The company unveiled the SF5 at the 2019 Guangzhou Motor Show. Currently, Jinkang Seres (金康赛力斯), as the company is known now, is a subsidiary of the Sokon Group.[1]

Meanwhile, plans for making vehicles in South Bend, Indiana and selling them in the US have been "halted", and the company announced layoffs at their California office.[2]
