The carmaker has begun setting up a retail and service network in the country ahead of the 2027 start, according to a company statement Friday. Geely, which owns premium EV brands including Zeekr and Lynk & Co as well as more affordable offerings, didnt specify a start date for sales or which models would be available.
吉利汽车控股有限公司计划于明年在加拿大上市,此举将使其成为首家进入北美市场的中国大众市场电动汽车制造商。
据该公司周五发布的声明,这家汽车制造商已开始在目标国家建立零售和服务网络,为2027年的启动做准备。吉利旗下拥有包括极氪和领克在内的高端电动汽车品牌,以及更经济实惠的车型,但该公司并未明确具体的销售启动日期或将在当地推出的车型。
