Aion is a Chinese electric car sub-brand by Guangzhou Automobile Corporation founded in 2018 to compete in the fast-growing Chinese electric car startup company market.
Overview[edit]
Aion is an electric car sub-brand by GAC Group's New Energy division for electric, hybrid, and plug-in hybrid cars sold under the Aion and Trumpchi brands. Aion was founded in 2018 and was shown to the public in November with the reveal of the Aion S at Auto Guangzhou.
Aion and Trumpchi's EVs and hybrids share both the GAC 'G logo' on a blue background and are both sold under the GAC New Energy sub-brand. The electric Trumpchi models won't be sold under the Aion brand as Aion is for original electric cars that are more luxurious and could compete against Tesla.
Products[edit]
The Aion lineup currently consists of one vehicle as of May 2019 with more vehicles such as an SUV and minivan in development.[1]

Partnership with NIO[edit]
In May 2019, GAC and NIO announced they would form a joint venture electric vehicle brand called Hycan.
Hycan later revealed an unnamed electric SUV concept which was essentially an Aion LX with a different front, rear, and wheels.
It was said that Hycan would be NIO's launch into the United States and would be GAC's selling of the Aion LX there.[4]
