Diandong.com, operated by Beijing Electric State Technology Co., Ltd., is a specialized vertical media and one-stop service platform focused on new energy vehicles (NEVs). Founded in September 2014 by Cheng Li, who also co-founded Cheyun.com, the platform was established to provide professional guidance for consumers in the burgeoning NEV market. The company's goal is to serve as an informational envoy, helping users select and use NEVs by offering comprehensive content, including news, reviews, and detailed guides.
The platform covers a wide range of vehicles, including pure electric, extended-range electric, fuel cell, and various hybrid models. Diandong.com aims to educate the market and foster a community around electric vehicle adoption. In a move to address consumer concerns about vehicle performance, the company launched the EV Range Index (EVRI) in 2019, a testing system designed to provide realistic and transparent data on the driving range and charging capabilities of electric cars by simulating real-world usage scenarios.
The business generates revenue through advertising and other services offered on its platform. Diandong.com has successfully completed several funding rounds, including an Angel round from Bitauto Holdings in October 2014, a Pre-A round in October 2015, and a Series A round in February 2018 led by Nio Capital.
