Our Story
Our story began in Zhejiang, China in 1986. We soon became the first privately-owned Chinese automaker.
From our very first car off the line, we’ve been upholding three core principles of providing the highest value to the users, delivering high-quality products and experiences, and constant innovation in technology, safety and design, with a mission of making mobility inclusive.
In the years since, we’ve expanded across the globe, and each step in our journey has brought us closer to more inclusive mobility, a high-value ecosystem that enables people to see the world in full.
