The GAC Aion V Premium is the latest mid-size electric SUV to enter the market. The Chinese brand is going head-to-head with the likes of the Geely EX5 and BYD Atto 3 with this small SUV.

Priced from $42,590 (plus on-road costs) the Aion V Premium comes well-equipped for the money with LED headlights and tail-lights, 19-inch alloy wheels, a panoramic sunroof, heated and ventilated front seats, dual-zone climate control and a nine-speaker stereo. Although it does get synthetic leather seats in a nod to its lower price.

There is a lengthy list of driver assistance features, including adaptive cruise control, autonomous emergency braking, forward collision warning, traffic sign recognition, emergency lane keeping assist, rear cross-traffic alert and door opening warning.

It's powered by a 150kW/210Nm electric motor, which drives the front wheels, and a 75.2kWh lithium-phosphate battery, which provides a claimed range of 510km.

Steve has been obsessed with all things automotive for as long as he can remember. Literally, his earliest memory is of a car. Having amassed an enviable Hot Wheels and Matchbox collection as a kid he moved into the world of real cars with an Alfa Romeo Alfasud. Despite that questionable history he carved a successful career for himself, firstly covering motorsport for Auto Action magazine before eventually moving into the automotive publishing world with CarsGuide in 2008. Since then he's worked for every major outlet, having work published in The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age, Drive.com.au, Street Machine, V8X and F1 Racing. These days he still loves cars as much as he did as a kid and has an Alfa Romeo Alfasud in the garage (but not the same one as before... that's a long story).
