The grand opening was attended by over 100 distinguished guests, including local distributors, partners, and community leaders. Their presence underscored the importance of this event as a symbol of GAC’s long-term investment in the Libyan market. The showroom itself is a testament to GAC’s premium brand image, blending modern architectural design with a focus on delivering an exceptional customer experience. It will serve as a central hub for displaying vehicles, providing interactive product experiences, and offering a range of after-sales services, ensuring that Libyan consumers receive comprehensive support throughout their vehicle ownership journey.
The introduction of the EMZOOM, EMKOO, and the All-New GS8 models at the event was a clear demonstration of GAC’s ability to cater to the diverse needs of the Libyan market.

His words encapsulated the essence of the showroom’s role in introducing GAC’s innovative products and services to the Libyan people.
This launch not only marks a key moment for GAC but also highlights the strong and enduring relationship between China and Libya, which has been nurtured over 46 years of diplomatic ties. GAC’s presence in Libya further strengthens these ties and demonstrates the company’s strategic vision of expanding its footprint in key international markets. As part of its expansion strategy, GAC aims to uphold its “customer-first” philosophy, which focuses on continually enhancing both product and service quality to gain the trust and loyalty of local consumers.
