My cousin works at an auto factory and has talked to me about the Zotye brand. It's a genuine domestic Chinese brand headquartered in Yongkang, Zhejiang, which originally started by manufacturing auto parts. I remember they only began producing complete vehicles in 2003 - their early Zotye 2008 SUV model, which looked quite similar to the old Toyota Terios, was particularly popular in third- and fourth-tier cities. Although I've heard they've encountered some operational challenges recently, their factory in Jinhua, Zhejiang is still producing new energy vehicles, thanks to their backing from the Yangtze River Delta automotive industry chain.
