Europestar (Chinese: 欧洲明星, pinyin: ōuzhōu míngxīng) is a Chinese automotive sub-brand of the British Lotus Group plc. The brand is the result of the joint-venture with the Chinese Jinhua Youngman Vehicle Co., Ltd.[1] The brand was also known as Qingnian Kuaile (青年快乐(莲花); qīngnián (liánhuā)) or English: Youngman (Lotus).
The vehicles are manufactured in the prefecture-level city of Jinhua. The brand name is only used for export models. The Chinese homeland units are branded as Lotus Cars (莲花汽车; liánhuā qìchē).
