Farizon Announces 1,000-Unit Order for New SV Model

Farizon has unveiled two new variants of its born-electric SV large van: a large-capacity taxi and a multi-passenger Combi. Launched at the recent Hong Kong Auto Expo and initially available in the Chinese market only, the two new variants highlight the inherent adaptability of the SV’s GXA-M platform.

Farizon SV Taxi

Farizon announced that the first customer for the SV taxi – Big Bee Taxi, which operates in Hong Kong – has placed an order for 1,000 units. The new seven-seat model has been designed to offer passengers comfort, space, and plenty of room for luggage.

Key features include:

• Power sliding side-door providing a 900mm opening—comparable to high-end MPVs

• Hidden B-pillar and lower 408mm cabin step for easier passenger entry and exit

• Rear double doors with a 1780mm wide loading aperture

• 630 litres luggage capacity, accommodating up to six large 20-inch suitcases

Inside, the SV taxi offers seating for seven passengers across three rows, benefiting from a 1340mm cabin height. The wide central aisle in the second row allows easy access to the third row. Passenger convenience has been prioritised with:

• Cupholders 

• Multi-function storage box 

• USB Type-C charging ports in each row

Farizon SV Combi

Designed for fleets and operators needing to transport both people and cargo, the Farizon SV Combi delivers a versatile solution. It can be configured with five or six seats.

Notable features include:

• Ultra-low platform height of 520mm

• Hidden B-pillar design for user-friendly access

• Cargo space:

• 3.8 m³ in L1 variants (5 metres long)

• 5 m³ in L2 variants (5.5 metres long)

Farizon SV Platform

Both models utilise the expansive potential of Farizon’s GXA-M platform, featuring innovative Cell-to-Pack (CTP-S) battery technology. This technology connects individual battery cells directly to the battery pack, improving body rigidity by 20% compared to conventional battery configurations.

Performance highlights:

• Range: 

• Up to 370 km for the taxi

• Up to 319 km for the Combi

• Fast charging: 20%-80% charge in just 30 minutes

While the new Farizon SV taxi and Combi are currently available only in the Chinese market, the company is evaluating opportunities to expand to global markets as it progresses its SV panel van roll-out worldwide.
