Foxconn Showcases North American EV SUV and Advanced AI Infrastructure at Taiwan Expo USA in Dallas
Hon Hai Technology Group, better known globally as Foxconn (TWSE:2317), unveiled two of its most ambitious initiatives in the United States on Thursday: the North American-variant of its MODEL C electric SUV and its advanced artificial intelligence (AI) server infrastructure. Both technologies were presented during Taiwan Expo USA in Dallas, a major event designed to highlight Taiwan–U.S. industrial partnerships and technological collaborations that are shaping the future of global innovation.
A Dual Showcase: Electric Mobility and AI Infrastructure
Foxconn, the world’s largest electronics manufacturing company, used the event to spotlight its dual strengths—next-generation mobility solutions and state-of-the-art AI data center infrastructure. On display was the production-ready version of the North American MODEL C family SUV, a vehicle designed specifically for U.S. consumers, alongside the company’s high-performance AI server systems powered by NVIDIA’s GB300 NVL72, HGX, and MGX architectures. These servers are already being used by cloud service providers and hyperscalers to handle demanding workloads such as large language model training, AI inference, and scalable data processing.
The Dallas exhibition marked the first U.S. showcase of Foxconn’s EV SUV and only the second time the AI infrastructure has been presented publicly in America. By highlighting both mobility and computing capabilities, Foxconn signaled its determination to play a leading role in two of the most transformative technology domains of the coming decade.
Texas as a Strategic Hub
The company’s decision to introduce these innovations in Texas underscores the state’s growing importance as a technology and manufacturing hub in North America. Foxconn is emphasizing that its future growth strategy is not only about producing consumer products but also about building out critical infrastructure for AI and smart manufacturing, areas where Texas offers both an industrial base and a skilled workforce.
Foxconn Chief Product Officer Jerry Hsiao, who was invited to deliver the keynote address on the first day of the Expo, highlighted the company’s 40-year history in the United States. In a presentation titled “Intelligent Alliances: Driving the AI Era through Taiwan and the US,” Hsiao emphasized the role of collaboration in advancing next-generation industries. He explained how Foxconn leverages its U.S. presence to strengthen server manufacturing, EV development, and AI-driven applications.
“The US is a vital part of our footprint, enabling us to better serve the rapidly growing demand from our customers for AI and data solutions across the world,” Hsiao stated. He also underscored Foxconn’s substantial R&D investments in cooling technologies, energy efficiency, and modular server design—innovations that he said are essential to advancing the performance of AI infrastructure.
A Long-Term U.S. Commitment
Foxconn’s connection to the U.S. dates back to 1980, when it first expanded outside Taiwan. Today, the company operates more than 40 facilities across 12 states and employs over 6,500 people. This extensive footprint has enabled Foxconn to act as both a manufacturing powerhouse and a collaborative partner in driving technological advancement within the U.S. market.
AI Infrastructure: Powering the Next Era
At the Dallas event, Foxconn’s vertically integrated AI server system solutions were a focal point. First revealed earlier in 2025 at NVIDIA’s GTC conference, these systems are equipped with the NVIDIA GB300 NVL72, HGX, and MGX architectures, complemented by advanced liquid cooling and power management technologies. Together, these features allow Foxconn’s servers to deliver the efficiency, performance, and scalability required for modern AI applications—ranging from training large language models to supporting data-intensive cloud services.
By showcasing this infrastructure in Dallas, Foxconn emphasized its ability to bridge hardware innovation with the evolving needs of AI-driven enterprises and governments.
MODEL C: Designed for the North American Market
In parallel with its AI ambitions, Foxconn continues to advance its electric mobility business. The North American-variant of the MODEL C SUV has been tailored specifically to meet the expectations of U.S. drivers. Updates include an enlarged S-duct air deflector to improve aerodynamics, optimized side mirror shapes for reduced drag, Adaptive Driving Beam (ADB) technology for safer nighttime driving, and compliance with the North American Charging Standard (NACS).
Additionally, Foxconn collaborated with U.S.-based partners to refine the SUV’s user interface and user experience. By combining physical controls with touch interfaces, the company aims to strike a balance between modern convenience and intuitive operation, addressing both safety and driver comfort.
Smart Manufacturing and Smart City Solutions
Beyond EVs and AI, Foxconn also highlighted its broader innovation portfolio. Its smart manufacturing technologies integrate AI into production lines, allowing for improved efficiency, higher yields, and reduced operational risks. Meanwhile, its CityGPT platform—an initiative that blends generative AI with digital twin technologies—showcases how Foxconn is applying its expertise to urban solutions. From enhancing municipal transportation systems to improving city planning, CityGPT represents Foxconn’s commitment to supporting smarter, more sustainable urban development.
A Broader Vision
By combining its advances in electric vehicles, AI infrastructure, and smart city technologies, Foxconn is positioning itself not just as a manufacturer but as a global innovation partner. The company’s Dallas showcase at Taiwan Expo USA served as both a demonstration of capability and a statement of intent: Foxconn is ready to accelerate the industrial evolution of mobility, computing, and urban living in partnership with the United States.
