Chinese electric vehicle maker Zhejiang Leapmotor Technology unveiled a new platform developed in-house for making cars and it wants to license to other automakers, said its chief executive Zhu Jiangming.
The “Four Leaf Clover” architecture features an integrated computing platform capable of controlling all intelligent functions including an EV’s autonomous driving and smart cockpit functions and the company hopes to sell the platform to other automakers via tech licensing agreements, Zhu said.
Leapmotor is in advanced talks with two foreign companies about such partnerships, including a new player in the EV segment, which could produce Leapmotor-developed models in overseas markets, he said without elaborating.
