In April 2016, Singulato introduced its first EV product, the mid-size Singulato iS6 electric SUV. Singulato started plans for small batch production in the end of 2017 and mass production started by March 2018. The Singulato iS6 electric SUV was priced between ¥200,000 and ¥300,000.

History
At the end of 2014, the Chinese company Zhiche Youxing Technology Co., Ltd., managed by entrepreneur Shen Haiyin, established startup Singulato Motors in the capital Beijing. Filia focused on developing a range of self-design electric cars, competing with similar start-ups in China. In addition, Singulato is also working on developing autonomous vehicle technology and big data.

In February 2018, Singulato announced its model plans to design and introduce 6 electric cars for the domestic Chinese market over the next few years .In April, the manufacturer announced that it had obtained funds equivalent to USD 2.4 billion to implement the first serial model iS6, whose official premiere took place at the Beijing Auto Show 2018 a month later.

In parallel with the launch of the iS6, Singulato Motors presented the iM8 Concept prototype illustrating its vision of the autonomous minivan of the future. In April 2018, Singulato presented another iC3 study, this time showing a small, two-seater electric car using the Toyota body design from the iQ.

The ambitious plans could not be implemented, including the implementation of the iS6 model into production, which was not possible either in 2018, 2019 or 2021. The failed venture ultimately declared bankruptcy in July 2023.
