GAC's New Space Concept Is A Hydrogen Minivan With An All-Grille Face And A Lounge-Like Interior

GAC launched the new Space concept in China, featuring an aerodynamic shape, futuristic styling cues, a lounge-like interior, and a hydrogen powertrain. The cabin is styled after a futuristic living room since the concept is capable of Level 4 autonomy. GAC claims the interior design was inspired by "a popular activity among ancient Chinese intellectuals who usually sat by a winding stream and compose poems before picking up a floating cup". GAC didn't reveal any technical details about the hydrogen powertrain of the concept. GAC's motor has a fuel consumption of 0.84 kg of hydrogen per 100 km. The GAC Space was shown during the 2022 GAC Tech Day event at the automaker's R&D center in Guangzhou, China. The concept is not destined for production, although some of its design features could be infused in future production models.
