Aion V

Summary

The Aion V is a new all-electric mid-sized SUV from new Chinese marque Aion – the brand was founded in 2017 but the V will be its first foray into the UK market.

Aion is a sub-brand of GAC, the fifth-largest automotive manufacturer in China. Distributor Jameel Motors has been signed up to bring the Chinese brand to customers.

The V SUV – set to rival established mid-sized electric SUVs like the Renault Scenic E-Tech and Toyota bZ4X – has only just arrived in the UK, and we don’t have any UK-based reviews of the model to display or aggregate just yet. Once we have gathered review and running cost data, we will give the SUV an Expert Rating score. Check back soon!

Independent economy and emissions ratings from Green NCAP

No eco rating

As of April 2026, the Aion V has not been assessed by Green NCAP.

The Green NCAP programme measures exhaust pollution (which is zero for an electric car) and energy efficiency. Electric cars are much more energy-efficient than combustion cars, so the Aion V is likely to score very highly in Green NCAP testing if and when it takes place. Check back again soon.
