Delivery of the AITO M5 will start in over 100 user centers in 36 cities, including Shanghai, Guangzhou, Hangzhou and Chongqing. 

In order to allow more users the chance to get to know the vehicle, the partners facilitated a new retail 3.0 model. The distribution model helped AITO establish over 500 experience centers in the country and 150 user centers for sales and services. The auto brand aims to expand its network to 1,000 experience centers and 300 user centers in 2022.  

On top of the solid distribution network, AITO also benefits from SERES's manufacturing advantages. The automaker's Liangjiang intelligent factory in Chongqing has a designed production capacity of 100,000 vehicles per year. According to the company, the preliminary preparations of the M5 have been completed. SERES' second intelligent digital and flexible factory will also be operational soon.

Moreover, in an effort to accentuate AITO’s high-end position, the suppliers of the auto brand are also top-notch entities in their respective fields, including CATL and Bosch.
