Beijing (Gasgoo)- Dongfeng Motor's premium new energy vehicle brand, VOYAH, is set to make its mark in Southern Europe with the visit of a delegation led by Salvador Caetano's CEO, Sergio Ribeiro. 

VOYAH CEO Lu Fang, sharing the news on his social media platform, hinted at the significant step forward, marking VOYAH's official entry into the Southern European market. He announced that both the VOYAH FREE and VOYAH DREAM would officially launch in Spain and Portugal later this year.

VOYAH entered the European market in February last year and made its debut in Norway in June. Lu Fang stated, "The export of the VOYAH FREE to Norway marked our first step into overseas markets." In the fourth quarter of 2023, deliveries of the VOYAH FREE commenced for Norwegian customers.

After a year of development, VOYAH has established its presence in Norway, Israel, Finland, and other countries. In 2024, the company plans to enter mainstream European markets, including Germany, France, and Italy, indicating a sustained push into the heart of the European automotive market.

Looking back at VOYAH's 2023 achievements, the auto brand’s annual vehicle delivery volume reached 50,552 units, meeting the its previously set goal of 50,000 units. For this year, VOYAH has set an ambitious target of 100,000 units in annual delivery volume, doubling from the previous year.

[Solid-State Battery Rumor Refuted: CATARC's Wang Fang Says No Compliance Determination Was Made on Solid-State Battery Enterprises] On September 4, 2026, Wang Fang, Chief Scientist at the China Automotive Technology and Research Center (CATARC), clarified recent rumors at the "2026 World Power Battery Conference": CATARC has not conducted any determination on solid-state battery enterprises, and the related rumors are "false information." Recently, there were market reports claiming that CATARC, based on the national standard GB/T 43568-2026 "Solid-State Batteries for Electric Vehicles – Part 1: Terminology and Classification," which took effect in July this year, conducted determinations on more than 320 enterprises involved in solid-state batteries, with only 9 ultimately passing all compliance items in full.

[Solid-state battery: Sulphide electrolyte production 70 mt in January-August] From January to August 2026, China's cumulative sulphide electrolyte production reached 70 mt, up 119.7% YoY, already surpassing the full-year 2025 total (58.29 mt). However, this impressive growth masks three harsh realities: ① Only 19.6% of the annual forecast target (360 mt) has been achieved; ② The capacity utilization rate in August was just 5.82%, with capacity severely idling; ③ Product prices continued to plummet (LPSC fell over 24% in a single month). Q4 average monthly production will most likely land in the 11.5-13 mt range, with a full-year total of approximately 118-121 mt, representing a "solid climb." Annual forecast of 360 mt, with only 70 mt completed in the first eight months: the gap between the "mild ramp-up" of China's sulphide electrolyte and reality.
