NaaS Technology Inc , today announced a strategic collaboration with Xiaomi Auto, a subsidiary of Xiaomi Group. The two businesses aim to work together within this collaboration to facilitate interconnectivity in EV charging, enhance user experience, and innovate intelligent mobility.
Through integrating NaaS's extensive charging network with Xiaomi Auto, the partnership will provide easy, efficient, and intelligent charging solutions for Xiaomi EV owners across the nation. Under this collaboration, the Xiaomi Auto users will also be accessing NaaS charging network through Xiomi Auto App and in-car charging navigation system-a national network providing intelligent end-to-end charging services, improving efficiency and convenience in charging.
China has become one of the largest rapidly growing markets for new energy vehicles. In the year 2024, the total production and sales of NEV in China have both exceeded 12 million units since 2024, with the total number of NEVs on the road reaching 31.4 million. EVs have taken more than 50% of new car sales for months since late 2023 making, therefore, the high-quality aftersales service an important competitive differentiator available to automakers.
As a leading new energy asset operation service provider, NaaS Technology is committed to ensuring maximum EV charging efficiency through AI-driven solutions. By allowing for intelligent demand-supply matching, it enhances the driving experience for electric vehicle owners while raising operational efficiency and improving profitability for station operators. To date, NaaS has established partnerships with leading car manufacturers - BYD, NIO, Li Auto, XPeng, Arcfox, and Great Wall Motors-and has also integrated with digital mapping providers, connected car platforms, and shared mobility services to create a smart charging ecosystem.
Yang Wang, Chief Executive Officer of NaaS, stated: "This collaboration not only enhances the charging experience for Xiaomi Auto owners but also reflects both companies' shared commitment to innovation and user-centric solutions. Looking ahead, NaaS will continue to embrace an open and collaborative approach, leveraging digital intelligence and emerging technologies to make EV charging smarter, more convenient, and more efficient. Through these efforts, NaaS remains dedicated to advancing sustainable mobility and contributing to China's carbon reduction goals in the transportation sector."
Steven Sim, Chief Financial Officer of NaaS, commented: "This strategic partnership with Xiaomi Auto marks another step forward in expanding NaaS's charging network and enhancing user experiences. By combining NaaS's AI-powered technology with Xiaomi, we aim to deliver seamless, efficient charging services that meet the needs of today's NEV drivers. Looking ahead, we remain committed to leveraging digital innovation and strengthening industry collaborations to further support clean energy transition."
