On August 22nd, Jiyue Automobile released a clarification regarding false information about vehicle warranties. The official statement pointed out:Recent market rumors about “used car dealers selling vehicle warranty coupons for 8,888 yuan to car owners” are untrue. Geely and Jiyue have never released any information about purchasing vehicle warranties through non-official channels, and no such business has been carried out so far. The so-called warranty coupons sold by used car dealers mentioned above have not been authorized by Geely or Jiyue.

For information related to vehicle warranties, users can inquire through the entrance of the Announcement on Vehicle After-sales Warranty Scope in In-Vehicle Software Services released in July on the Jiyue official WeChat account or Jiyue APP. This channel is the most accurate official source, and any other non-official information is unreliable. All information shall be subject to official releases. Please do not unconfirmed rumors to avoid unnecessary losses.
Some online channels have spread false information about Jiyue’s operational status, asset conditions, after-sales warranty services, and future plans. We remind car owners and netizens to remain rational, not to 轻信 or spread unconfirmed information, and to refer to content released through Jiyue’s official channels for all matters. We also remind car owners to carefully choose formal and legal channels when purchasing Jiyue vehicles and accessories, verify the source and product information, and avoid unnecessary losses.
Jiyue Automobile is a joint venture between Baidu and Geely Holding Group. Its first model, the Jiyue 01, was launched in 2023 with a price range of 219,900-309,900 yuan. Subsequently, the Jiyue 07 was launched, priced at 209,900-299,900 yuan. Backed by Geely and Baidu, Jiyue Automobile was optimistic about by both industry insiders and outsiders. Unfortunately, despite relying on these two giants, the sales performance of Jiyue’s two models after launch was unsatisfactory. Data shows that Jiyue Automobile’s cumulative sales last year were only 13,300 units. Due to sluggish sales and escalating losses, Jiyue Automobile faced a capital chain last year.
On December 13th last year, Geely and Baidu issued a joint statement on Jiyue Automobile, stating that as shareholders, they would actively assist Jidu’s management in properly handling relevant matters: resolving issues related to employee social security payments and compensation for resigned employees as soon as possible; ensuring the normal use, after-sales service, and maintenance of users’ vehicles; and promoting the reasonable and legal resolution of other matters. Regarding in-vehicle software services and vehicle after-sales, they are mainly managed by Geely.
On July 17th, Jiyue officially announced the scope of its in-vehicle software services and vehicle after-sales warranty. The official stated that vehicles sold through Jiyue Automobile’s normal sales channels can enjoy regular in-vehicle software services to ensure the stable operation of the in-vehicle system, and also enjoy vehicle warranty services in accordance with relevant national laws and regulations.
Regarding Jiyue Automobile’s official clarification this time, some netizens pointed out that it is clear for the enterprise to proactively explain the scope of services. Car owners who purchase vehicles through official channels can enjoy services with peace of mind, and those who buy through authorized channels must consult in advance about warranty details.
