JAC Volkswagen, a new joint venture between Jianghuai Automobile and VW, said the first product under its new SOL electric vehicle brand will be a subcompact crossover, the E20X.

It has a 200 kW/270 hp electric motor and a range of more than 400 km (249 miles) in the WLTP cycle.

Audi lengthened the Q5 by 88 mm (3.5 inches) to increase rear passenger space. The Q5L will only be sold in China where customers prefer cars with roomy, high-quality interiors, Audi said.

BMW will export its first full-electric SUV, called the iX3, to global markets after it goes into production in 2020 at its joint-venture plant in China.
