The LS6 is IM Motors' third model and the least expensive in its lineup, with a LiDAR and Nvidia Orin chip as standard.

SAIC said it is in the process of selecting sites for its European vehicle manufacturing bases. The carmaker currently has four overseas vehicle manufacturing sites, and it sold 733,140 vehicles overseas in the January-August period.

A previous report said that a number of Chinese automakers, including Chery and Nio, were planning to order their own car carriers.

The Baojun Yunduo is the second model launched by the Baojun brand this year and is expected to compete with the BYD Dolphin and Volkswagen's ID.3.

Rising Auto said in March that it has three battery swap stations in Shanghai and has completed the selection of sites for more than 50 battery swap stations in 10 cities.

The MG Mulan is a compact EV launched by the MG brand in September 2022 and a model for the global market.

Wuling is considering offering a range-extender option for the Baojun Yep, which would provide the mini EV with the ability to get an extra 80 kilometers of range by refueling.

The Baojun Yep is available in two versions, with the pricier one equipped with a smart driving system developed by SAIC-GM-Wuling with drone maker DJI.

SAIC is ramping up development work on solid-state battery cells, with its first production model powered by solid-state battery set to roll off the assembly line in 2025, it said.

Wuling said the move is in response to China's call to boost consumption of NEVs in rural areas.
