GGM Starts Pilot Production of Casper Electric Vehicle
Gwangju Global Motors has entered trial production ahead of mass production of electric vehicles.
Gwangju Global Motors announced on the 5th that it has started trial production to prepare for mass production of the Casper electric vehicle in July.
Trial production is a process of manufacturing vehicles identical to those for actual sale and thoroughly inspecting all performance and quality aspects.
The biggest feature of the Casper electric vehicle is that its overall length is 25 cm longer than the existing Casper.
This is to accommodate a large-capacity battery, and the driving range on a single battery charge is expected to reach up to 350 km.
This is analyzed to be one of the greatest competitive advantages of the Casper electric vehicle.
In preparation for exports to 54 countries including Europe and Japan, right-hand drive vehicles will also be produced, and the design will feature a ‘high-tech’ exterior to enhance satisfaction among overseas customers.
Gwangju Global Motors plans to produce 48,500 units this year, with 24,000 units in the first half and 24,500 units in the second half.
