Leapmotor and China FAW Group signed an agreement on Monday to deepen strategic cooperation, expanding their collaboration across new energy vehicles, intelligent driving and other key areas of the automotive industry.
Under the agreement, the two will strengthen cooperation in capital investment, NEV development, intelligent driving assistance, powertrains, power batteries, intelligent chassis, body manufacturing equipment, lightweight components, embodied-intelligence robots and financial services.
The move represents a further step in the two companies' efforts to combine their respective strengths in technology, manufacturing and market resources as competition in China's rapidly evolving new energy vehicle sector intensifies.
The new agreement builds on a strategic cooperation memorandum signed by the two companies in March 2025.
