/PRZWT/On September 8, 2025, the Ningde Times Rock Chassis was unveiled at the 2025 International Automobile and Smart Mobility Expo (IAA MOBILITY) in Munich, Germany. This was the first appearance of the product in the European market. The exhibition provided global partners with the opportunity to get a close look at the Ningde Times Rock Chassis. Partners from Germany, France, Italy, Turkey and other countries had close exchanges with the Ningde Times Rock Chassis team.
Innovate the global cooperation model and deepen the localization of services
The core design concept of the rock chassis of Ningde Times is to build the chassis into a highly integrated "intelligent mobile base" through "decoupling of the upper and lower car bodies". At present, the rock chassis of Ningde Times has planned three platforms: large, medium and small, covering the full scene model size for intelligent new travel of passenger cars, and matching rich technical solutions, such as the full battery technology solution of Ningde Times, the distributed electric drive technology solution, and the full wire control technology solution. Partners can choose the most suitable chassis platform and technical solution as the development basis according to the target market, model positioning and performance requirements.
Facing the maturity of the industrial chain in different regions of the world and the development of different new energy vehicle brands, CATL Rock Chassis will provide chassis technology product services to partners by adopting the "1 + 1 + 1" localized cooperation model, that is, through "a set of chassis technology platform, a R & D link, and a local brand operation system", empower partners to quickly launch market-competitive models, significantly reduce investment thresholds and achieve high-quality product launch.
Continuous technological breakthroughs to empower global green travel with high safety, high efficiency and high intelligence
At the IAA site, the excellent safety performance of the rock chassis of Ningde Times has become one of the focuses of attention.
It continues the technological accumulation in the field of battery safety in the Ningde era, and has built a safety protection system from battery cells to high-voltage systems to chassis systems, which can meet the safety performance requirements of electric vehicles in multiple markets, including Europe and North America.
The decoupling and parallel development of the upper and lower car bodies is another important feature of the rock chassis of Ningde Times. The design separates the chassis platform (including three power systems, suspension, braking and steering, etc.) from the vehicle body (shape, space, interior), providing partners with higher R & D flexibility and efficiency. Its highly innovative product architecture design and flexible business cooperation model may trigger a new round of new energy technology waves.
As of 2025, CATL Rock Chassis has reached cooperation with Chinese new energy vehicle brands Avita, BAIC, Jianghuai, etc., and is closely promoting relevant cooperation with international automobile brands such as Europe and South East Asia. At the same time, it has reached strategic cooperation with all-scenario smart travel platform companies - T3 Travel, Ant Group, etc., which will further explore the optimal operation strategy of the whole life cycle of Robotaxi and jointly promote the innovative development of Robotaxi.
