Hong KongJune 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — On June 18, the 2026 Hong Kong International Auto Expo grandly opened. GAC Group, under the theme “Tech GAC, Eco-Driven Global Expansion,” made a stunning appearance with multiple star models from its three product series—GAC, AION, and HYPTEC—officially unveiling the upgraded “Hong Kong ACTION 2.0” strategy and introducing two new models: the new E9 Premium and the AION UT Elite.
Hong Kong is one of the markets with the highest penetration rate of new energy vehicles globally. Currently, GAC has achieved an 11% cumulative market share in Hong Kong, marking a strategic leap from a “follower” to a “leader” in this global benchmark market for new energy, backed by solid market performance.
One year ago, GAC entered Hong Kong with a full-industry-chain ecosystem model, launching the “Hong Kong ACTION 1.0” localization action plan. Building on the past and looking to the future, Wei Haigang officially announced at the press conference: “The Hong Kong ACTION 2.0 strategy is fully upgraded!”
Deepened Services: GAC will continue to expand its service center network, making maintenance, repairs, and original parts replacement more convenient and efficient.
Product Advancement: Tailored to Hong Kong’s road conditions and driving habits, GAC has significantly upgraded the E9, launching the new E9 Premium—featuring a more luxurious cabin, enhanced chassis comfort, and worry-free range. Meanwhile, the AION UT Elite also made its official debut.
Ecosystem Synergy: GAC is continuously building a full-cycle mobility ecosystem covering energy replenishment, digital services, software subscriptions, and travel services.
Energy Assurance: It is expected that 22 charging stations with 88 fast-charging points will be built in collaboration this year, along with interoperability across 32 stations and 102 charging points.
Looking ahead, GAC will steadfastly implement its localization strategy of “In Hong Kong, for Hong Kong, integrate into Hong Kong, serve Hong Kong, and contribute to Hong Kong.” Using Hong Kong as a global bridgehead, GAC will join Hong Kong citizens in forging a greener, smarter, and better mobile future, writing a new chapter in the high-quality global expansion of China’s automotive industry!
