Shanghai (Gasgoo)- On March 25, GAC INTERNATIONAL's Thailand plant marked a milestone as the first mass-produced AION V unit rolled off the assembly line, according to a post on the company's WeChat account.
As a key model in GAC Group's global strategy, the production launch not only reinforces the company's commitment to localized manufacturing in Thailand but also serves as a crucial step in advancing its "ONE GAC 2.0" initiative to strengthen global competitiveness.
At the AION V production launch ceremony, Wei Haigang, General Manager of GAC INTERNATIONAL, commended the team's efforts: "I sincerely thank all team members for their dedication. In just 15 months since the plant's construction began, we have successfully achieved mass production of the AION V.
