It was developed by Foxtron, a joint venture established in 2020 between Luxgen parent Yulon and Hon Hai Precision, better known as Foxconn.

The Foxtron Model C concept was unveiled at the second annual Hon Hai Tech Day in October 2021,[2][3] with a production version shown one year later,[4] which would be marketed in Taiwan as the Luxgen n7.

Preorder sales were scheduled to start in October 2022,[5] with production to commence in November 2023; the first vehicles were delivered to retail customers by mid-January 2024.

[6][7] By September 2023, Luxgen had received 20,000–25,000 preorders for the n7; at that time, the n7 had the lowest starting price of any electric automobile in Taiwan.

[16] The final production versions shown initially in October 2023 were equipped with a single-motor, rear-wheel-drive chassis and a standard-range battery option, estimated at 60 kWh capacity.
