What are the hidden features of the GAC Aion S?

The following are the hidden features of the GAC Aion S: 1. 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, rather than in the driving mode options behind the gear lever. In this mode, the speed is limited to a lower range, while the I-pedal mode is automatically activated, and energy recovery reaches the highest level. In this mode, the battery's power is fully released, unlike in the normal mode where a certain amount of power is reserved to protect the battery. 2. CREEP Function in I-pedal Mode: In I-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 traffic, frequent pressing and releasing of the pedal can lead to fatigue. However, the Aion S adds 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've been driving the GAC Aion S for a while now and really love its hidden features, like unlocking some practical modes through button combinations. For example, holding down the volume and mode buttons on the steering wheel for a few seconds enters a diagnostic mode that displays battery health information, which is very helpful when planning long trips. Additionally, in the settings menu of the central control screen, there's a developer option that's hard to find—you need to tap the version number multiple times to activate it. Inside, you can customize energy consumption displays or adjust charging speed limits. I often use this to optimize range, since saving money with an electric car is a big deal. These little features aren't very obvious but can significantly enhance the driving experience. I only learned them thanks to a friend.

As an Aion S owner, I've discovered a few hidden tricks that make daily driving smoother. One involves the headlight control—under specific driving conditions, lightly tapping the wiper stalk can adjust the brightness level of the lights to suit different lighting conditions. Another is during music playback: holding down the source button for 10 seconds directly activates Bluetooth reconnection mode, skipping the hassle of manual setup. These features are buried deep in the system, and I only found them through owner forum shares. After testing, they really work. A reminder to everyone: safety first when exploring—don't get distracted while driving. It's best to park first before trying anything to avoid mishaps affecting your drive.

The hidden features of the Aion S mostly involve personalized settings. Let me give you an example: After entering the vehicle, press the brake pedal three times consecutively before starting the engine, and a quiet driving mode will be automatically activated, reducing tire and wind noise, making suburban drives super quiet. This feature is very family-friendly, especially when children are sleeping. Additionally, in the air conditioning interface, long-pressing the temperature area displays real-time outdoor air quality data, helping me avoid commuting through highly polluted areas. While these settings aren't essential, they make life more comfortable. It's recommended for beginners to read the manual or online tutorials to unlock more fun features.
