In addition to offering battery swap-enabled models for the cab market, SAIC Roewe is also considering offering such models for the average consumer, providing a new endorsement for a model strongly advocated by Nio.

TikTok's local competitor Kuaishou announced on March 7 that it has partnered with SAIC-GM-Wuling to sell limited-edition Wuling Hongguang Mini EVs at a discounted price.

That means the model is selling an average of 1,000 units per day, setting a global record for sales of a small new energy vehicle.

The first Supercharger station of Chinese automaker SAIC’s R brand has been put into operation at Shanghai Nanxiang Incity MEGA, offering DC Supercharging up to 120kW as well as AC slow charging.

Chinese auto company SAIC announced on February 22 that it will hold a developer conference in April to invite car users and developers to build a smart car ecosystem on the SOA platform.

SAIC Motor said on February 8 that it became the top seller of new energy vehicles (NEV) in China in January with 58,000 energy vehicles sold in that month, up 446.6 percent year-on-year.

The "R" brand, a high-end electric vehicle marque of SAIC, unveiled its 5G intelligent pure electric SUV MARVEL R on February 7, which is the world's first electric vehicle with 5G connectivity.

Among them, Hongguang Mini EV, the best-selling model, has exceeded 150,000 units in six months after its launch, and won the top spot in China's new energy sales for four consecutive months from September to December 2020.

MARVEL R has the necessary qualifications for commercial use of 5G technology and becomes a real 5G smart car that can be driven on the road.

IM Motors vehicles also support wireless charging, making it the first car brand in the world to have 11kW of wireless charging technology in mass production.
