CG Motors Formally Launches Flagship AION EV Showroom in Thapathali

The modern glass exterior of the newly inaugurated GAC AION flagship showroom in Thapathali, Kathmandu.

The grand opening marks a major milestone for the brand’s presence in Nepal’s rapidly expanding electric vehicle market. Specifically, Mr. Nirvana Chaudhary, Managing Director of CG Corp Global, formally inaugurated the facility. He was joined by Mr. Raymon Wong and other high-level representatives from GAC International and GAC AION.

This state-of-the-art hub replaces the previous facility. Unfortunately, recent nationwide protest unrest severely damaged that original building. Executives noted that the reopening symbolizes a renewed, stronger commitment. Consequently, they aim to introduce cleaner, smarter, and world-class premium mobility solutions across Nepal.

A Unified Hub for Premium Sales and Support

Located in the prominent automotive corridor of Thapathali, the new flagship center offers a seamless, end-to-end customer experience.

  • All-In-One Facility: The showroom integrates new vehicle displays, personalized sales consultations, and comprehensive after-sales technical support entirely under one roof.
  • Interactive Experience: Customers can book supervised test drives for the latest smart models. Additionally, they can interact with experts to understand GAC’s proprietary battery safety innovations.
  • Financing & Consultation: On-site advisors actively guide premium buyers through local vehicle financing structures and insurance setups.

The Flagship Lineup: AION V Specifications

The absolute centerpiece of the new Thapathali showroom is the AION V. Engineers specifically built this premium, powerful electric SUV for extended highway cruising and demanding road dynamics.

  • Battery & Driving Range: The luxury variant carries a large 75.3 kWh battery pack. As a result, it achieves an exceptional driving range of up to 650 km on a single charge under NEDC standards.
  • Powertrain Performance: An efficient 100 kW electric motor drives the front axle. Therefore, it successfully pushes out 240 Nm of immediate torque.
  • High Ground Clearance: Boasting a robust 185 mm ground clearance, the SUV easily handles unpredictable road surfaces. For example, it smoothly navigates rough highway patches outside the Kathmandu Valley.

The Urban Smart Option: AION Y

Alongside the flagship SUV, the showroom prominently features the AION Y. This highly stylish, practical electric vehicle custom-tailors perfectly to urban families and modern city lifestyles.

Charging Network and Ecosystem Expansion

To back up its growing product portfolio, CG Motors heavily prioritizes nationwide infrastructure development.

Furthermore, active investment plans are underway to expand this fast-charging grid even deeper. Soon, the network will reach regional highways and secondary tourist hubs over the coming years.
