On December 15, Li Yinan, founder of Xiaoniu Electric, announced the official release of the new energy vehicle brand, named "NIUTRON" in English and "Self-Traveling Home" Chinese. The first model, the Ziyoujia NV, will also be available in the first half of 2022 and will be available for delivery in September of the same year. Positioning medium and large high-end SUVs, there will be pure electric and extended range electric two power forms, both soaring, but also playing ideal.
The new energy vehicle "self-traveling" brand is another venture of Li Yinan, which is also one of the two new forces in the new energy vehicle market this year, and the other is Xiaomi Lei Jun.
Headquartered in Beijing, the brand has a R&D center in Shanghai and an R&D and intelligent manufacturing base in Changzhou, with an annual production capacity of 180,000 vehicles. At present, the core R & D team of Youjia Automobile has a scale of 1,000 people, and the talents are from mainstream first-line automobile manufacturers at home and abroad who have worked for more than 10 years, which shows that the brand's research and development strength is indeed very deep.
The first new car since the tour home NV has completed three rounds of engineering tests, the official said that its test mileage has exceeded one million kilometers, and completed the first round of winter and summer experiments, is currently in full swing for the second round of winter testing. At the same time, the car will be produced in small batches in March 2022 and officially delivered to the first users in September of the same year.
Youjia Auto also has a self-developed Gemini twin platform, which supports two different technical routes of pure electric BEV and range extender hybrid EREV, and will build a number of models based on this platform and two different technical routes in the future. The first model, the Tourer NV, will also have two different power forms.
Conclusion: With the successful experience of Maverick electric vehicles, I believe that Li Yinan and those think tanks from the automotive industry must have something to do in the new energy vehicle market. Next year's new energy vehicle market can be described as a good drama, and the competition will be upgraded again.
