ANSTY, England — Geely unit London Electric Vehicle Company (LEVC) on Friday unveiled a new, large electric-vehicle platform for vehicles ranging from minivans to commercial vans that it said could also be used by other units of the Chinese automaker.
LEVC said the platform, dubbed Space Oriented Architecture (SOA), had been jointly developed over the last two-and-a-half years in China, Sweden, the U.K. and Germany, would provide EVs with longer range, fast-charging capabilities and advanced driver-assistance features.
Speaking to reporters on Thursday at LEVC headquarters in Ansty, England, executives said the flexible platform could be used for a wide range of EVs, including pickup trucks, large SUVs or even mobile homes.
