GAC's AION UT Wins Top Design Prize at Turin's TADA Awards 2026

Turin, Italy – September 16, 2026 -- GAC's AION UT electric SUV has won Best Exterior Design at the 2026 Torino Automotive Design Award, presented during Salone Auto Torino 2026.

Jury praises clean lines over flashy styling

The TADA jury cited the AION UT's "clean, cohesive design and distinctive personality," pointing to its balanced proportions, smooth surfaces and a spacious cabin as evidence of overall design quality without relying on excessive decoration.

Milan design team aimed for a look that won't date

The AION UT was designed by GAC's European design team in Milan. Stéphane Janin, head of GAC's Milan Design Studio, said the goal was a design that wouldn't quickly go out of fashion, achieved by stripping away decorative effects while avoiding a result that feels too cold.
