GAC Group’s new energy vehicle brand, Evergrande Auto, released six new vehicles at noon today, including sedans, SUVs, and MPVs covering A-D segments.
All six new vehicles are pure electric products and are still in the conceptual stage.
The current information on the Evergrande 1 to 6 models is as follows:
- Evergrande 1 is a D-class luxury sedan with a wheelbase of 3150 mm
- Evergrande 2 is a sporty B-class sedan
- Evergrande 3 is a luxury C-class SUV
- Evergrande 4 is a luxury 7-seater MPV
- Evergrande 5 is an A-class SUV
- Evergrande 6 is an A-class coupe SUV
Key information such as range and power of each model was not revealed at the press conference.
In addition to the new vehicles, Evergrande also unveiled the Evergrande logo for the first time today.
As a real estate giant, Evergrande Group’s capital advantage cannot be underestimated. After several years of various operations, the industry has taken shape after Evergrande announced its car-making plan.
According to Evergrande’s previous plan, it will build a high-standard self-built vehicle factory according to the German Industry 4.0 standard, which is expected to start production at the end of this year, with a first phase capacity of 200,000 units.
In terms of batteries, Evergrande acquired CENAT New Energy and plans to build multiple 30 GWh super factories in the next 10 years.
In terms of drive, e-traction and UK Protean provided technical support for wheel hub motors.
In March of this year, Evergrande and Swedish supercar maker Koenigsegg jointly unveiled the hybrid supercar Gemera at the Geneva Auto Show.
Today’s press conference, with the simultaneous release of six new vehicles, is certainly an impressive move. In the face of the continuous doubts from the outside, will this change people’s perception of Evergrande’s car-making plans?
