AION UT combines a contemporary design with a spacious interior and advanced intelligence and safety technology. It has a wheelbase of 2,750 mm and an interior space comparable to that of a mid-size sedan. The infotainment system features dual screens: a 14.6-inch touchscreen and an 8.88-inch digital instrument cluster. AION UT meets the highest safety standards, equipped with a double door ring, V-shaped side curtain airbags, and Level 2 ADAS technology.

The range is up to 430 km (WLTP). Charging from 30 to 80% via DC takes 24 minutes. The 0–100 km/h sprint is completed in 7.3 seconds. AION UT is available in two trim levels: Premium and Luxury.

Like the SUV AION V, introduced in Europe last year, AION UT is assembled at Magna’s facility in Graz. Localization improves supply efficiency and market responsiveness, and marks a strategic shift for GAC: from vehicle exports to deeper, localised roots in Europe. Guided by its “In Europe, for Europe” commitment, GAC aims to actively contribute to the European electric mobility ecosystem, through local manufacturing, regional partnerships, and investment in sustainable mobility.
