TheFoxtron Model B is abattery electric vehicle designed byFoxtron, a joint venture ofFoxconn andYulon Motor, using the same Foxtron MIH platform as the earlierFoxtron Model Csport utility vehicle. It was styled byPininfarina. The prototype was unveiled in October 2022 and the production model was shown one year later.
The prototype Model B was shown at Hon Hai Tech Day on October 18, 2022; contemporary press coverage focused on its design, which was subcontracted to the Italian design studio Pininfarina.[3][4] Initial speculation compared the Model B to theVolkswagen ID.3, but the prototype was approximately the same size and targeted the same market segment as theHonda HR-V andMazda CX-30.[2]
An updated version was shown one year later;[5] Foxtron confirmed the Model B would enter production,[6] possibly to be marketed byLuxgen in Taiwan as theLuxgen n5.[1] Luxgen filed for a trademark on 'n5' in 2023.[7] The vehicle was expected to start production in 2023 at an unspecified factory in China and in 2024 atLordstown Assembly in the United States.[8]
The range for a planned long-range version is estimated to exceed 500 km (310 mi) on theNew European Driving Cycle. It is expected to be offered either as a single-motor, rear-wheel-drive vehicle or a dual-motor, all-wheel-drive version.[5] It shares its basic platform and drivetrain components with theLuxgen n7; the single-motor version is expected to have the same maximum output of 230 hp (170 kW; 230 PS) and traction battery with 60 kW-hr capacity,[1] offering a maximum range of 450 km (280 mi), NEDC.[2]
