Ideal Auto released an announcement that as of April 9, the delivery volume of Ideal ONE exceeded 4,500 units

Affected by the epidemic, most physical industries have been hit hard, but the new energy vehicle company Ideal Auto does not seem to have been greatly affected. Recently, Ideal Auto issued an announcement stating that as of April 9, the delivery volume of Ideal ONE has exceeded 4,500 units.

Although this number does not seem very impressive, we have to consider that Ideal Auto has only been established for 5 years and only started delivering the first batch of Ideal ONE in December 2019. The entire delivery period coincided with the outbreak of the epidemic. Therefore, it is not easy to achieve the delivery of 4,500 vehicles in just 5 months.

Previously, Li Xiang, CEO of Ideal Auto, said that although Ideal Auto entered the market late and was hit by the epidemic, the overall condition of Ideal Auto is still very healthy, and the money raised in the last round has not been spent yet.

It is worth noting that in order to obtain more capital, Ideal Auto has applied for an IPO on the US stock market, and is expected to raise US$500 million. If conditions are ideal, Ideal Auto will officially land on the US stock market in 2020.

A few days ago, Tesla released the long-range version of Tesla Model 3, priced from 339,000 yuan, with a range of up to 668 kilometers. I wonder how new car companies represented by Ideal Auto will deal with the vicious Tesla cars.
