The Hyptec HL, initially known by its codename AH8, was first announced in July 2021 as a model jointly-developed between GAC and Huawei. Huawei eventually backed out of the project,[1] and the vehicle will continue to be produced by GAC Aion and sold under the newly-created Hyptec marque. The Hyptec HL was revealed at Auto Guangzhou in November 2024, alongside the Aion UT subcompact hatchback.[2] Pre-sales of the HL began in March 2025, with deliveries of the EV version beginning in April.[3] Deliveries of the EREV version are expected to start in August 2025.[4]

The interior is upholstered in Nappa leather, and all four doors have a power closing function.[3]
