Power system industry leading, product volume / weight / cost advantage is outstanding. The company has solutions covering the full system vehicle level and shelf product matrix, at present, hybrid dual motor controller, motor, power assembly, "integrated core" drive six-in-one and other new projects have entered the mass production period, taking the lead in delivering 100kW high-power six-in-one assembly, based on the platform construction of integrated core powertrain, and rapidly upgrading A-level and B-class market share based on the high market share of A00 models.
The production capacity has been increased and the construction project has been carried out steadily. The fixed increase was completed in July 2022, which is mainly used for technical transformation and capacity construction, in which the Zhuhai production base will have an annual production capacity of 300000 sets of drive assembly and 300000 sets of power assembly; Heze North Base will add 800000 sets of power system and power supply capacity.
