Huawei is on track to reach record monthly deliveries of between 16,000 and 18,000 Aito-branded electric vehicles with manufacturing partner Seres this month, with that number expected to surpass 23,000 in December and further increase to over 30,000 in January, Richard Yu, chief executive of Huawei’s consumer business group and head of its automotive business unit, told a press conference in Shanghai on Tuesday. Yu added that Huawei is anticipating a potential collaboration with FAW Group, meaning Volkswagen and Toyota’s manufacturing partner could be the latest member of the technology giant’s expanding car alliance. Yu also announced that Huawei’s first model co-developed with Chery,  the Luxeed S7, will be priced from RMB 249,800 ($34,921), cheaper than the pre-sale starting price of RMB 258,000 revealed earlier this month. The new battery electric sedan is being positioned to compete against Tesla’s Model S and Porsche’s Taycan 4S and will incorporate Huawei’s all-round vehicle technologies, including its partially autonomous driving software, proprietary operating system for infotainment, and Tuling, a high-tech chassis with adaptive air suspension and torque vectoring to provide enhanced handling and comfort.
