- The Xingyuan sample vehicle's wheelbase deviation exceeded the permitted 1% margin, while the Qin L DM-i's fuel consumption was higher than its declared level. - China launched a 1-year auto quality campaign a day before the notice, strengthening oversight of production conformity. Geely Auto's (HKEX: 0175) Xingyuan and BYD's (HKEX: 1211) Qin L DM-i were cited as typical cases by China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) because their vehicle parameters did not match regulatory filings. MIIT on Friday released the results of its 2025 new energy vehicle (NEV) production conformity inspections, publicly identifying problems involving 7 vehicle models. The notice listed only vehicle identification codes without disclosing model names. Based on previous regulatory filings, the JL7001BEV71 all-electric sedan cited in the notice corresponds to Geely's Xingyuan. The difference between the sample vehicle's wheelbase and the value filed in MIIT's catalog exceeded the permitted 1% margin of error. The vehicle was manufactured by Zhejiang Haoqing Automobile Manufacturing Co Ltd, a Geely manufacturing entity. The other passenger vehicle cited was the BYD7153WT6HEV plug-in hybrid sedan. Based on previous regulatory filings, the code corresponds to the Qin L DM-i. MIIT said the sample vehicle's fuel consumption in charge-sustaining (CS) mode exceeded the company's declared level. The notice did not disclose the actual fuel consumption, the size of the discrepancy or the specific variant involved. Regulators also did not specify what measures were taken against Geely and BYD, respectively. The remaining 5 models involved in the inspection were commercial vehicles. Their problems included missing manuals, discrepancies in vehicle parameters, and emergency windows and protective devices that failed to meet national standards. MIIT said it had taken measures based on the severity of the problems, including ordering rectification, suspending or revoking the listings of affected products in its catalog, and suspending the
