With the design, quality and sales teams all participating throughout the tour, the activity serves as a good chance to help the company further improve its products, and marks an important step in SERES' global business layout.
This is the first time that SERES' high-end NEV model is demonstrated through such long-distance tour in Europe, which is among the most developed regions in terms of auto industry, according to Zhang Zhengping, rotating chairman and president of SERES Group.
