GAC, a global automotive manufacturer, officially launched its brand in Spain at the historic Palace Hotel in Madrid. At the event, the company debuted two electric vehicles: the AION V SUV and the AION UT hatchback. The launch was attended by journalists, industry stakeholders, and dealer partners.
GAC's entry into Spain is supported by Grupo Invicta, a local automotive company with over 60 years of experience and a nationwide network of 20 dealerships. Initially, GAC products will be available at 29 locations on the Iberian Peninsula, with plans to expand to the Balearic and Canary Islands. Grupo Invicta targets 45 retail locations by the end of 2026 and 58 by 2027.
GAC customers will benefit from a comprehensive after-sales structure managed by Grupo Invicta and backed by GAC Motor Europe's headquarters in Amsterdam. Parts availability is ensured through a European Distribution Center in Rotterdam and a local warehouse stocking over 30,000 parts. Technical support follows a three-tier escalation model from dealer to national importer to GAC Motor Europe's engineering team.
