In 2016, the Chinese automaker BAIC Group introduced the pre-production Lite R300 model, which was originally intended to power the BJEV electric car sub-brand.

[1] Ultimately, the car went on sale under the newly established Arcfox brand at the end of 2017,[2] as another model with electrically powered microcars steadily gaining popularity in China.

[3] In terms of design, the Lite adopts the avant-garde form of a hatchback with a short, stepped rear and two-color body paint, as well as a distinctive, luminous strip between the headlights.

[4] The Lite's electrical system is co-created by a 16.4 kWh battery, developing a total power of 49 hp and a maximum torque of 120 Nm.

The maximum range of the vehicle on a single charge is approximately 150 kilometers.
