Why choose the more popular options when you can stand out with the GAC AION Y Plus
So when the electric vehicle (EV) topic comes up in conversation, many will agree that most people who are switching from the good old internal combustion engine (ICE) to EV, one should go with a cheaper model first to get a feel for it. While most usually suggest a BYD Dolphin or Neta V, I have another option for those who prefer to not be conventional.
I am, of course, referring to the GAC AION Y Plus, which starts from RM103,800, it offers affordability without sacrificing basic features. Plus with its compact but not too compact size and entry level battery specs, it is also not too expensive in the long run with road tax in mind. This makes it a good option for those who simply want to learn what owning an EV is like.
Moreover, one of the biggest concerns with EVs is range anxiety. The GAC AION Y Plus circumvents this with a robust 140kW electric battery ranging from 400 to 500km on a single charge depending on the variant. It also allows for a respectable 8.5 second century sprint time while still being spacious and comfortable.
The GAC AION Y Plus is also equipped with all the latest tech anyone could want, including a comprehensive infotainment screen, 360-degree cameras and autonomous driving capabilities. Naturally, it also puts safety first with a good list of ADAS features and parking aids ensuring both new and experienced drivers alike can easily adapt to an EV lifestyle.
On top of that, as an EV, the GAC AION Y Plus is emissions free, making it a sustainable option for those seeking to reduce their carbon footprint. Not to mention, the fact that this car is one of the more simple EVs out there with less parts and less complications to deal with, it is also a step up from the regular oil changes and servicing that ICE cars require more of.
So in short, the GAC AION Y Plus is an excellent choice for any Malaysian looking to make the switch to an EV. With its attractive price point, and tech, the GAC AION Y Plus is a very good option for anyone looking to switch to the electric side of mobility but don’t want to choose one of the usual options and stand out with your unique choice.
