GAC Group officially entered the Romanian market on October 27, with the AION UT and AION V opening for pre-order, the company said via official channels.
The launch marks another milestone for GAC's 'One GAC 2.0' globalization strategy taking root in Europe, after the brand built out a regional footprint across multiple countries on the continent.
Romania becomes the latest European market where Chinese NEV brands are planting flags ahead of anticipated tariff and localization pressures, betting that early channel and service presence will pay off as demand matures.
GAC's European expansion reflects a wider pattern in which China's state-backed automakers are pairing aggressive model launches with local partnership and service networks.
