GUANGZHOU, China, Jan. 1, 2026 — GAC has released its 2025 overseas performance report, announcing vehicle exports of over 130,000 units—representing a 45% year-over-year increase. Over the past two years, GAC’s international operations have achieved leapfrog growth in both ecosystem development and sales performance.
In 2023, GAC reached its first overseas sales breakthrough with 45,000 units. Exports rose to 90,000 units in 2024. By the end of 2025, exports exceeded 130,000 units (a year-over-year growth of more than 45%), ranking GAC among the top eight Chinese independent brands by export volume. Over two years, GAC’s overseas sales have nearly tripled.
Strong ecosystem-building capabilities underpin this robust momentum. As the first state-owned automaker to expand globally with an integrated energy ecosystem, GAC has remained committed to the vision of “Tech-Driven GAC, Advancing Global Reach with a Full-Chain Ecosystem”. By leveraging high quality, advanced technology, premium services, and a full-value-chain ecosystem, GAC is charting a clear path for global expansion. At the 2025 Bangkok International Motor Show, GAC upgraded its One GAC global strategy to “One GAC 2.0”. Centered on one vision, one goal, one brand image, one localized initiative, and five key measures, this strategy enables more efficient, targeted market deployment and fosters a unified global brand identity.
Guided by One GAC 2.0, localized programs such as the “Thailand Action”, “Brazil Action”, and “Australia Action” have been rolled out. Through five core pillars—product, network, service, intelligent manufacturing, energy ecosystem, and mobility solutions—GAC builds local market presence and drives sales by adhering to the principle of “In Local, For Local, Integrated Locally, Serving Locally, Contributing Locally.”
In 2025, GAC launched five new models in overseas markets and entered 16 new regions (including Brazil, Poland, Portugal, Australia, and Argentina), expanding its footprint to 86 countries and regions. The global sales network grew by 281 outlets to reach 630. KD production in Indonesia and Malaysia commenced on schedule, the Europe KD project is progressing steadily, and five overseas manufacturing plants are now operational.
Building on these achievements, 2026 will be a pivotal year for scaling GAC’s overseas business in both volume and quality. GAC has set an export target of 250,000 units, aiming to create a “second growth curve” following the landmark “Panyu Action” and become a benchmark for the global expansion of Chinese automotive brands.
