Why are used GAC GA4 cars so cheap?
1 Answers
The reasons for the low price are: The biggest weakness of the GAC GA4 lies in its mid-to-low trim models, where the automatic transmission uses the outdated 4AT technology. Only the sub-top and top trim automatic models come with a 6AT, but even the 6AT doesn't perform very well in the GA4. Some owners report noticeable jerking during the initial acceleration phase, and the 1.3T engine paired with the 6AT has relatively high fuel consumption, with urban driving averaging close to 9L/100km—quite high for a 1.3L turbocharged engine. Additionally, the overall noise insulation is not great, and the tire noise is particularly loud. Below is an introduction to the GAC GA4: 1. System Configuration: The GAC GA4 is equipped with the Bosch 9.1 version ESP vehicle electronic stability control system, HHC hill-start assist, EPB electronic parking brake, and Auto Hold automatic parking function, among other intelligent safety driving assistance systems. These features help maintain stable control of the vehicle during driving, significantly reducing the likelihood of wheel slippage on wet roads, providing timely feedback and measures to address road obstacles, and proactively eliminating safety hazards to ensure vehicle safety at all times. The class-exclusive 360° panoramic parking camera provides comprehensive monitoring of driving conditions, displaying a bird's-eye view of the surroundings on the central control screen, solving visibility issues in rainy conditions and ensuring clear vision for safe and worry-free driving. 2. Safety Configuration: The GAC GA4 also boasts comprehensive and robust passive safety features: it adopts the GAC high-strength body design, built to meet C-NCAP 5-star collision standards, with high-strength steel of 600MPa grade and above accounting for 55% of the body, and the passenger compartment strength reaching 1500MPa grade, far surpassing domestic competitors in the same class. It is also equipped with six airbags—rare in its class—paired with front and rear pre-tensioned force-limiting seatbelts, doubling driving safety.
