Summary
GAC’s rapidly increasing EV production is impressive, but a lack of disclosure, commitments and actions to build a clean and responsible supply chain leave it near the bottom of the Leaderboard. GAC has made some progress on batteries by bringing a new LFP battery to the market, reducing reliance on energy intensive minerals, and has disclosed some minimal actions on due diligence of suppliers for the first time. However, this has not been matched by other actions to eliminate fossil fuels, environmental harms and human rights abuses from its supply chain.
Key Findings
- Is one of the leaders on the EV transition, with BEVs now accounting for 60% of its total sales.
- Has a 2050 net zero target covering the supply chain, but no interim target, and has disclosed extremely little information on the supply chain actions it is taking to achieve this target.
- Has brought to market new nickel- and cobalt-free LFP batteries.
- Now provides limited evidence that suppliers are audited for social risks, but provides little detail on the content and coverage of these assessments, and scores 0% on almost all other indicators related to supply chain due diligence.
