GAC Group (officially Guangzhou Automobile Group Co Ltd) (Chinese: 广州汽车集团股份有限公司), (SEHK: 2238, SSE: 601238) is a Chinese automobile maker and a subsidiary of Guangzhou Automobile Industry Group, a holding company.
GAC is currently known for its Honda-branded auto producing joint venture with this Japanese automaker.
Declining to produce any commercial offerings, the 728,000 passenger cars it manufactured in 2012 placed GAC as the sixth largest Chinese automaker that year. The number of cars counted as passenger vehicles conflates consumer offerings and light commercial trucks and vans although GAC may not currently produce any of the latter.

Famous quotes containing the words automobile and/or group:
“Let a man find himself, in distinction from others, on top of two wheels with a chain—at least in a poor country like Russia—and his vanity begins to swell out like his tyres. In America it takes an automobile to produce this effect.”
—Leon Trotsky (1879–1940)
“Now, honestly: if a large group of ... demonstrators blocked the entrances to St. Patrick’s Cathedral every Sunday for years, making it impossible for worshipers to get inside the church without someone escorting them through screaming crowds, wouldn’t some judge rule that those protesters could keep protesting, but behind police lines and out of the doorways?”
—Anna Quindlen (b. 1953)
