On January 18th, BYD expanded its market footprint in Southeast Asia by launching three EV models in Indonesia: the Dolphin, Seal, and ATTO 3 (Yuan Plus). This move signifies a further step in BYD’s global expansion strategy.
In a significant development, Airlangga Hartarto, Indonesia’s Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs, announced at the launch event that BYD plans to invest $1.3 billion in building an automotive factory in Indonesia. This factory is expected to have an annual production capacity of 150,000 units. This investment marks BYD’s fifth overseas EV factory, following their establishments in Thailand, Uzbekistan, Brazil, and Hungary.
Eagle Zhao, President of BYD Indonesia, stated that the company plans to commence construction of these facilities later this year. BYD aims to establish up to 50 sales outlets across Indonesia by the end of 2024.
The Yuan Plus, one of the models introduced, is BYD’s first electric SUV built on the e-platform 3.0. It features a low drag coefficient of 0.29 and can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 7.3 seconds. Under the WLTP standard, its maximum range reaches up to 420 km.
Indonesia has been actively trying to attract EV manufacturers with various incentive measures. The country’s Minister of Industry indicated that the government is considering eliminating import tariffs and value-added tax for businesses investing in local EV factories. “We are optimistic that, if implemented, this will stimulate investment and increase the demand for electric vehicles,” he stated.
Earlier comments from Indonesian officials
Last year, Indonesia’s Minister for Maritime Affairs and Natural Resources mentioned that the government was formulating incentive measures for domestic EV manufacturers, hoping to attract major companies like BYD and Tesla.As early as July 2023, Indonesia’s Investment Minister, Bahlil Lahadalia, announced that EV manufacturers, including BYD, Wuling Motors, and others, would establish factories in Indonesia. He also revealed that the government contemplated additional tax incentives to attract EV manufacturers.
“Thank God, we have decided to accelerate the investment in electric vehicles. The situation now is that Hyundai, which is already operational, will be joined by BYD, Wuling, and several other automakers in Indonesia,” Bahlil said.
To encourage this investment, the government is preparing a series of comprehensive measures from a regulatory and incentivization perspective, including tax reductions.
Bahlil mentioned that earlier discussions focused on how to compete with other countries, such as Thailand and Malaysia. “If we do not discuss this immediately, we will surely fall behind our neighbors,” he added.
Regarding incentives for purchasing EVs, Bahlil stated that the government would streamline some procedures to make it easier for people to acquire electric vehicles.

BMW is scheduled to release its latest 5 Series/i5 models in China on January 25th, introducing notable enhancements in design, technology, and performance. The upcoming launch will encompass ten models, with six dedicated to the extended wheelbase 5 Series and four to the i5, aiming to cater to the diverse preferences of Chinese consumers. This new model will also be released in the US and European markets early this year.
The 5 Series for the Chinese market is assembled domestically by the joint venture between BMW and Brilliance. This JV was founded in 2003 and started to assemble 3 Series and 5 Series. The BMW-Brilliance cooperation owns two plants in China with a planned production capacity of up to 650,000 units. BMW-Brilliance currently assembles nine models: 3 Series, i3, 5 Series, i5, iX1, X1, iX3, X3, and X5L.

The design of the new BMW 5 Series showcases a dynamic aesthetic characterized by a kidney grille and “angel eyes” headlights with boomerang-shaped daytime running lights. Real-world images of the long-wheelbase version reveal its elongated profile, featuring classic kinks and chrome embellishments, along with a glowing ‘5’ badge.
In contrast, the rear design adopts a minimalist approach, incorporating horizontal lines in the taillights for a delicate visual effect. Silver accents in the rear bumper contribute to the overall sporty look. The dimensions of the new model measure 5175mm in length, 1900mm in width, and 1520mm in height, with a wheelbase of 3105mm.
Interior
The design follows the latest family-style approach, with a center console housing a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and a 14.9-inch central display. The flat-bottomed steering wheel offers a comfortable grip, while crystal-like interior components add a touch of sophistication. The long-wheelbase variant of the 5 Series extends the luxurious theme to the rear, featuring a 32:9 BMW floating screen with real-time connectivity, integration with platforms like iQiyi (entertainment), and access to the Huawei AppGallery.
For the domestically-produced long-wheelbase 5 Series petrol models, consumers can choose from six variants:
- 525Li Luxury Package

Zeekr’s second MPV, codenamed CM2E, was spotted in the garage wearing a heavy camo. The all-electric minivan is developed with Waymo, a US-based self-driving project from Google.
Zeekr CM2E is based on Zeekr’s M-Vision concept, which was introduced in 2022 at the Guangzhou Auto Show. It was designed in Sweden and is dedicated to ride-hailing, featuring L4 autonomous driving, Zeekr announced then.
However, one little detail from the spy shot suggests Zeekr might change its mind. Unlike the M-Vision concept, the camouflaged EV has no lidar on the front windshield and is missing some cameras and sensors, pointing out that Zeekr might also be developing a cheaper version with fewer self-driving capabilities for private buyers.
The M-Vision concept was supposed to have rear and front electric sliding doors, and previous spy shots confirmed it. However, the model now has only a sliding rear door and a traditional front door, showing Zeekr is most likely experimenting with different setups for various markets and uses.
Zeekr CM2E is a small MPV that sits on Geely’s SEA-M platform, having a length of about 4.6 meters and five seats in a 2+3 layout. It might not seem like a long minivan, but don’t forget you don’t need a space for a driver in Waymo’s version as it is all dedicated to passenger space.
Based on spy shots of the pre-production version, Chinese fans from SugarDesign created renders of the production version Zeekr CM2E. Credit: SugarDesingZeekr hasn’t revealed specifications yet, but CarNewsChina expects it will feature 800V architecture like Zeekr’s latest model, the 007 sedan. The 007 powertrain options comprise a single motor version with 310 kW and an AWD version with 475 kW.
Zeekr M-Vision concept interior. Credit: Geely.As confirmed by previous spy shots, the new EV will feature Zeekr’s Stargate light band, first adopted by Zeekr 007. It is a 90-inch element consisting of 1,711 lamps. It supports personal projections. According to Zeekr CEO An Conghui, they’ve spent over 1 billion yuan (USD 140 million) to develop this element.
Zeekr is a BEV brand founded three years ago under Geely. It sells four models: the Zeekr 009 MPV, the Zeekr 001 sedan, the Zeekr X compact SUV, and the Zeekr 007 sedan. It also produces a performance version of 001 called 001 FR. In 2023, Zeekr sold 118,685 cars, up 65% from 2022 but missing its target to double sales to 140,000 units. For 2024, Zeekr aims to deliver 230,000 vehicles.

Zeekr 001 FR entered Chinese market with 1,247 hp. Priced at 105,100 USD
The production version of CM2E will hit the market later in 2024 and join Waymo’s fleet in the US. Zeek didn’t confirm if their second MPV will be available in other markets for private buyers, but based on recent lidar-less spy shots, we expect it will be available in China and possibly in Europe. We will keep an eye on it.

On January 17th, Zhao Aimin, Deputy General Manager of SAIC International, announced that SAIC Group has set its overseas sales target 2024 at 1.35 million units, with a further goal of 1.5 million units in 2025. Zhao emphasized the group’s capacity to aim for higher targets but stressed the importance of steady progress.
SAIC plans to leverage the centenary of its MG brand to promote its global presence, focusing on sales-driven brand publicity. SAIC’s new energy vehicle (NEV) products are currently marketed as “global cars.” Over the next two years, SAIC is set to launch 14 new NEV models worldwide.
SAIC’s high-end brands, including IM and Feifan, are also poised for global expansion. These brands may adopt different presentation strategies in international markets.
Interior of IM LS7
Interior of IM LS7In 2023, SAIC Group sold 5.02 million vehicles, maintaining its position as China’s top automaker for the eighteenth consecutive year. Its overseas sales reached 1.208 million units, marking a record 18.8% year-on-year increase and leading the domestic industry for the eighth year.
IM LS7 chassisThis achievement sets the stage for an 11.75% increase in overseas sales for SAIC Group in 2024, building on its consecutive eight-year lead in domestic sales.
Regarding sales structure, in 2023, SAIC Group’s independent brand sales totaled 2.775 million units, accounting for over 55% of the total sales volume. This figure represents a 2.5% increase from 2022. The group also reported a 4.6% year-on-year growth in NEV sales, totaling 1.123 million units and ranking second among domestic automakers.
SAIC’s current overseas sales strategy mainly uses the acquired MG brand to expand overseas sales. It will use its joint venture with GM, SAIC-GM-Wuling, to develop emerging markets such as Southeast Asia. Later, independent brands such as Zhiji and Feifan will be promoted overseas.
At present, SAIC is still China’s largest automobile group, but nearly half of its sales come from joint venture brands. Its own brand sales are still less than BYD.

On January 17, Nio announced updates to their existing vehicle lineup. The 2024 model versions are set to commence deliveries in early March, with short-term purchase incentives offered for the 2023 models.
According to official sources, all Nio models are equipped with four Orin chips, boasting a computing power of 1016Tops. This comprehensive and advanced deployment of intelligent hardware ensures a continuous improvement in user experience.
Moreover, towards the end of January, the Nio Banyan system will receive an update encompassing more than 40 feature enhancements. This upgrade will enhance the performance and experience of intelligent chassis, cockpit, active safety, and full-domain assisted driving. For context, in 2023, Nio’s complete lineup of eight models achieved a sales volume of 160,000 units.
In other news, on the same day, Nio Automotive announced that they would further upgrade the intelligent hardware configuration of their existing models, with the new models scheduled to start delivery in early March 2024.
In 2023, Nio delivered over 160,000 units across its eight models, securing the top spot in the premium pure electric market segment priced above 300,000 yuan (41,800 USD).
Later this month, the new version of the Nio Banyan system is expected to undergo more than 40 functional upgrades, significantly improving the capabilities and user experience of intelligent chassis, cockpit, active safety, and full-domain assisted driving.
In 2024, Nio plans to upgrade the intelligent hardware configurations of its current models further, with the new models set to begin deliveries in early March. In celebration of the upcoming Chinese New Year, Nio offers short-term purchase benefits for the 2023 model range.
According to the first internal letter of 2024 released by Nio’s Chairman and CEO, Li Bin, Nio will focus on three “high-priority items” in 2024: ensuring long-term investment in core critical technologies to maintain the lead in technology and product delivery; enhancing sales and service capabilities to meet intense market competition; and providing the development of 9 core products across three brands progresses on schedule.
Per media reports, Nio currently plans three brands, with the Nio brand having already launched eight products. There are no new products slated for release this year under this brand. The second brand, internally codenamed “Alps,” is expected to introduce its first SUV model in the latter half of the year. The third brand, codenamed “Firefly,” aims to debut a small car akin to the BMW MINI in the European market by 2025.
In December 2023, Nio delivered 18,012 vehicles, a 13.9% increase year-over-year, totaling 160,038 deliveries, a 30.7% increase from the previous year. As of December 31, 2023, Nio has delivered 449,594 new cars.
By comparison, Li Auto delivered 50,353 new vehicles in December, a 137.1% increase year-over-year, and XPeng Motors produced 20,115 new cars, a 78% increase.
During Nio’s media face-to-face event in December 2023, Nio’s president, Qin Lihong, stated that investing in service stations and battery swapping is not a distraction. For Chinese automotive companies to establish premium brands, diverse efforts are necessary, even if it means incurring some learning costs. He reassured that Nio was not squandering investors’ money and was not an inefficient company.

The Lynk & Co 07 EM-P was shown in official spy shots. This sedan undergoes winter tests in Northern China. It follows the brand’s latest design language and offers a PHEV powertrain with over 400 kW. The Lynk & Co 07 EM-P will be officially presented in Q1 this year.
Lynk & Co has shared some official photos of the 07 EM-P sedan. It undergoes cold-weather tests in unknown locations. We may assume it is Inner Mongolia, the coldest Chinese region. In winter, temperatures here can drop below minus 40 degrees Celsius. The vast majority of Chinese car makers prefer to test their products here.
Lynk & Co official images
The Lynk & Co 07 EM-P is covered in camouflage in pictures. However, its overall exterior styling coincides with the earlier spy shots and the teaser image. The 07 EM-P follows the brand’s latest design language introduced by Lynk & Co The Next Day concept car. Its headlights are integrated into the front bumper, while the running lights sit beside the bonnet line.
The front end of the Lynk & Co 07 EM-p doesn’t have a conventional grille. Instead, it offers a large air intake. The new sedan equips sporty five-spoke rims, frameless side-view mirrors, and retractable door handles. From the back, the Lynk & Co 07 EM-P has a continuous taillight strip.
Unnoficial render images of the Lynk & Co 07 EM-PBased on the released images, Chinese designer Sugar Design prepared some unofficial render images of the Lynk & Co 07 EM-P. He imagined this sedan with blackened pillars and a roof.
Additional info on Lynk & Co 07 EM-P
The Lynk & Co 07 EM-P stands on the CMA Evo platform designed especially for plug-in hybrid vehicles. The same architecture underpins the Lynk & Co 08 fastback SUV launched last year. It hints the 07 EM-P can adopt the same powertrain options. In this case, it will be available in three variants:
- 1.5L ICE for 120 kW, e-motor for 160 kW, total power output of 280 kW, 21.2-kWh battery
- 1.5L ICE for 120 kW, e-motor for 160 kW, total power output of 280 kW, 39.8 kWh battery
- 1.5L ICE for 120 kW, two e-motors for 160 kW + 156 kW, total power output of 436 kW, 39.8 kWh battery
