In partnership with Tan Chong Group, GAC INTERNATIONAL will collaborate deeply in areas such as vehicle sales, local car assembly, and after-sales service.
The All New GS8 and the All New M8, the first two models introduced to the Vietnamese market, have already garnered significant attention from local consumers. The All New M8, GAC's flagship MPV, is designed for both business and family use, boasting an imposing exterior and a powerful interior. The vehicle is equipped with over 20 L2 advanced driver assistance features, significantly enhancing active safety, and excels in intelligent parking capabilities.
