LEVC starts production of the van L380

Following the introduction of the state-of-the-art EV platform – Space Oriented Architecture (SOA), developed in collaboration with the Geely Holding Group – the L380 is the first model to be based on it. The platform will expand LEVC's vehicle range and offer new products that enable advancements in range, efficiency, safety, charging time, durability, and connectivity.

On Thursday, January 25th, the first L380 prototype vehicle rolled off the assembly line in Yiwu, China, where LEVC China's production activities will be based following a significant investment. The plant has been revamped and will incorporate an agile and intelligent production approach. The expansion of the Chinese production site is a crucial part of LEVC's transition to a global e-mobility brand.

Launch in China – LEVC aims to introduce vans in the UK and Europe by 2026

Following the production start this week, the L380 will initially be launched in China, with the MPV expected to debut in the UK within the next two years. The new L380 takes the company into entirely new markets. Incidentally, the electric van is named after the large Airbus double-decker. It is intended to set a benchmark for interior flexibility with multiple seating configurations in three-, six-, or eight-seater layouts. Alex Nan, CEO of LEVC, commented:

“Today marks another memorable occasion for LEVC, as the next step in the company's globalization strategy, accelerating our transition from producing the world's most advanced and iconic taxi to becoming a leading e-mobility technology company.”
