Company history

In 2002 or 2003 Geely took over the Shanghai Jmster or Jmstar (Jiesida) Company from Shanghai and renamed it Shanghai Huapu (Maple) and Shanghai Maple Guorun Automobile . The brand name was Maple , possibly Huapu in Chinese , and was used until 2009, possibly 2010. A website that records registration numbers in China, however, carries the vehicles under the Geely brand with the addition of Maple, which indicates a sub-brand . The successor as a cheap brand of the Geely Group was Englon . On March 22, 2013, met with Zhejiang Kandi Vehicles establishing of Zhejiang Kandi Electric Vehicles Co. Ltd.

In the annual report of the Geely Group for 2019, the company is still listed as a sales company. The Maple brand is expected to be reintroduced in 2020.
