Dealer Network Expansion

GAC is making a stronger case for its long-term ambitions in Indonesia by expanding to 53 dealer networks across the country. The move suggests the Chinese EV brand is focused not only on sales growth, but also on building a more reliable ownership experience as its customer base continues to expand. That strategy matters because GAC says it has already been used by more than 10,000 customers in Indonesia through mid-month. With that level of adoption, dealer coverage has become a key part of keeping service quality and customer experience consistent across different cities. Dealer expansion is now part of the brand strategy CEO GAC Indonesia Andry Ciu said the company sees each new customer as a new responsibility. He emphasized that the dealer network must keep growing so the promised service standards can be delivered consistently nationwide. According to Andry, the expansion also reflects a commitment to strengthening public trust. As electric vehicles gain wider acceptance, GAC is treating distribution growth as both a business move and a response to rising market expectations. Sales momentum is improving GAC’s business performance in Indonesia has also been moving in a positive direction. Based on data from the Indonesia Automotive Industry Association, or GAIKINDO, wholesale sales reached 3,399 units in January-May 2026. That volume represents about 0.9 percent of total national car sales. While the share remains modest, GAC was among the brands with the strongest year-on-year wholesale growth, posting an 84.2 percent increase over the same period.
