The AION RT's front face features polygonal headlights, with the texture beneath the high-beam integrated headlights forming an "eyelash" effect, while the daytime running lights resemble "lying silkworms," presenting an overall sharp and spirited eye effect. The front face adopts a closed grille design, paired with black air intakes on both sides, creating a strong sporty atmosphere.
The AION RT's side profile design is unique, affectionately nicknamed "Big Eye Little Panamera" by young users. This nickname stems from its elegant charm that coincides with the Porsche Panamera when viewed from a 45-degree angle. The body lines are smooth and full of tension, especially the signature "dragon head swallowtail" character line that extends from the front fender all the way to the rear. The roofline, that 3.48-meter-long Y0 line, is undoubtedly the highlight of the side design. The designer cleverly employed a "gentle first, steep later" design philosophy, allowing this line to elegantly sweep across the roof without any inflection points, ensuring rear passengers enjoy ample headroom while quietly descending after the C-pillar, adding a sense of dynamic readiness to the vehicle. This design not only achieves an ultra-low drag coefficient of 0.208Cd, demonstrating the AION RT's outstanding achievements in aerodynamics, but also ensures the largest rear space in its class, successfully breaking the "impossible triangle" of traditional sedan design where "styling, drag coefficient, and space" are difficult to achieve simultaneously.
