Their first product, NEVS 9-3 EV, will be available for Chinese consumers this year. Except for their factory in Trollhättan, Sweden, NEVS have built a new car manufacturing plant in Tianjin, China and started to build another one in Shanghai, China.
NEVS will begin producing their first 9-3 electric vehicle, with the aim of having cars and mobility services built in and around them available to Chinese consumers this year. Hundreds of NEVS current staff have been working at Saab Automobile for many years. Together they will do their best to carry their Swedish roots and the Saab heritage with them into the future. Presale has started in China!
Cześć
We should call this National Vehicle of China! (Not of Sweden). Of course I respect their co-working, but this company has lost the real SAAB soul :(.All sold to Chinese, from tiny mechanism to the engine! Very sad! Same goes to Volvo, after Ford sold them to again Chinese Company Geely, they also lost all what they had(include the Soul and Heritage) ! stop that silly action and return 100% of control and manufacturing of the Swedish Car Industry!
