GAC Motor Has Already Sent 300 Cars to Brazil and Will Start Selling Its Models This First Half of 2025.

Another Chinese automaker is about to enter the Brazilian market with strength. GAC Motor, one of the largest manufacturers in China, will start operating in the country during the first half of 2025. The first batch of 300 cars is already on its way and is expected to arrive in April. The company is betting on 100% electric models, such as the Aion ES sedan, to compete directly with strong names like Toyota Corolla and BYD King.

According to the Webmotors website, the first cars arriving in Brazil are part of the GAC Aion sub-brand, which focuses on electric vehicles. The selected models for this debut are the Aion ES, the compact SUV Aion Y Plus, and the larger SUV Hyptec HT. All are already sold in China and promise competitive prices in Brazil.

The Aion ES is a 100% electric sedan that is 4.81 meters long. It has a motor with 136 horsepower and a range of up to 314 km, according to data from the Brazilian Vehicle Labeling Program (PBEV), as reported by Webmotors. The Aion Y Plus SUV is slightly smaller, at 4.54 meters, but it also has a 136-horsepower motor and can travel up to 318 km on a single charge.

Another highlight is the Hyptec HT, an SUV with a more modern look and gullwing-style rear doors. It will be sold in versions with 245 and 340 horsepower, with a range of up to 362 km on a single charge, according to information from the Autos Segredos website.

Chinese Automaker Wants to Grow Quickly in Brazil

GAC Motor has already prepared for its arrival in Brazil. According to Autos Segredos, the company has partnered with 20 dealership groups, which will open stores in major capitals and large cities across the country. Some of these stores are expected to operate as soon as the cars arrive.

But the company’s plans go beyond that. GAC also intends to launch hybrid and flex hybrid cars in Brazil, made specifically for our market. Moreover, it is already in discussions with three federal universities to create a research center focused on automotive technology — with an emphasis on flex hybrid vehicles.

According to the company, the goal is to have its own factory in Brazil by 2030, with the capacity to produce up to 15 different models in the country. The idea is to offer Brazilians more technological, electric, and affordable cars.
