The company’s latest funding round, на сумму в юанях 3 миллиард ($410 миллион), поднял его постинвестиционную оценку до впечатляющего почти юаня 20 миллиард.

Originally established as Changan Nio through a collaboration between Changan and Nio (Нью-Йоркская фондовая биржа (: НИО) на Июль 10, 2018, Avatr Technology has evolved independently. While Nio’s ownership interest has diminished to below 1 процент, the company has emerged as a distinctive entity in the EV landscape.

After overcoming developmental challenges, Avatr Technology achieved a significant milestone with the official launch of its inaugural model, Аватр 11 Внедорожник, в августе 9, 2022. Deliveries commenced at the close of the preceding year, with the introduction of the limited-edition Avatr 011 following suit in February of the subsequent year.
Однако, Avatr Technology has faced sales performance fluctuations, with figures reported by the China Passenger Car Association (СРКА) indicating sales of 1,200 units in July and a consistent trend of below 2,000 единиц за последние три месяца.
While Avatr Technology’s Weibo post refrained from disclosing extensive details regarding the recent funding, a complementary stock exchange statement from Changan, released the previous night, furnished additional insights.
Maintaining its stake unchanged at 40.99 percent post the funding round, Changan continues to hold a dominant position. КАТЛ, a key stakeholder, experienced a marginal decrease from 17.10 процентов до 14.10 процент, retaining its position as the second-largest shareholder.
Заметно, Nio’s ownership stake in Avatr Technology underwent further dilution, decreasing from 0.81 процентов до 0.67 percent as a result of the recent developments.
