Avatr Technology, China’s latest electric vehicle manufacturer has also been revealed. Making this new automaker special is the fact that it marks Huawei’s move into the automotive space.
A joint venture formed the Avatr brand between Changan Automobiles, Nio New Energy Automotive Technology and CATL lithium-ion batteries provider. It is basically the rebranded Changan Nio New Energy Automotive Technology which was originally a joint venture between Changan Automobiles, Nio and CATL. Changan, however, increased its share in the joint venture from 45 percent to 95.8 percent earlier this year and was able to assume control. Huawei’s technologies will be used in the vehicles launched through the Avatr brand.
