On November 1st, GAC AION officially launched the 2022 AION Y, offering a total of seven models in three different range versions: 410 kilometers, 500 kilometers, and 600 kilometers. The post-subsidy starting price ranges from RMB 109,600 to RMB 157,600.
Since its release in April, the AION Y has achieved a monthly sales record of 5,000 vehicles within six months, despite facing challenges such as “chip shortage” and “pandemic impact.” In October alone, the number of orders exceeded 10,000 vehicles.
Due to the high demand for orders and the current production capacity of the AION Y factory being saturated, the earliest delivery for the 2022 AION Y will be in January 2022.
The changes of the 2022 AION Y mainly focus on the appearance, interior design, and intelligence. Two special colors, “Starry Green” and “Ice Pink,” have been added to the exterior. In terms of intelligence, the 2022 AION Y comes standard with IBCM touchless start, which does not require a start button to start or close the vehicle when getting on or off. Moreover, it has new features such as the four-door one-button lifting, phone Bluetooth key, electric tailgate, one-key remote parking, and long-range calling parking. All models over the 70 intelligent leadership level is equipped with a 2.0㎡ panoramic sunroof.
