The Evolution of the GS3
The All New GS3 EMZOOM is the latest version of GAC’s GS3 crossover model, serving as the entry-level vehicle in their lineup. This updated version represents the evolution of GAC’s crossover line, combining attractive design, spacious interiors, advanced technology, and impressive performance at an affordable price.
Unveiled in China last December 2022, the GS3 EMZOOM is a trendy and smart SUV that is perfect for the modern generation who are always on the move. It showcases GAC’s bold and futuristic design language, offering a unique style, advanced technology, and an efficient drivetrain.
Striking Design and Ample Space
GS3 EMZOOM’s overall design showcases GAC’s new design language – a sporty and futuristic industrial aesthetic with sharp edges, geometric textures, and a dynamic stance that turns heads on city roads. It is equipped with 19-inch alloy wheels and a Sporty Body Kit, exclusive to the top GL variant.
The front of the GS3 EMZOOM boasts a Flying Wing Front Grille and Laser-Eye LED headlights, giving it a sporty yet sleek and futuristic appearance. The sides feature arc shadow blades that lead to its stylish light dart tail lamps.
Inside, the GS3 EMZOOM combines trendy aesthetics with functionality and comfort. The futuristic design extends to the vehicle’s advanced technological features, including dual screens, a multi-function steering wheel, leather seats, wireless charging, and futuristic AC vents. A sunroof with electric shades provides ample daylight and an airy cabin experience. The spacious cabin offers generous legroom and shoulder space for a comfortable ride.
Apart from striking visuals and futuristic interior features, GS3 EMZOOM offers more space compared to its competitors in the sub-compact crossover segment. It has ample storage spaces and compartments for up to 21 items throughout the vehicle and a spacious luggage compartment that expands when the rear seats are folded flat. The convenience of a power tailgate makes loading items hassle-free.
