Winning customers’ trust worldwide depends on the AION i60’s specifications and,
above all, on quality at every stage of R&D and manufacturing. At the launch, Masato
Katsumata, CTO of GAC International, detailed the model’s development philosophy."
Quality is the foundation of trust and must be built into every stage of vehicle
development," he said. As a veteran engineer with over 30 years at Toyota, Katsumata
brings extensive international automotive R&D experience and a global engineering
perspective to GAC’s product development. This reflects GAC’s efforts to build more
competitive products from the start of R&D and tailor them to diverse overseas markets.

GAC’s commitment to quality spans the full vehicle lifecycle, from R&D and manufacturing
to service. Drawing on 22 years of close collaboration with Toyota, GAC combined
the core lean principles of the Toyota Production System with its own manufacturing
practices and smart manufacturing technology to develop version 3.0 of the GAC Production
System (GPS). GAC has implemented GPS 3.0 at all its plants worldwide to ensure 
consistent manufacturing standards and quality across its global models.

GAC continues to develop its full stack of core technologies in-house, spanning 
intelligent technologies and electrification. Its innovations include Quark Electric
Drive, the Magazine Battery and ADiMOTION. The AION i60 is built on GAC’s in-house
AION Electric Platform, designed specifically for battery-electric vehicles. The
platform also underpins the Toyota bZ3X. The shared platform demonstrates GAC’s 
engineering capabilities and illustrates how the two companies build on each other’s
strengths through joint development as the industry electrifies.

GAC’s global competitiveness stems from years of systematically building its capabilities.
Taking products overseas is the starting point. The real test is whether their quality
can meet the exacting demands of diverse markets worldwide. The AION i60’s overseas
debut is an important step in turning those strengths into a competitive advantage
worldwide.
