Volkswagen has launched a new electric car brand for China called SOL with the reveal of its first model, the E20X.
On show in Beijing, the SUV is the first car to come from a new brand that has been born out of VW’s Chinese venture, Jianghuai Volkswagen automotive.
The E20X is due on sale in China later this year. It is built on the same underpinnings as JAC’s iEV7S SUV (an all-electric model it already offered in China) but features clear VW Group styling influences, particularly from Seat models.
Features carried across from the iEV7S include smart charging, self-parking technology and a 360-degree parking camera.
