General Manager of GAC International Americas, Wu Bingcheng, also spoke at the event, highlighting Uruguay's importance to the company's global strategy. " We are very excited to officially enter the Uruguayan market today. We are grateful for the support of our local partner, Lestido Group, who has been instrumental in making this launch possible. We understand that Uruguayan consumers have a strong demand for high-quality, high-performance, and environmentally-friendly vehicles, and we are committed to providing top-notch products and services. We aim to make GAC the most preferred Chinese automotive brand among Uruguayan consumers," said Mr. Wu.
