The Hyptec SSR (Chinese: 广汽昊铂SSR; pinyin: Guǎngqì Hàobó SSR) or previously Hyper SSR is an electric sports car produced by Chinese automobile manufacturer GAC Aion and sold under the Hyptec premium EV brand beginning in 2023. The Hyptec SSR will be the first production 2-door supercar by GAC.

In August 2024, GAC Aion announced to rename the Hyper brand's English name to Hyptec.

01Overview

The Hyptec SSR was first previewed by the GAC Enpulse electric roadster concept, revealed at Auto China in Beijing in September 2020.

On September 14, 2022, GAC revealed on Weibo that a new sports car and Aion brand logo would be revealed the following day at an event called GAC Aion Brand Day. On the 15th, the Hyptec SSR was revealed wearing the Aion brand's new logo.

The Hyptec SSR will have starting price of RMB 1.3 million (~US$186,000) while the Hyptec SSR Ultimate model will start at RMB 1.7 million (US$244,000). Production and deliveries of the car began in October 2023. As of March 2023, the production line is started, and some units of Hyptec SSR were made. In December 2023, GAC Aion launched the Hyptec SSR in Thailand as Chinese-built left-hand drive version only. However, the first SSR delivery in Thailand took place on December 9, 2024. It is also the first official SSR delivery outside China.

The Hyptec SSR retains many design cues of the 2020 GAC Enpulse concept car, such as its scissor doors and a similar side profile. However, unlike the Enpulse, the Hyptec SSR does not have a convertible roof.
