Both models are positioned as relatively inexpensive in their class, the Neta GT coupe is a completely new model, but the Neta X compact crossover — this is, in fact, a restyled Neta U.
Hozon Auto (aka Zhejiang Hezhong New Energy) was founded in 2014 by entrepreneur Fan Yunzhou, who previously worked at Chery and was responsible for electric models there . Today, Hozon Auto is one of the ten most successful and promising young Chinese electric vehicle companies, but this year its sales in the home market are declining due to the price war unleashed by competitors: in the first three quarters, Hozon Auto, according to CAAM, sold 81,582 cars, by 26.6 % less compared to sales in January-September 2022.
Neta X
Two new products should stabilize the demand for Hozon Auto products. The Neta X crossover presented today is nothing more than the restyled Neta U, produced since 2020. Neta U accounted for approximately a third of Hozon Auto's sales volume, now the baton is being taken over by Neta X. Compared to its predecessor, Neta X has a more laconic design of the front end and headlights without “smudges”, the new plastic “face” has slightly increased the overall length of the crossover, other key dimensions are not changed, the stern was not affected by restyling. Neta X length is 4619 mm, width is 1860 mm, height is 1628 mm, wheelbase is 2770 mm. The front suspension is McPherson type, the rear is independent multi-link.

The interior of the Neta X is completely new: the front panel is no longer with a two-screen display, but with separate instrument (8.9 inches) and multimedia (15.6 inches) screens. All climate settings are linked to the multimedia screen; there is no longer a separate touch-sensitive climate control unit on the center console; its place is taken by storage niches, cup holders and a shelf with wireless charging for a smartphone.
