SsangYong Motor to sell Cevo-C SE via its dealers

Cevo Mobility's Cevo-C SE micro electric vehicle [CEVO MOBILITY]

Cevo Mobility, a Korean company making micro electric vehicles (EVs), joined forces with SsangYong Motor, to utilize SsangYong’s dealer network.

Under the partnership, customers can purchase a Cevo Mobility’s two-seater micro EV Cevo-C SE model at 10 SsangYong dealers from July. Depending on the market response, the number of shared dealers may be expanded later, the two companies said.

Cevo Mobility currently has four showrooms.

The company expects the partnership to boost visibility of its EV models, while SsangYong Motor expects its dealer employees to accumulate experience in selling EVs.

SsangYong Motor doesn’t have an EV model yet and expects to introduce its first-ever EV, with E100 as its working name, this year.

The Cevo-C SE is able to drive 75.4 kilometers per charge and has a maximum speed of 80 kilometers per hour.
