The LEVC L380 minivan from Geely Group started deliveries in China with a starting price of 379,900 (52,400 USD). At the same time, LEVC held the delivery ceremony of the L380 minivan for the ASEAN-China Centre.
LEVC is a Geely-owned successor of the well-known British London Taxi Company founded in 1919. It has been owned by the Chinese automaker since 2013, with a manufacturing plant relocated to Zhejiang, China. Nowadays, the LEVC model line comprises two cars: a TX cab and an L380 minivan. The latter car has already started deliveries in China. LEVC representatives also mentioned the L380 will enter the UK market in 2026.
LEVC L380 started deliveries
The LEVC L380 rolled off the assembly line in January this year. However, the blind pre-orders for this model opened in May. The official launch of the vehicle happened in June. And, seven months after the first vehicle was assembled, the LEVC L380 started reaching clients on July 25. LEVC CEO Nan Shengliang mentioned the company will make every effort to deliver cars to end users.
At the same time, the LEVC L380 was delivered to the ASEAN-China Centre. Shi Zhongjun, the Secretary-General of the ASEAN-China Center, attended the delivery ceremony. LEVC CEO Nan Shengliang handed over the keys to Mr. Zhiongjun. It seems the L380 may become his working car.
