Huawei Technologies is in talks with state-owned Changan Automobile and other automakers to use their car plants to build EVs, Reuters reported.

More than 60 percent of China’s 14.4 billion residents live in cities. And these days, the country’s sprawling urban areas are becoming more torn between a desire to ease congestion and to promote green vehicles. Shanghai has become the first to craft a solution: Phase out incentives for plug-in hybrids and extended-range EVs, and go all out to popularize EVs. 
 

Geely Automobile Holdings, China’s largest private passenger vehicle maker, is looking to incorporate its electric vehicle businesses into a separate company, company founder Li Shufu said. 

The two automakers have different cultures, Geely CEO Gui Shengyuey said, noting also that the world has changed with the coronavirus pandemic and the relationship between the East and West has been altered, too.
