Zotye, a vehicle manufacturing enterprise and Ctrip, a leading Chinese provider of travel services hold a ceremony for their strategic partnership on October 30 at the Zhejiang-based automaker’s Jinhua facility. The two companies will join hands to build new mobility service unit based on their platforms, vehicle products and self-operated service network.
It is said that Zoyte auto will supply 4,000 T600 and T700 models first for the mobility platform. Under the partnership, the two sides aim to establish a rent service network mainly covering transport hubs and scenic spots in the first, second and third tier cities. Another service network to be built will focus on road trips, business and commuting travel. Premier vehicle service network is included as well, covering airport shuttling and ride-hailing services.
Ctrip will take advantage of its mobility service data network on the foundation of the mobile Internet, IoV (Internet of Vehicle), blockchain, artificial intelligence (AI), cloud computing and other crucial technologies to provide convenient services for consumers. The other party is expected to build customized models dependent on different scenarios with its strong research and development ability. It will also avail itself of its own production and quality expertise in products like large-sized SUV and MPV. It is making efforts to fulfill the promise of “manufacturing good vehicles people can afford”.
To meet the new mobility demands of consumers born in1980’s and 1990’s, the two parties will strive to deploy 100,000 units in over 260 cities in five years.
