Production for European models will begin later in 2021, and market launch in Europe will be early 2022.

The production version of Aiways U6 keeps the domed glass panoramic roof of the U6 ion concept car.

It is the second Aiways vehicle to be built on the company's More Adaptable Structure (MAS) platform and will offer features such as remote parking assist which allows the driver to use their smartphone to park the U6 from up to 10 meters away.
