Amazing value AND 300+ miles. 180kW charging… plus a built-in freezer?! 🍦⚡
In this episode Sarah Aubrey (@ElectrifyThis ) and Tom Gan (@LudicrousFeed ) get an early look at the GAC Aion V, a mid-size electric SUV that is coming to the UK (available to pre-order from 23 April 2026).
Known as the “Chinese Toyota,” GAC have ensured that the Aion V arrives British-proofed with suspension tuned for UK roads, improved repairability, and a competitive starting price.
But the real question, is it any good?!
From rapid 180kW charging and a 300+ mile range, to one of the most unusual features we’ve ever tested (yes… the freezer), we put it through its paces to see if this could be a genuine EV bargain or another buzzy newcomer.
⚡ Key Specs:
Starting price: £36,450
Battery: 75.26 kWh (LFP)
Range: ~317 miles (WLTP)
DC charging: up to 180kW
