According to the company’s introduction, the all-new logo is inspired by the brand's English name “AION”. It is an artistic combination of the brand name's first two letters—“A” and “I”, rendering a visual effect of a soaring arrow, which stands for a robust development of AI technologies. Besides, “AI” is also the Chinese pinyin of “love”, embodying a romantic blessing to the world.

At the launch ceremony, the NEV maker also launched a new high-end product series: Hyper. In the future, all Hyper models will bear AION's freshly launched logo, covering such segments as the supercar, coupe, SUV, and MPV.
