This is being done to meet consumer demand. So that buyers do not have to wait long to receive their units.

“Basically, my focus is to be able to produce more than 2,000 units by December, this is the number we are chasing,” Andry added.

It should be noted that the AION UT electric car is one of the vehicle models produced locally. More precisely, at National Assemblers in Purwakarta, West Java.

In the initial stage, GAC Indonesia is targeting a production capacity of up to 20 thousand Electric Vehicle (EV) units per year for all models.

Then with an expansion plan of up to 50 thousand units per year. The first model to be assembled locally is the AION V.

225 Units Handed Over

The event was held at Mantra, Pantai Indah Kapuk (PIK), North Jakarta on Thursday (30/10). It was attended by buyers of GAC Indonesia products.

A total of 22 AION UT units were handed over directly to their owners. Marking the start of the official distribution of the electric car from the Chinese manufacturer.

“Two months ago in September, we released a firm price that has been calculated and considered to be competitive against competitors in the same segment,” said Andry.
