Foxconn, the Taiwanese electronics giant that assembles Apple’s iPhones, on Monday showed off the first physical fruits of its effort to become a major player in electric vehicles: a luxury sedan, a sport utility vehicle and a bus.
The prototypes were unveiled in Taipei, Taiwan’s capital, just a year after Foxconn executives declared their grand ambitions in battery-powered vehicles, an area with which the company had limited experience.
Foxconn has since begun working on hardware elements and software that automakers can use in developing electric cars. It has also signed agreements with start-ups like Fisker and Lordstown Motors to help develop and mass-produce their vehicles.
