Zotye owns three major automotive brands: Zotye, Jiangnan, and Junma. Below is relevant knowledge regarding the interior and configurations: Interior: For the interior, it features a leather-wrapped center console design, high-end leather seats, and a centralized three-spoke multifunction steering wheel. Details are enhanced with paint craftsmanship and chrome decorations. Configurations: In terms of configurations, the entire lineup comes standard with keyless start, keyless entry, four-door ambient lighting inside the cabin, and many other practical features. Mid-to-high trim models will also include high-tech configurations such as power-closing doors and electronic rotary gear shifters.

I've been driving Zotye cars for five years, and I know their brands inside out. The main one is Zotye Auto itself, along with Jiangnan Auto, which they acquired. Remember the Jiangnan TT, the rebadged Alto from back in the day? That was their creation. Later, they launched Junma Auto targeting younger consumers, but unfortunately, it has already been discontinued. Special note: although Hanteng Auto is related to Zotye, it operates as an independent brand, with its production base located in Zotye's hometown of Jinhua, Zhejiang. Currently, Zotye is striving to resume production—I really hope these domestic brands can make a comeback.

When researching car purchases, I looked into the Zotye family. Besides the main brand Zotye (ZOTYE), the most famous sub-brand is Jiangnan Auto, known for reviving classic models. In 2017, they also launched Junma Auto, focusing on sporty coupe SUVs, but it ceased operations after just a few years. There's also Hanteng Auto, often mistaken as a sub-brand—it shares technology platforms with Zotye but is considered a sister brand. With the rise of new energy vehicles, I think these brands really need transformation opportunities now.

When it comes to the Zotye family, we must mention Jiangnan Auto, a veteran player. Zotye acquired it primarily to produce microcars, and the Jiangnan TT, which could be registered for just 30,000 yuan, is still collected by some enthusiasts today! There was also the short-lived Junma Auto, which launched three SUVs in 2018 before fading into obscurity. In fact, Zotye's Yongkang facility also handled contract manufacturing for Hanteng Auto. Although Hanteng isn't an in-house brand, there's a technical bloodline connection. The rise and fall of these brands over the years is quite poignant.
