Review by topic

Safety and driver assistance

4 airbags
  • The CVT maintains smooth highway cruising at 80-100 kph, and standard cruise control on both GL and GE variants reduces fatigue on long TPLEX and SCTEX drives.
  • Standard cruise control on both variants and a stylish, modern design make it an attractive option for budget-conscious Filipino drivers who still want expressway capability.

Gearbox

CVT
  • The GAC GS3 Emzoom price Philippines starts at just ₱898,000 for the GL CVT and ₱1,098,000 for the GE CVT, making it one of the most affordable turbocharged compact SUVs in the Philippine market.

Fuel economy

16 km/L
  • On expressways like NLEX, SLEX, and Skyway, the GS3 Emzoom delivers confident performance at approximately 14-16 km/L highway fuel efficiency.

Space and practicality

370 L cargo
  • The 370-liter trunk is adequate for road trips but smaller than class leaders.
  • While GAC is still building brand awareness in the Philippines with only 10 dealers, the GS3 Emzoom represents exceptional performance-per-peso value with its powerful turbo engine, spacious cabin, and 370-liter trunk for weekend road trips.

Comfort and refinement

  • The cabin is well-designed with a modern dashboard layout, though NVH insulation falls noticeably short of Japanese competitors, wind and road noise become pronounced above 100 kph.

Engine and performance

171 hp
  • The GAC GS3 Emzoom surprises on Philippine expressways with its segment-leading 270 Nm of turbo torque available from just 1,700 rpm.
  • Overtaking on NLEX and SLEX is genuinely confident, the engine pulls strongly from 60-120 kph without the hesitation common in naturally aspirated competitors at this price point.

What works

  • 171 hp and 270 Nm turbo, the best performance-per-peso in the SUV segment
  • Standard cruise control on both GL and GE variants for expressway comfort
  • Modern stylish exterior design that stands out from conventional SUV shapes
  • 1.5L turbo delivers confident overtaking ability on NLEX and SLEX
  • 180mm ground clearance handles Philippine speed bumps and toll plaza transitions

What to weigh

  • Only 4 airbags, below the 6-airbag standard of most competitors
  • Only 10 GAC dealers in the Philippines, very limited service accessibility
  • NVH insulation trails Japanese competitors noticeably above 100 kph on expressways
  • GAC brand resale value in the Philippines is essentially unknown long-term
  • 370-liter trunk is smaller than class leaders like the Tiggo 7 Pro at 475L
