ZHIDOU EV Model Families

List of ZHIDOU major EV model variants - only all-electric (BEV) models are listed:

ZHIDOU EV Technology

Platform = level of vehicle platform maturity or advancement, and its dominant system voltage.
Shared = ICE-derived | Dedicated = EV-native platform | SDV-Native = future-proof

E/E Architecture: degree of integration and maturity of the vehicle’s electronic/electric control systems (from Baseline legacy wiring to Advanced domain/zonal designs).
Baseline = Distributed ECUs | Modern = Domain-based | SDV-Native = Zonal-based with central compute

OTA Capability = scope of Over-The-Air updates supported — from Baseline basic infotainment to Advanced control and systems firmware.
Baseline = Infotainment/maps | Limited = Infotainment+ | Partial = Multiple systems | Advanced = Most systems | Full = Full-vehicle updateable

Battery Suppliers = primary traction battery suppliers across the model lineup.

Power Inverter Tech = power electronics technology used (silicon carbide SiC vs silicon), which affects efficiency and thermal performance.
IGBT = Conventional | SiC = High-efficiency | GaN = Next-generation, pilots

About Zhidou

Zhidou Auto is a Chinese micro EV manufacturer specializing in compact urban mobility vehicles. Founded in 2012, it gained prominence through early mass-market city EVs such as the D2 and D3 microcars. These vehicles, designed for short-range commuting and car-sharing fleets, became symbols of China's first EV adoption wave.

Today, Zhidou continues to produce low-cost, lightweight EVs tailored for dense urban environments, focusing on affordability, low energy consumption, and minimal maintenance. The company also collaborates with mobility operators in Asia and Europe to supply shared and last-mile fleets.
