On July 16, the GAC Group celebrated the rollout of its 30 millionth vehicle from the assembly line. This milestone was achieved in just 29 years, making it the fastest car manufacturer in China to reach this scale. During the event, GAC handed over the keys to the 30 millionth vehicle, a GAC GN8, to Thai action star Tony Jaa. The presence of numerous foreign customers on-site sent a clear signal: internationalization has become GAC's "first growth curve."
The numbers behind this growth curve speak for themselves. In the first half of the year, GAC exported 121,000 vehicles, representing a 132% increase compared to the same period last year, with more than 660 vehicles being shipped abroad each day. Even more remarkable is that foreign sales have nearly tripled in two years, rising from 45,000 units in 2023 to over 130,000 in 2025, and this growth rate is far ahead of the entire industry. Significant achievements, such as topping the sales chart for electric passenger vehicles in Hong Kong and establishing dominance in the classification of Chinese brand passenger vehicles in Bolivia, confirm that this growth is not just about sending more vehicles but is a breakthrough based on quality.
Behind this growth stands GAC's commitment to sustainability. Instead of pursuing short-term volume, its expansion is based on a systematic global strategy. Under the "One GAC 2.0" strategy, GAC has built 4 research and development centers, 7 overseas factories, and 9 warehouses for spare parts worldwide, and has over 746 sales points in 110 countries and regions, achieving full localization from research and development to after-sales service. These early investments are now driving faster and more sustainable growth, creating a cycle where sustainability promotes speed.
Long-term commitment and genuine customer trust form the foundation of this cycle. GAC's 30 millionth customer is from abroad, and word-of-mouth advertising from existing vehicle owners continues to attract new customers; such trust cannot be bought by any price war. President Feng Singya announced that by the end of this year, GAC will open 1,000 sales and service points abroad, bringing "GAC intelligent manufacturing" to a global platform.
Standing at the milestone of 30 million vehicles, GAC has clearly outlined a roadmap for its global expansion: to achieve annual overseas sales of one million vehicles by 2030, with a presence in 120 countries and regions. Thanks to the driving force gained through systematic planning and long-term commitment, this first growth curve continues to propel GAC on its path to becoming a world-class enterprise.
