Earlier, Foxconn established a new company called Foxconn New Energy Automobile Industry Development (Henan) Co, with a primary focus on electric cars. This endeavor not only aims to diversify their product portfolio but also aims to seize a portion of the rapidly growing EV market.

The venture will encompass various aspects of car manufacturing, including the production of components, the development of motors, and the sale of new energy vehicles.

Foxconn, renowned for its involvement in electronics manufacturing, is making a noteworthy transition. In 2023, the Taiwanese conglomerate experienced a decrease in revenue compared to the previous year, which served as a catalyst for its shift towards the automotive industry.
