At the 2021 Guangzhou Auto Show that opened today, GAC Aion, which marks the first anniversary of the brand’s independence, released a brand development strategy involving dual-carbon planning, hybrid improvements expansion, capacity expansion, new technologies, etc. It is reported that GAC Aian will complete the mixed ownership reform in 2022 and choose an opportunity to go public. In addition, the independent battery cell production line will be completed by the end of 2022, and independently developed battery cell technologies such as magazine batteries, super-speed batteries, and sponge silicon negative electrode sheet batteries will be independently mass-produced.

At present, Aian Smart Ecological Factory has achieved 15% of the clean electricity required for production through "photovoltaic + energy storage", and We will continue to increase the proportion to more than 30% through technological transformation, energy conservation and efficiency improvement. At the same time, we will introduce wind power and nuclear power to achieve 100% clean electricity supply, and deeply participate in afforestation. We will build GAC's first zero-carbon factory by 2023, and take practical actions to help the group accelerate the realization of the "double carbon" goal.

At this auto show, GAC will launch the world's first next-generation electronic and electrical architecture - Xingling architecture, which can realize plug-and-play hardware and frequently updated software. The Xingling architecture is composed of the automotive digital image cloud and three core computers: a central computer, a smart driving computer, and an infotainment computer, as well as a regional controller that supports pure electric and hybrid control, coupled with high-speed Ethernet and 5G technologies. Electronic and electrical architecture for centralized computing of car-cloud integration.

At the same time, GAC’s pure electric exclusive platform GEP will evolve to the third generation, combined with GAC Xingling Electronics Electrical architecture, a new product will be launched in 2023, which can realize plug-and-play hardware and frequently updated software, taking the lead in bringing intelligent assisted driving into a new era of L4 level.

In terms of capacity expansion,GAC Aian will complete the expansion of the first factory with a production capacity of 200,000 yuan in early 2022. At the same time, the second factory with a capacity of 200,000 yuan will also be completed and put into production at the end of next year. It will have an annual production capacity of 400,000 yuan in 2023.
