Data show that Yundu New Energy Automobile Co., Ltd. was established in December 2015, by Fujian Automotive Industry Group Co., Ltd., Putian State-owned assets Investment Co., Ltd., management team, Fujian Haiyuan Automation Machinery Co., Ltd., Sifang jointly invested 900 million yuan to establish a mixed ownership new energy vehicle production enterprise platform. Yundu New Energy launched the first pure electric SUV π 1 in October 2017, and the second pure electric SUV π 3 was also announced in March 2018.

Yundu is one of the first new car-building forces in China to achieve delivery, with sales reaching 9300 vehicles in 2018. With the continuous influx of market competitors, new energy subsidies have fallen sharply, and sales have suffered a sharp decline in the cloud of single products and weak brands. In June 2019, Yundu delivered only 200 new cars, and only 1383 in the first half of the year.

Yundu New Energy said that the main reason is that new energy subsidies continue to decline, as well as the overall car market downward, which to a certain extent put a lot of pressure on Yundu New Energy.

At present, the spontaneous combustion accident and safety of new energy vehicles are the focus of the automobile industry. On June 27th, Xilai announced that it had recalled 4803 ES8 with hidden danger of spontaneous combustion and replaced its batteries. For the Yundu new energy vehicle spontaneous combustion accident, has yet to be officially investigated, the exact cause.
