- Born-electric SV launches across Europe, the Gulf region, Asia Pacific and South Africa
- Farizon expands into 26 European countries and establishes 60 sales outlets in the region
- Further market launches expected during Q4, including Germany and Switzerland
- Supply agreement with converter expected soon for additional SV derivatives
The all-new born-electric Farizon SV large van continues to launch in new markets as its global rollout progresses at pace.
Last year, Farizon became the first new energy commercial vehicle brand to achieve cumulative sales of 300,000 units, with a core focus being the Chinese domestic market. This year, Farizon started an ambitious export strategy, successfully launching the SV – a new global benchmark for medium-large vans – in export markets, including across Europe, the Gulf region, Asia Pacific and South Africa.
In Europe, Farizon has partnered with distributors in 26 countries, established 60 sales outlets, and built 69 service channels within the region so far. The SV is now available to buy in Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czechia, Greece, Hungary, the Netherlands, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain and the UK, with sales in Denmark beginning during October. Ireland joined the fray just last week, the the SV launched at the Fleet Transport Awards event.
Further European market launches will begin with Poland in October, followed successively by France, Italy, Germany, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland and Turkey.
Farizon’s bespoke and flexible GXA-M platform, which was designed from the outset to offer exceptional cargo carrying abilities, has the potential to support additional SV derivatives, such as all-electric campervans and minibuses. A memorandum of understanding (MoU) for a supply agreement with a vehicle bodybuilder and conversion specialist is expected to be signed shortly, expanding the SV’s capabilities and broadening its appeal to a wider range of customers and supporting further use cases.
Outside Europe, Farizon launched in the Gulf region in the UAE at the end of January, with 10 more markets to be added by the end of the year. In Asia Pacific, the brand has had sales and service partners in Australia since April, and plans for further launches in Indonesia in the next six months. In South Africa, SV and V6E models will be launched successively before the end of 2025.
Cook Xue, CEO of Farizon Auto International Company, said: “As we continue to expand into new global markets, Europe is a particularly important region for us. Every new brand wants to make an impression, and if you want to build a positive reputation, this is the place to be. Our strategy in the region is based on a sustainable business model where we are working with local distributors who know what works best in each market.”
