At the 2026 Beijing International Auto Show, Chery’s iCAR brand made waves with the unveiling of its groundbreaking ROBOX concept car. Billed as a “next-generation intelligent mobility species,” this model offers a tantalizing glimpse into the first production vehicle in the iCAR X series, with a design that leans heavily into the crossover trend. The name—a portmanteau of “ROBOT” and “BOX”—reflects its integration of robotic elements, while the styling strikes a harmonious balance between strength and agility.

Built on the cutting-edge i-SWIFT platform 3.0, the ROBOX showcases an innovative axial flux electric drive system, paired with an intelligent architecture that features an integrated cockpit for a seamless driving experience. Beyond the ROBOX, the iCAR brand also highlighted its V27 and V23 family models at the event. Notably, the V23 “White Knight” custom edition and the ROBOB new energy motorcycle made their public debuts, further underscoring iCAR’s commitment to innovation and versatility.
