GAC GS3 Emzoom R-Style DCT

- By IÑIGO S. ROCES

Pre-tuned from the showroom

For many young car enthusiast buyers, the choice for a new cars typically around a few revolves storied Japanese brands. This is because these long-time models have built up a following over the years and boast of a selection of parts and accessories for every conceivable corner of the vehicle.

These usual choices can get tiring after a while. Thankfully, those looking for something different might just find something in the GAC GS3 Emzoom R-Style.

'Something different' is possibly the biggest understatement for this car as it dares to distance itself from every style, performance, and tech cliché its competitors have tried.

The GAC is uniquely different thanks to its extremely angular styling. Sharp character lines are all over car, be it on the façade, profile, pillars, or rear.

Its headlights feature triangular LED daytime running lamps. Its bold grille looks like something out of a stealth fighter. Orange highlights beautifully accent the grille, wheels, front splitter, and rear diffuser. It rides on 19-inch wheels right out the gate, shod on Michelin Pilot Sport tires exclusively for this variant.
