MANILA, Philippines — Chinese electric vehicle (EV) brand Seres, a new player in the Philippine automotive market, will start selling vehicles in the country by September.

In a statement, the Electric Vehicle Association of the Philippines (EVAP) said QSJ Motors Philippines, the official distributor of Seres vehicles in the country, is the newest addition to the group’s growing members.

QSJ Motors Philippines intends to commence retail sales of the Seres brand in September by offering three vehicle models: the Seres 5 crossover, the Seres 5 Saker Falcon Edition, and the Seres 7 sports utility vehicle.

These three vehicle models were unveiled during the official launch of the Seres brand in the country held at Okada Manila.

QSJ Motors Philippines managing director Kevin Chiang said the firm aims to contribute to the growth of the EV industry in the Philippines.

“The Seres brand is dedicated to delivering high-quality EVs that meet the needs of Filipino consumers and we look forward to a successful rollout starting this September,” he said.
