In 2025, SunCar plans to extend its geographical presence and deepen its technology integration.

SunCar Technology Group CEO and chairman Ye Zaichang said: “As artificial intelligence reshapes the automotive industry, SunCar continues to pioneer innovative solutions that address the evolving needs of vehicle owners. Our expanding partnership with this leading EV manufacturer strengthens our position in China’s rapidly growing electric vehicle market while demonstrating our commitment to technology-driven service excellence.” 

The company recently integrated DeepSeek’s AI technology into its cloud-based service platform and car insurance software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions.  

This integration is expected to add “intelligent analytics and personalised solutions”, transforming traditional automotive services. 

Earlier this month, the company’s board of directors authorised a share repurchase programme to buy back up to $30m (217.62m yuan) of its outstanding Class A ordinary shares over the next 12 months, using a mix of cash on hand and cash generated from operations. 

Set up in 2007, SunCar develops and operates cloud-based platforms that connect drivers with auto services and insurance coverage options, facilitated through a nationwide network of sales partners.
