GAC Debuts at the 138th Canton Fair, Showcasing Technology and Culture as Dual Engines Driving Global Expansion
Guangzhou, China – October 17, 2025 – The 138th Canton Fair officially commenced on October 15 with a grand opening ceremony in Guangzhou, highlighting cutting-edge innovation and cultural integration under the theme "Where Craft Meets Technology." Among the standout participants, Guangzhou Automobile Group Co., Ltd. (GAC) made a commanding presence, showcasing its strategic advancements in automotive technology and its cultural heritage fusion as key drivers of its global expansion.
At this Autumn Canton Fair, GAC presented three flagship models—the AION UT, S7, and HPYTEC HL—underscoring the company’s innovative automotive capabilities. Complementing the vehicle displays were GAC’s achievements in building a robust energy ecosystem, signaling the company’s commitment to sustainable and smart mobility solutions. This year, GAC emphasized a multidimensional approach by deeply integrating Lingnan cultural heritage and elements from the National Games, thus demonstrating the synergy of technology globalization, ecosystem globalization, and culture globalization.
The exhibition’s highlight was the immersive experience offered at GAC’s booth. Visitors were invited to explore smart mobility technology through dedicated vehicle showcases paired with a VR immersive technology zone, as well as detailed plans for global energy storage solutions. This interactive setup allowed global buyers and exhibitors to engage intimately with GAC’s vision for technology-driven mobility.
Moreover, as the official automotive partner of major sporting events—including the 15th National Games, the 12th National Games for Persons with Disabilities, and the 9th National Special Olympic Games—GAC uniquely positioned itself at the intersection of technology, lifestyle, and culture. Notably, GAC was the only automotive brand participating in the "138th Canton Fair Music & Cuisine Festival," where it created an integrated lifestyle space combining smart mobility, Cantonese cuisine, and interactive activities. Through dynamic displays of models such as the M8, AION UT, and AION V, showcased in mobile space scenarios, the brand transformed these vehicles into "mobile reception rooms," vividly illustrating new dimensions of human-vehicle interaction and experiences to visitors from around the globe.
GAC’s global footprint continues to expand steadily. The automaker has established an international network that spans 85 countries and regions, comprised of more than 570 sales and service outlets, five overseas manufacturing plants, and seven transit warehouses. This solid infrastructure supports a mature business model that balances vehicle exports with localized operations, enhancing customer engagement worldwide.
From January to September 2025, GAC exported 92,000 vehicles, with over 92% of these shipments attributed to self-owned brands, marking a year-on-year export growth of 16.5%. Looking forward, GAC plans to intensify its focus on global customer needs by optimizing its product portfolio and service experiences. By delivering more competitive models alongside market-sensitive service systems, the company aims to create a full-cycle, closed-loop customer experience—from product delivery to satisfaction—further reinforcing GAC’s competitive edge on the international stage.
This year’s participation in the 138th Canton Fair has reinforced GAC’s status as a forefront innovator in the automotive industry, where technology and culture combine seamlessly to fuel its ambitious global expansion goals.
