FactThe Aion LX's roof carries solar panels — not to charge the battery, but to passively heat or cool the cabin on their own.
The Aion LX, unveiled at Auto Shanghai in April 2019 with pre-sales from that August and production from October 2019, was the second model sold under GAC's New Energy Aion sub-brand (before Aion became its own separate make), a mid-size electric crossover SUV.

Front-motor, front-wheel drive; wheelbase 2,920 mm (115.0 in), length 4,786 mm (188.4 in, 4,835 mm/190.4 in for LX Plus), width 1,935 mm (76.2 in), height 1,685 mm (66.3 in), curb weight 2,040-2,180 kg (4,497-4,806 lb).

Owning one
We don’t estimate running costs for a car like this. What it costs depends on its condition, its specialist and how it is driven, and an average would mislead.
