History

On 31 August 2012, NEVS acquired the main assets of the Saab Automobile bankruptcy estates.[3]

In December 2015 the company signed a strategic collaboration agreement with the Chinese company Panda New Energy, an energy vehicle leasing company that focuses on limiting emissions. According to the agreement, NEVS will provide Panda with 150,000 9-3 sedan electric vehicles until the end of 2020.[4]

NEVS signed a battery contract with Contemporary Amperex Technology in 2017.[5]

In 2017, DiDi announced to place a SEK 4 billion order.[6] However, the agreement was collapsed.[7]

In early 2019, NEVS acquired a 20% stake in Koenigsegg for €150 million. Koenigsegg has since then bought the stake back from NEVS[8]

Owners and management

Chinese real estate conglomerate Evergrande Group, via its listed subsidiary: Evergrande Health Industry Group (Evergrande Health; SEHK:708), acquired 51% of the shares in NEVS in January 2019.[9]

In July 2020, Evergrande Health announced plans to privatizate NEVS by acquiring all the shares of NEVS.[10] The company also announced a rebranding to China Evergrande New Energy Vehicle Group.

In 2021, it was reported that Evergrande was deep in debt[11] and so was trying to sell NEVS to various Chinese investment firms, such as the Xiaomi Consortium.[12][13] If all of Evergrande's automobile division is sold to a new owner, it is likely that sister brand Hengchi[14] will be the marque that will survive, as NEVS has struggled to put their version of the Saab 9-3 into production at their Tianjin plant.

Products

NEVS currently only sells vehicles in China.
