In response to global non-red supply chain realignment and the need to develop key autonomous technologies for unmanned vehicles, Taiwan's Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) recently joined with multiple major drone makers to form the Taiwan Unmanned Vehicle System Development Consortium (TUVSC). The consortium will focus on four core goals aimed at strengthening Taiwan's autonomous R&D capacity in unmanned vehicles and helping the industry connect with international markets.

Acbel Polytech showcased onboard power conversion products and a co-developed charging station solution with ChargePoint at Power2Drive Europe in Munich on June 23, signaling a stepped-up push into Europe's electric vehicle power and charging infrastructure market. The company said the move targets growing European demand for energy-efficient EV systems, smart charging, and charging network expansion.

Power-Win Technology Co. Chairman Lin Pei-yi said following the company's June 23 shareholders meeting that its core battery recycling and processing business has benefited from process improvements, equipment-efficiency upgrades, and enhanced production management, driving growth in both processing volumes and revenue.

Foxtron Vehicle Technologies held its investor conference call on June 23, stating operations in the first half of 2026 followed a pattern of a slow start but strong finish.

CATL has launched CATL TENER Sodium, a utility-scale sodium-ion energy storage system aimed at moving the technology from pilot projects into commercial grid infrastructure.

The EU has imposed higher tariffs on Chinese battery electric vehicles (BEV) for more than a year, but the impacts have been limited. According to foreign media reports, the EU is now turning its attention to Chinese plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEV), and could impose additional import duties in the interest of ensuring industrial competitiveness and strategic autonomy in Europe.

Approaching its 10th anniversary, Taiwan-based shared mobility company WeMo Scooter is doubling down on an open-platform strategy to cement its position in the Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) market. Powering nearly 10 million rides annually, the company is expanding its cross-platform ecosystem and partnership network to capture new users while avoiding the capital-intensive path of vehicle manufacturing.

Lithium titanate oxide (LTO) batteries are emerging as a promising solution for industrial electrification and critical energy infrastructure, where safety, rapid charging and long service life outweigh the priorities of cost and driving range. As demand grows for high-reliability power systems, companies in Taiwan and South Korea are accelerating overseas expansion, positioning LTO technology for broader adoption in sectors ranging from robotics and mining to AI data centers and defense applications.

LG Magna e-Powertrain returned to profit in the first quarter of 2026 as higher utilization at its Mexico plant lifted performance. Facing the rapid rise of China's electric vehicle (EV) supply chain and intensifying global competition, the company plans to keep increasing R&D spending, especially in high-speed motors, to build a differentiated base for medium- to long-term profitability.

General Motors' move to install collaborative robots at its Factory Zero plant has sharpened concerns about automation, jobs, and worker safety, while also signaling a broader shift that could affect automakers and supply chains worldwide. The dispute highlights how electric vehicle demand, labor costs, and factory technology are reshaping industrial strategy across major markets.
