GAC Philippines Brings Back Emkoo Hybrid With More Affordable Price Tag


After disappearing from its official line-up for a couple of months, GAC Philippines is bringing back the GAC Emkoo Hybrid with a revised price tag.

Just in time for a public appearance at the Auto Focus Summer Test Drive Festival, where it’ll be available for test drives alongside the Aion V, Hyptec HT, and GS8 HEV, the Emkoo Hybrid now has a suggested retail price of P 1,480,000. For those keeping score, this is P 218,000 lower than before.

Its newer, more affordable price tag aside, the Emkoo Hybrid rerains unchanged. It features a 2.0-liter Atkinson (ATK) cycle engine making 140 horsepower and 180 Nm of torque. With help from a 182 horsepower (134 kW) electric motor, outputs rise to a combined 238 horsepower and 300 Nm of torque. Power is then sent to a two-speed dedicated hybrid transmission (DHT) powering the front wheels.

Features include 19-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights with automatic high beams, a multi-function touchscreen with Apple CarPlay, a 360-degree camera, and a full suite of ADAS.

To sweeten the deal even more, the Emkoo Hybrid comes with a special introductory price under GAC International Philippines’ watch. For a limited period, it’s priced at just P 1,380,000 making it cheaper than its direct rival, the MG HS Hybrid+ and even the likes of the Geely EX5 EM-i and BYD Sealion 6 DM-i.

Plus, exclusively at the Auto Focus Summer Test Drive Festival, an additional cash discount of P 20,000 is on offer through an exclusive event partnership with BPI.

GAC Philippines delivers a “zero-anxiety” ownership experience. Managed directly by GAC headquarters, the brand ensures seamless service through an expanding network of 30 dealerships nationwide and a dedicated Manila warehouse for rapid parts fulfillment. This commitment to reliability is backed by GAC Global Sales & Service Way (GSSW) standards, offering comprehensive warranties of up to five years for internal combustion vehicles and eight years for EVs, alongside two years of free roadside assistance for all new owners.

“This 2026, we are thrilled to provide another hands-on experience for Filipinos to enjoy the new energy lineup of GAC,” remarked Steven Wang, Senior Vice President of GAC International. “We invite everyone to experience the cutting-edge difference firsthand, embodying our commitment to electrified performance and sustainable luxury.”

The Auto Focus Summer Test Drive Festival is an annual event organized by Sunshine Television (STV), featuring multiple cars for test drives and retail. Admission is free and open to the public.
