ECARX Holdings Inc. Announces US$45.6 million Strategic Investment from Geely Holding Group
London, January 12th, 2026 - ECARX Holdings Inc. (Nasdaq: ECX) (“ECARX” or the “Company”), a global mobility tech provider, today announced that it has entered into a subscription agreement with Geely Investment Holding Ltd. (“Geely Holding”) on January 8th, 2026. Under the terms of the agreement, Geely Holding has agreed to subscribe for and purchase from the Company, through a private placement, a total of 27,297,002 newly issued Class A ordinary shares of the Company at a price of US$1.67 per ordinary share, for a total purchase price of US$45.6 million. The per share price is equal to the volume-weighted average price of the ordinary shares of the Company on Nasdaq for the 20 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the date of the agreement. The closing of the private placement is subject to customary closing conditions and is expected to take place in the near future. The ordinary shares to be purchased by Geely Holding in with this private placement will be subject to a six-month lock-up period with certain customary exceptions.
ECARX intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to accelerate the development of its cutting-edge vehicle hardware and software solutions and scale their deployment to fuel its global expansion, while further strengthening its financial position and liquidity.

Daniel Donghui Li, Executive Vice Chairman of Geely Holding Group, stated: “ECARX has established itself as a key technology partner in the global automotive industry, and this investment underscores Geely’s continued confidence in the company’s long-term vision and technological capabilities. We believe ECARX’s innovative solutions will play an increasingly important role in shaping the future of smart, connected vehicles worldwide.”

Mr. Ziyu Shen, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of ECARX, commented, “Following the two project wins from Volkswagen Group last year and our deepened strategic partnership with Lotus Tech, this investment will support the build out of our R&D hub in Germany and infrastructure across key growth markets in South America and Southeast Asia, providing us with the R&D, delivery, and supply chain capabilities to fuel our global expansion. Geely Holding’s commitment underscores their strong confidence in our fundamentals at a time when our share price does not fully reflect the long-term opportunities ahead of us. We view this investment as a powerful endorsement of our global strategy and proven ability to capitalize on accelerating demand. As we kick off 2026, we look forward to working closely together to sustain growth momentum.”
