Within this year, GAC Group will initiate the mass - production, launch, and sales of China's first L3 autonomous driving vehicle model and the offline delivery of the industry's first pre - installed mass - produced L4 autonomous driving vehicle model. At the beginning of 2026, GAC will become the first domestic automaker to steadily promote the large - scale operation of L4 autonomous driving products.
By continuously building "Xingling Intelligent Mobility" and deepening GAC's "Intelligent Mobility 2027" Action Plan, GAC Group will achieve a leading position in intelligent driving in the first echelon in China in 2025 and enter the global first echelon in terms of product intelligent driving level and R & D capability in 2027.
Fully Promote Equal Access to Intelligent Driving and Win the Second Half of the Intelligent Revolution

Currently, artificial intelligence is driving the transformation of intelligent driving technology from scene recognition to scene understanding, entering a new stage of end - to - end high - order intelligent driving. Therefore, GAC Group has increased the application of artificial intelligence, iteratively upgrading the intelligent technology brand including intelligent driving and intelligent cockpit - the ADiGO Intelligent Driving and Connectivity Ecosystem - to version 6.0 and giving it a new Chinese name - "Xingling Intelligent Mobility", which implies that GAC will use more flexible and intelligent technologies to open a new chapter in future mobility for users. Meanwhile, as intelligent driving evolves from rule - based segmented intelligent driving to AI - driven one - stage end - to - end high - order intelligent driving, the ADiGO PILOT intelligent driving system will be upgraded to ADiGO GSD, becoming the "second brain of the driver" that can think actively and has transparent logic.
Next, under the guidance of the three - year "Panyu Action", GAC will deepen the "Intelligent Mobility 2027" Action Plan, fully leverage the GAC GSD to develop intelligent driving technology, and make every effort to promote equal access to intelligent driving. The goal is for GAC's product intelligent driving level to remain in the first echelon in China in 2025 and for its product intelligent driving level and R & D capability to enter the global first echelon in 2027.
Three GAC Brands Are Given Different Missions
The three self - owned brands of GAC will be given different missions. Hyper is positioned as a leader in intelligent driving, and all its products are standard - equipped with high - order intelligent driving. All newly launched products will be standard - equipped with urban NDA (Navigation Driving Assistance System). Trumpchi and Aion are positioned as popularizers of intelligent driving. All their products are equipped with intelligent driving and automatic parking, and all mainstream models are equipped with high - order intelligent driving.
On that day, the first masterpiece after the brand renewal of GAC Hyper - the Hyper HL - also started pre - sales. The new car is available in two power forms: pure - electric and extended - range, and two layouts: five - seat and six - seat, with a total of 6 versions. The pre - sale price ranges from 279,800 to 329,800 yuan. The Hyper HL is positioned as a "new luxury family intelligent SUV", with a body size of 5126*1990*1750mm and a wheelbase of 3088mm. It is equipped with luxury configurations such as dual zero - gravity seats and a smart digital chassis, as well as leading intelligent technologies such as the "Night Vision of the Dark" military - grade night vision system and GAC's new GSD high - order intelligent driving system, providing a mobile luxury travel space for elite families.
It is worth mentioning that in the second half of last year, two models, the Aion Tyrannosaurus (second - generation AION V) and the Aion RT, were the first to popularize high - order intelligent driving with lidar in the 150,000 - yuan class, allowing many young people who love high - tech to enjoy equal access to intelligent driving. Meanwhile, to allow car owners to use intelligent driving functions with confidence and accelerate the popularization of intelligent driving functions, Zhongcheng Insurance under GAC will launch exclusive intelligent driving insurance for owners of Hyper, Trumpchi, and Aion at the end of March, with a maximum coverage of 3 million yuan. Car buyers can enjoy this insurance starting from now, further alleviating consumers' concerns.
Accelerate the Mass - Production of Driverless Vehicles and Make the Latest Progress in the Flying Car Field
GAC Group announced that it will mass - produce and launch the country's first L3 autonomous driving passenger car in the fourth quarter of this year and plans to accelerate the mass - production of L3 autonomous driving products in 2026. In the field of L4 driverless vehicles, the first pre - installed mass - produced L4 driverless vehicle model jointly developed by GAC and DiDi Autonomous Driving will be delivered offline within this year, and large - scale operation is planned to be achieved at the beginning of 2026, and a closed - loop business ecosystem of "AI + Intelligent Manufacturing + Operation" will be built.
In 2027, GAC will launch L4 driverless vehicle models for individual users and enter the global market. GAC's breakthroughs in the L3 and L4 fields are due to the continuous promotion of the "Intelligent Mobility 2027 Action Plan". Currently, through Ruqi Mobility and Pony.ai, GAC operates L4 Robotaxis in Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, and the Guangdong - Macao In - Depth Cooperation Zone in Hengqin, with a cumulative mileage of over 40 million kilometers. Meanwhile, the L2 intelligent driving service covers nearly 1.4 million users, accumulating nearly 4 billion kilometers of data and technical experience, which lays a solid foundation for GAC to achieve equal access to intelligent driving.
Qiji Automobile, incubated by GAC Group in the commercial vehicle field, has mass - produced the world's first L4 Robobus and plans to promote at least 100 units in Guangzhou this year. Meanwhile, GAC will expand its intelligent capabilities to the fields of flying cars and humanoid robots. Its flying car brand, GOVY, has launched two products, the GOVY AirCar and the GOVY AirJet, and aims to start pre - orders within this year.
GAC's third - generation embodied intelligent humanoid robot, GoMate, has attracted much attention since its launch in 2024. It is planned to achieve mass - production of self - developed components in 2025 and conduct demonstration applications in production lines and industrial parks of GAC Trumpchi and GAC Aion. Small - batch production of the whole machine is planned for 2026, and large - scale mass - production will be gradually expanded.
Accelerate the Integration of AI and Intelligent Cockpit
GAC Group regards intelligence as the core driving force of "Technological GAC" and accelerates the integration of AI and the intelligent cockpit to create the "best partner" for the intelligent driving revolution. Empowered by AI, the intelligent cockpit has evolved into a mobile intelligent terminal with perception, thinking, and service capabilities, achieving a comprehensive evolution of the four core thinking abilities of perception and understanding, learning and memory, generation and planning, and service execution.
This year, GAC will mass - produce the multi - modal interaction system HMI 6.0, providing a more convenient flow - field interaction experience and realizing cross - terminal interconnection between mainstream brand mobile phones and the intelligent cockpit. By 2027, GAC's products will become empathetic mobile life companions, bringing users a full - scenario, fully intelligent emotional interaction experience.
In the next three years, under the guidance of the "Panyu Action" and the "Intelligent Mobility 2027" Action Plan, GAC will be user - demand - oriented, with artificial intelligence and data - driven as the core, fully develop the intelligent field, promote equal access to intelligent driving, enable global consumers to enjoy the most advanced intelligent driving technology, and showcase the strength and charm of Chinese intelligent driving!
