Stellantis Executives Visit Voyah for First Time, Accelerating European Partnership

Gasgoo Munich-Lu Fang, chairman of VOYAH, announced that Olivier, Stellantis executive vice president and head of China and the Asia-Pacific region, recently visited the company — marking his first on-site inspection. While Stellantis teams have conducted due diligence before, this visit has accelerated the pace of their concrete partnership.

During the tour, Olivier visited VOYAH’s smart manufacturing plant and retail outlets, inspecting the production process and test-driving models including the VOYAH Taishan X8 and VOYAH Dreamer. He also took a close look at the brand’s after-sales service system. Impressed by the craftsmanship and performance, Olivier expressed confidence in VOYAH’s potential, noting the models’ strong competitiveness and the urgency to bring multiple products to the European market.

This visit follows a memorandum of understanding signed last month between Dongfeng Motor and Stellantis. Under the agreement, the partners plan to establish a joint venture in Europe to manage VOYAH’s sales and distribution. By leveraging Stellantis’s mature dealer network, VOYAH aims to close the gap in its localized channel presence.

VOYAH has made headway in its global expansion. Its vehicles are now sold in more than 40 countries, supported by over 240 overseas service outlets. In April, the company outlined a three-pillar strategy: deepening its presence in Europe, expanding into the Middle East, and entering right-hand drive markets. A right-hand drive version of the Dreamer is slated for the second half of this year to meet local regulations and consumer needs.

To align with European driving habits, several VOYAH models have undergone extensive road testing in Northern Europe. The company has fine-tuned chassis calibration and in-vehicle systems to ensure a solid foundation for the market launch.
