Editor's Review:
With their initial market appearances happening around October last year during our country's brand launch wave period, Gac faced tough competition for many MPV users, however a recent massive order of over 20,000 units gives strong signs the company is to be successful here.
The key factors they offer include improved technology in various areas including driving. As we watch them unfold on the market stage, these vehicles are sure to impress and show off GAC's innovative engineering prowess.
