Acquaintance With AION HT, BYD Dolphin And MG4 EV Strong Challenger Electric Crossover

JAKARTA Guangzhou Auto Show 2024, which took place on November 15-24, is a stage for automotive manufacturers to showcase their latest innovations.

One of the main highlights comes from the GAC Group through the AION business line, which is preparing to launch a new electric hatchback as a serious challenger to BYD Dolphin and MG4 EV, Drive reported on Thursday, November 14.

This latest electric hatchback is specially designed for urban mobility with a modern and elegant look. The front features an electric car without a grip, equipped with a sleek light that gives a futuristic impression. The dynamic body design without a sharp curve reinforces a simple but stylish impression, while the charging door is located on the front side, and its door handle is still traditionally designed with a prominent black pillar.

In dimensions, this hatchback has a length of 4,270 mm, a width of 1,850 mm, a height of 1,575 mm, and a wheelbase of 2,750 mm. The weight ranges from 1,510 to 1,540 kg and uses a 17-inch rim.

In terms of performance, AION UT relies on a single permanent magnetic synchronous electric motor with a peak power of 100 kW (134 hp). This car is powered by an LFP battery capable of traveling up to 600 km in one charge, and has a maximum speed of 150 km/hour.

With prices estimated below 100,000 yuan or around Rp. 219 million, AION UT is ready to tease consumers in the Chinese market. Given that AION already has a presence in Indonesia, it is interesting to wait for whether this model will also be launched in the country.
