For the new car brands OMODA, JAECOO and EXLANTiX, parent company Chery Automobile has unveiled the new NEV (New Electric Vehicle) high-performance platform E0X, which aims to set new standards in the five dimensions of “Space”, “Intelligent Cabin”, “Intelligent Driving”, “Energy Consumption” and “Safety”. The “E” in E0X stands for “Electric” and represents Chery’s commitment to expand in the new energy sector and its determination to continuously develop and innovate. The “0” stands for a new technological beginning, the start of a journey in the high-end NEV sector with the aim of developing sustainable and green solutions. The “X” symbolizes the infinite expansion possibilities of the platform, which covers the A to C segment of SD/SUV/MPV models with five-, six- and seven-seater variants. Based on the E0X platform, 24 PHEV and 15 high-end battery electric vehicle (BEV) models are to be created over the next two years.
