Neta, a brand owned by Chinese electric vehicle (EV) company Hozon Auto, has started construction of its first overseas factory in Thailand, having brought its vehicles to the Southeast Asian country last year.
Neta laid the groundbreaking for its plant in Bangkok, Thailand, on March 10, which will be its main manufacturing base for right-hand drive EVs for export to ASEAN, the company said today.
The plant is Neta's first overseas factory and the first in Thailand for a new Chinese carmaker.
When completed, the plant will have a capacity of 20,000 units per year and is expected to be operational by the end of January 2024, Neta said.
Neta has signed a cooperation agreement with Thailand's BGAC to jointly build the EV assembly site.
Neta plans to expand its overseas business to more regions including the Middle East and the European Union, making it a brand recognized and trusted by consumers around the world, said Zhang Yong, the company's co-founder and CEO, at a groundbreaking ceremony.
Neta is currently targeting mainly the budget EV market, with the Neta V and Neta U priced at around RMB 100,000 ($14,380) to RMB 150,000 in China.
On July 31, 2022, Neta officially launched its flagship sedan Neta S, targeting the RMB 200,000 to 300,000 market.
On August 24, 2022, Neta announced the launch of the right-hand drive version of the Neta V EV at a launch event in Thailand, as its first model to be offered there.
Neta said at the time that it already had 25 authorized dealers in Thailand, covering major Thai cities including Bangkok and those from surrounding provinces.
Neta delivered 10,073 units in February, up 41.53 percent from 7,117 units a year earlier and 67.44 percent from 6,016 units in January, according to figures the company announced on March 1.
On February 28, Neta announced that close to 100 units of the Neta U and Neta V were shipped to Jordan, the company's first exports to the Middle Eastern market.

Shenlan, Changan Automobile's new energy vehicle (NEV) brand, is offering consumers tens of thousands of yuan in incentives to purchase vehicles as the auto price war in China continues.
Shenlan, based in the southwestern Chinese city of Chongqing, announced today that it is offering discounts of up to 42,000 yuan ($6,030) on vehicle purchases.
The offer includes an RMB 22,000 cash subsidy and up to RMB 20,000 in option benefits.
The subsidy is valid from March 10 to March 31 and is limited to 10,000 units.
Shenlan, Changan's NEV brand announced in 2022, officially launched the Shenlan SL03 electric sedan on July 25, another strong competitor to the Model 3.
Unlike the Tesla Model 3, the Shenlan SL03 is available in three powertrain variants -- an all-electric version, an extended-range version and a version with a hydrogen fuel cell.
The Shenlan SL03 BEV currently has a starting price of RMB 189,900, lower than the Model 3's starting price of RMB 229,900 in China, and the SL03 EREV starts at RMB 171,900.
Shenlan began deliveries of the SL03 at the end of August 2022 and has delivered a total of 37,328 units as of the end of February this year, including 4,103 units last month.
On March 5, Shenlan officially unveiled its second model, the Shenlan S7, a model similar to the Tesla Model Y crossover, in Shanghai.
In addition to the Shenlan brand, Changan is offering car purchase incentives for its other sub-brands.
Changan announced yesterday that for consumers who buy any of its passenger cars and get a delivery this month, they will receive a coupon for thousands of yuan.
