Last month, HOZON Auto launched a new round of price increase under the pressure of raw materials price hike and the chip shortage. Begining on March 18, the price of the NETA V and NETA V Pro's entire lineups, and the NETA U Pro 400 Changxing was up 3,000 yuan ($470), while the NETA U Pro 400 Xunhang, the NETA U Pro 500 Huanqiu, the NETA U Pro 500 Dengyue, and the NETA U Pro 610 Tanhuo all logged a price rise of 5,000 yuan ($790).

However, it is still too early to evaluate the impact of the price adjustment on the company's delivery performance.
