On October 10, 2026, GAC (Guangzhou Automobile Group) in collaboration with its Moroccan partner, M-AUTOMOTIV, launched the event titled "Futurescape in Morocco" in Casablanca on September 24. This notable event marked the official introduction of three new energy models: the GN8 PHEV, HYPETEC HT, and HYPETEC SSR, alongside the debut of the GOVY AirCab, which made its first appearance in Africa. Over 600 attendees witnessed this significant achievement, representing GAC's ongoing expansion in its product lineup within the Moroccan market.
The launch transcended the mere introduction of three new vehicles; it signified GAC's commitment to broadening its portfolio in Morocco, catering to a wider array of sectors, powertrains, and mobility requirements. Earlier in July, GAC had already unveiled three SUV models: the S7 plug-in hybrid, the EMKOO hybrid electric vehicle, and the fully electric EMZOOM. With these additions, GAC’s local offerings now encompass new energy multipurpose vehicles, premium fully electric smart SUVs, and high-performance electric cars.
The GN8 plug-in hybrid enriches GAC's new energy multipurpose vehicle segment with a remarkable combined range of over 1,000 km, effectively addressing the needs of families and businesses alike. The HYPETEC HT model showcases exceptional power through its winged doors and fully electric range, complemented by intelligent technology. Enhancing the brand's performance image, the HYPETEC SSR boasts an impressive output of 1,225 horsepower and can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 1.9 seconds. From internal combustion engines and hybrid electric vehicles to fully electric models, GAC is responding to the diverse mobility needs of Morocco with a more comprehensive lineup.
The event employed the concept of "The GAC Terminal," transforming the venue into a forward-looking transportation hub that integrates products, technology, and immersive experiences. The GOVY AirCab, a significant milestone for GAC in low-altitude mobility, is designed for short-distance urban travel, aerial sightseeing, and the future of urban air mobility. Guests participated as "passengers," experiencing a vision of future mobility through vehicle displays, the AirCab showcase, drone light exhibits, and captivating laser and music performances.
Strategically located at the crossroads of Africa and Europe, Morocco serves as a key hub for GAC's planning in North Africa. Wang Feng, Vice President of GAC International, and Sohail Houmani, General Manager of M-AUTOMOTIV, shared insights into GAC's vision and partnership plans. As the exclusive importer and distributor, M-AUTOMOTIV is set to expand the sales and service network from Casablanca and Tangier to Rabat, Agadir, and El Jadida.
