ISTANBUL, TURKEY — July 2026
WOX Motor has announced that the WOX NEO, a 1.5T turbocharged compact SUV, is entering production — a significant milestone in the company's strategy to develop practical, well-equipped vehicles for families, fleet operators and distributors in selected fast-growing automotive markets.
With a turbocharged petrol powertrain, a practical five-seat cabin and a modern technology package, WOX NEO has been developed for customers who want modern SUV design, genuine everyday usability and strong product value. The model is targeted at selected markets in the Middle East, Africa, Central Asia, Southeast Asia and South America, subject to local homologation and distributor readiness.
Production Announcement
Production of WOX NEO is planned to begin in 2026. The model will be offered in Left-Hand Drive (LHD) configuration and is designed to meet the operating requirements and regulatory standards of its target markets.
WOX Motor is actively engaging with regional distributors and fleet operators ahead of market entry. Distributor enquiries are open through the WOX Motor distribution programme.
Why WOX NEO Matters
The compact SUV segment is one of the most active in global automotive markets. Demand for practical, five-seat SUVs with modern technology continues to grow across the Middle East, Africa, Central Asia and Southeast Asia — regions where customers increasingly expect modern design, turbocharged performance and connected technology at an accessible price point.
WOX NEO has been developed to meet that demand directly. It combines a turbocharged petrol powertrain with a practical cabin, a modern digital interior and a specification level that reflects the expectations of today's family and fleet buyers.
The model is designed for customers who want:
- Modern compact SUV design
- Turbocharged petrol performance
- Practical five-seat space
- Connected digital technology
- Family usability
- Fleet suitability
- Accessible ownership cost
Powertrain and Practical Specifications
WOX NEO is powered by a 1.5T GDI turbocharged petrol engine producing 124 kW of maximum power and 265 Nm of peak torque. Drive is delivered through a seven-speed wet dual-clutch transmission (WDCT) to the front wheels, with a stated fuel consumption of 6.1 L/100 km.
At 4,660 mm in overall length with a 2,770 mm wheelbase, NEO offers a compact footprint that is practical for urban use while providing a genuinely spacious interior.
