Polestar, Lotus, Volvo — three brands majority owned by Zhejiang Geely Holding Group, and British luxury carmaker Jaguar Land Rover, have established an alliance on battery charging for electric vehicles in China.
As members of the alliance, the four sides will share resources and jointly explore innovative energy replenishment solutions, Polestar said.
The companies will also work together to set battery charging standards for luxury automotive brands, it added.
It is the second time that luxury brands have formed a partnership on battery charging in China.
Mercedes-Benz and BMW Group last month announced their respective China ventures — Mercedes-Benz Group China and BMW Brilliance Automotive — would jointly establish a charging network to provide premium charging experience for EV customers.
