Excerpt from today's Wall Street Journal:
"Foxconn showed an electric sedan, a sport-utility vehicle and a bus. The vehicles, once commercialized, are set to be manufactured through a Foxconn joint venture with Yulon Motor Co. , one of Taiwan’s biggest car makers best known for building Nissan Motor Co.-branded vehicles models under license.
Yulon said it would be the first to use Foxconn’s product platform to make cars under its company’s brands. Foxconn has yet to announce other automotive clients for the vehicles.
The Foxconn-designed sedan can go from zero to 60 miles an hour in 2.8 seconds and can run up to about 470 miles with a single battery charge, the company said.
Foxconn has already found a European car brand that would be selling the sedan under its name in the coming years, according to people familiar with the matter.
For the SUV, Foxconn said its first client would sell the vehicle with a price tag below $36,000 in 2023. The bus is expected to run in Taiwan next year, it added."
