We have learned from several channels that the new GAC AION i60 will officially launch in November. GAC AION has already filed this new model with two powertrain options: a range-extended version and a pure electric version. The former uses a 1.5-liter range-extender system, while details for the latter currently only cover its single-motor setup.

Based on its size, GAC AION positions the i60 as a compact SUV. The company expects the starting price to be very competitive, potentially under 140,000 RMB.

Design and Options

Based on previously released filing photos, the range-extended and pure electric versions of the AION i60 share nearly identical exterior designs. Both feature a clean, closed-off front grille. The design adds chrome decorative pieces to the sides of the front bumper.

The vehicle also features a roof rack and multi-spoke wheels. Buyers can choose between hidden and semi-hidden door handles. Some trim levels will even feature a roof-mounted LiDAR unit for advanced driver assistance. At the rear, the AION i60 uses a full-width taillight design with the “AION” logo in the center.

Two Powertrains to Choose From

The AION i60 will offer customers two distinct new energy vehicle solutions. Both versions share the same dimensions (4685/1854/1660 mm) and a 2775 mm wheelbase in a 5-seat layout.

Pure Electric (BEV) Version: The BEV model will offer two different motor options.

• Motor 1: 150 kW max power.
• Motor 2: 165 kW max power.

It will also have three different battery pack options, offering a wide range of choices:

• 47.8 kWh Battery: 400 km of range.
• 62.3 kWh Battery: 530 km of range.
• 75.3 kWh Battery: 650 km of range. (Note: GAC AION has not yet announced the specific test cycle for these range figures.)

Range-Extended (REEV) Version: The REEV model uses a 1.5-liter engine as a range extender.

• Engine Power: 74 kW max power.
• Battery: 29.2 kWh battery pack.
• Pure Electric Range: 160 km. (Note: GAC AION has not yet released electric motor details or the range test cycle.)

Market Positioning and Competitors

As a compact SUV, the AION i60 will enter a fiercely competitive market segment. Its expected competitors include popular plug-in hybrid models like the Geely Galaxy L7 (priced from 115,800 to 169,700 RMB) and the BYD Song PLUS DM-i (priced from 135,800 to 175,800 RMB).

BYD currently dominates the market, with the Song Pro DM, Yuan PLUS, and Sea Lion 05 EV being the top three best-sellers in August.
