry insiders note that ARCFOX's policy not only lowers the barrier to ownership but also injects momentum into the new energy vehicle market at the start of the year. The benefits are valid until February 28, 2026. Interested buyers can visit the ARCFOX app or authorized dealers for details.
