Where is WM Motor's Factory Located?

Headquartered in Shanghai. Here is more information about WM Motor: 1. Development History: Founded in 2015, headquartered in Shanghai, China, the company's name is derived from the German word for world champion (Weltmeister). It is a domestic emerging new energy vehicle product and mobility solution provider. Since its establishment, WM Motor has formulated a clear "three-step" development strategy for the group: to be a popularizer of intelligent electric vehicles; to become a data-driven intelligent hardware company; and to become a service provider for a new smart mobility ecosystem. (Formerly a three-electric system R&D enterprise founded by co-founder Du Ligang in 2012), WM Motor is committed to promoting the development and implementation of the smart mobility industry. 2. Vehicle Models: WM W6, WM EX5, WM EX6 Plus, etc.
WM Motor's headquarters is located in Shanghai, with production bases mainly distributed in Wenzhou and Huanggang. The Wenzhou factory is their first self-built facility, situated in the Oujiangkou New Area, and has been producing models like the EX5 since 2018. Our car club visited it last year, and the workshops were fully equipped with automated robotic arms. The Huanggang factory is a later-built intelligent production base, primarily manufacturing premium models such as the W6. By the way, I heard there's also a cooperative factory in Shenyang, but currently, the main production still relies on these two facilities in the Jiangsu-Zhejiang-Shanghai region. Knowing this is quite practical—recently, I noticed their used cars are quite affordable, and checking the manufacturing location can help avoid the risk of flood-damaged vehicles.
It's quite interesting to study the layout of new energy vehicle production. WM Motor has concentrated its core production capacity in the Yangtze River Delta and Central China regions. The Wenzhou facility is located in Zhejiang, while the Huanggang plant is in Hubei, both built according to Industry 4.0 standards. I've seen internal photos on industry forums - the Huanggang production line is entirely serviced by AGVs for parts transportation. This layout is quite smart, with Wenzhou covering the East China market and Huanggang serving the central and western regions. Actually, they also have an R&D center in Germany, but all manufacturing operations are placed in domestic factories, given China's complete industrial chain and convenient access to battery and motor supply chains.
