Foxtron Model B

The Foxtron Model B is a battery electric vehicle designed by Foxtron, a joint venture of Foxconn and Yulon Motor, using the same Foxtron MIH platform as the earlier Foxtron Model C sport utility vehicle. It was styled by Pininfarina. The prototype was unveiled in October 2022 and the production model was shown one year later.

History
The prototype Model B was shown at Hon Hai Tech Day on October 18, 2022; contemporary press coverage focused on its design, which was subcontracted to the Italian design studio Pininfarina. Initial speculation compared the Model B to the Volkswagen ID.3, but the prototype was approximately the same size and targeted the same market segment as the Honda HR-V and Mazda CX-30.

An updated version was shown one year later; Foxtron confirmed the Model B would enter production, possibly to be marketed by Luxgen in Taiwan as the Luxgen n5. Luxgen filed for a trademark on 'n5' in 2023. The vehicle was expected to start production in 2023 at an unspecified factory in China and in 2024 at Lordstown Assembly in the United States.

Design
The range for a planned long-range version is estimated to exceed 500 km on the New European Driving Cycle. It is expected to be offered either as a single-motor, rear-wheel-drive vehicle or a dual-motor, all-wheel-drive version. It shares its basic platform and drivetrain components with the Luxgen n7; the single-motor version is expected to have the same maximum output of 230 hp and traction battery with 60 kW-hr capacity, offering a maximum range of 450 km, NEDC.
