The Salvador Caetano Group remains dedicated to our customers, partners, sustainable development, and the principles of energy conservation and environmental protection.”

Both EMZOOM and EMKOO, the first two models introduced by GAC INTERNATIONAL in South Africa, are equipped with powerful engines and advanced technological features, promising South African consumers a comfortable, convenient, and safe driving experience, said GAC INTERNATIONAL.
