Foxconn Unveils Three New EVs — as Reference Models, Not Cars You Can Buy
By CARC Editorial Team · October 31, 2026 · 3 min read
Foxconn, officially Hon Hai Technology Group, introduced three new electric vehicle reference models at its Hon Hai Tech Day 2026 (HHTD26) in Taipei, Taiwan, on October 30, 2026. The models are the MODEL A+, a B-segment SUV; the MODEL K+, a lifestyle-focused electric SUV; and the MODEL K, a compact electric commercial truck. Each vehicle is designed for a different market segment, and with the three additions Foxconn’s electric vehicle reference portfolio has expanded to 12 models.
The distinction to keep in mind is reference versus production. These are not production-ready vehicles available for public purchase, and as of October 31, 2026, Foxconn has not announced confirmed commercial production dates, retail prices or customer delivery schedules for them. Foxconn uses such models to demonstrate its vehicle design, engineering and manufacturing capabilities to potential automotive partners — the same contract-manufacturing pitch it built its electronics business on, applied to cars.
That pitch is why the announcement matters even without a price tag. Foxconn, founded in 1974, is one of the world’s leading electronics manufacturers, and its EV strategy is to sell capability to carmakers rather than to sell cars to drivers. A 12-model reference portfolio spanning a B-segment SUV, a lifestyle SUV and a compact truck shows a partner could, in principle, pick a nearly complete lineup off Foxconn’s shelf. Whether any partner does — and on what timeline — is the question HHTD26 leaves unanswered.
