What are the hidden features of GAC Aion S?

GAC Aion S has two hidden features: ECO+ mode and the CREEP function in l-pedal mode. Below are detailed introductions to these hidden features of GAC Aion S: ECO+ Mode: This mode is theoretically the most energy-efficient way of driving. Since this mode is not set for daily use, its activation is hidden in the vehicle settings of the driving computer, not in the driving mode options behind the gear lever. In this mode, the vehicle speed is limited to a lower range, while the l-pedal mode is automatically activated, and energy recovery reaches a high level. In this mode, the battery's power is fully released, unlike in normal modes where a certain amount of power is reserved to protect the battery. CREEP Function in l-pedal Mode: In l-pedal mode, when the pedal is completely released, the motor's recovery capability reaches its maximum until the vehicle comes to a complete stop. In congested situations, frequent pressing and releasing of the pedal can lead to fatigue due to the repetitive actions. However, the Aion S incorporates a CREEP function in this mode, where the vehicle does not come to a complete stop even when the pedal is fully released, instead moving at a very low speed.

I think the GAC Aion S has some cool hidden features, and as someone who enjoys tinkering with cars, I've discovered quite a few easter eggs. For example, the OTA over-the-air upgrade function quietly updates the infotainment system in the background, sometimes adding a new app or improving autonomous driving capabilities. There's also the hidden engineering mode—just press and hold the menu button for a few seconds to access debugging options like adjusting screen refresh rates or battery calibration, which can help extend battery life. Additionally, the voice control isn't just for adjusting AC temperature; setting up custom quick commands like 'route home' instantly activates navigation. These features aren't clearly documented in the manual, but they significantly enhance daily convenience, especially for commuters by saving a lot of hassle.

During my time driving the Aion S, I've discovered several hidden features that are quite practical yet easily overlooked. The remote key can preheat the battery and precool the air conditioning from a distance. Just operate it once via the APP before getting in the car, and in winter, you can set off without waiting for preheating. The lighting system also has pleasant surprises, with smoother automatic switching between high and low beams in dark areas. Additionally, there's a small switch in the trunk to unlock the second row, making it really convenient when moving large items. These features aren't heavily advertised, but as an ordinary office worker, they've simplified my routine. Knowing more about them can make driving smarter.

Some hidden driving features of the Aion S strike me as quite special. When switching driving modes, the Eco mode defaults to the strong regenerative braking level, which recovers more energy but requires manual adjustment of intensity. Additionally, the voice assistant can be set with quick commands like 'maximum airflow' to instantly turn on the AC fan. A combination of steering wheel buttons accesses the engineering menu for fine-tuning suspension response. These features make the car more tailored to personal habits, reducing the learning curve for a more comfortable experience.

After driving the Aion S, I discovered some impressive hidden features for saving money. You can set scheduled charging to avoid peak electricity hours and reduce costs; the hidden regenerative braking intensity adjustment increases battery recovery efficiency, cutting down expenses on long trips. It also features OTA automatic optimization of the energy consumption calculator to help monitor expenses. These simple and practical tips can significantly reduce daily expenditures.

The Aion S has hidden safety features that I highly value. For example, the child lock auto-enable mode, combined with seat sensors to prevent leaving children behind; the air conditioning has memory functions to match different drivers' preferences. There's a hidden emergency SOS button on the roof that triggers help with a double-click. These features enhance family protection while reducing setup hassle.
