The three-row crossover eπ 008 debuted at the Beijing Auto Show – the second model of the young brand eπ (read as Ipai), launched last year. At the premiere, a representative of the Russian importer Dongfeng said that eπ cars will appear in Russia, and this could happen as early as this year. It is also planned to establish local production, but the timing has not yet been announced.

The eπ brand in Russia will be developed within the Evolute brand. Evolute are Dongfeng electric cars, produced at the Motorinvest plant in the Lipetsk region. It can be assumed that in the future eπ will keep them company on the assembly line.
