In a testament to its unwavering commitment and growing popularity among Filipino car enthusiasts, GAC Motor Philippines has proudly announced an astounding 7-month stretch of record-breaking sales performance, showcasing an impressive year-over-year growth of 276%. The company successfully sold a total of 825 units within this period, solidifying its position as a rising star in the automotive industry.

Franz Decloedt, the esteemed Marketing Director of Astara Philippines, made this triumphant announcement during the GAC Discovery Drive Fest held at Glorietta 2, Ayala Center. This three-day event captivated visitors with a dynamic display of GAC Motor vehicles, providing them the opportunity to experience firsthand the innovation, quality, and craftsmanship that define the brand.

GAC Motor’s commitment to delivering cutting-edge vehicles tailored to the evolving preferences of the Filipino market has been the driving force behind this remarkable sales trajectory.”

Astara Philippines’ Managing Director, Raoul Picello, inaugurated the event with a ribbon-cutting ceremony, graced by special guests and stakeholders. “I extend my heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has contributed to our success story – our valued customers, supportive partners, and our dedicated team members who have relentlessly worked towards this achievement,” Picello shared.

To commemorate this momentous achievement and maintain the upward momentum, GAC Motor unveiled the eagerly anticipated all-new GS8 4WD 7-seater SUV at the GAC Discovery Drive Fest. This groundbreaking addition to the GAC Motor lineup is poised to invigorate customer demand for the brand’s flagship SUV. With its introduction in the Philippine market, the GS8, initially offered in 2WD, now boasts an optional 4WD variant, a response to the discerning customers seeking a premium SUV capable of off-road adventures.

Decloedt further remarked, “The GS8 has enjoyed substantial success since its Philippine debut and remains one of our top-selling models. Its meticulous design exudes confidence on the road and resonates with customers in pursuit of distinction and refinement within their SUV experience.”

This full-size seven-seater SUV effortlessly blends aesthetics with functionality, presenting an all-encompassing package of style, quality, safety, and reliability. The new 4WD variant builds upon the features of its 2WD counterpart, incorporating enhancements like versatile drive modes for diverse terrains, an immersive 10-speaker Alpine Sound System, and a ventilated front central armrest compartment.

As an exclusive offering to celebrate this achievement, the All-New GS8 4WD SUV will be available at a special introductory price of PhP 2,548,000 — and that’s with a PhP 100,000 discount valid until September 30, 2023.
