4. GAC Motors review
You might still be considering whether to buy a GAC car or not although the GAC Motors car prices in Nigeria are much affordable. Let us help you with some reviews about GAC Motor products as follow.
According to the world reputed ranking organization - J.D. Power, GAC Motors is the best car brand in its home market with the fastest-growing rate and top-performing quality. Its releases also get commendations from famous press bodies, including "Impressive Worldwide Debut" for GAC GS7 SUV from Forbes magazine and "Innovation for the Future" for GAC GS4 from Yahoo Finance.
The GAC GA4 design in its launch day
Being a newcomer to the auto market, GAC Motors is finding ways to distinguish itself from senior players. Its philosophy for manufacturing is eco-friendly and innovative with cutting-edge technologies. The adoption of hi-tech can help the brand to improve its car quality and lower production cost, thus offering customers with better deals.
Having said that, GAC cars also reveal some weaknesses that the automaker needs to work on. The very first thing is the engine power which can be considered limited when compared to its competitors. Though the company planned to co-operate with such experienced producers, the current results aren't improved much.
Another problem lies in the inconsistent styling clues on the design. On a few models, the panel gaps look rather rigid. Moreover, while some buttons are well-built, other details felt flimsy and cheap.
How do you feel about a GAC GA3S interior?
Before buying these models, take into consideration of their both pros and cons to have a wise decision!
