Quant Group Targets Supply of Up to 2,000 Robotic Solutions to Auto Showrooms by 2027
Key Facts
Quant Group announced on October 25, 2026, that its subsidiary, Siji (Beijing) Intelligent Technology Development, had signed a strategic cooperation, procurement framework and scenario preparation agreement with Qiojie (Beijing) Automotive. The parties signed the agreement on October 23, according to a Newtime Space report. The plan sets a cumulative cap of up to 2,000 integrated solutions by the end of 2027, with confirmation and delivery to take place in phases. However, the agreement is non-binding, and the planned quantities are indicative and do not require either party to deliver. The figures therefore represent a target scope for cooperation, not a confirmed order or a final supply commitment.
The solutions are intended for auto showrooms operated by Qiojie and combine physical AI robots, embedded software, preparation for automotive sales scenarios and supporting services. The design places robots within the showroom sales experience, alongside software and configurations tailored to the environment in which they will operate. Tasks include receiving and greeting customers, introducing car models and interacting with visitors. They also include collecting and distributing prospective customer data, linking showroom interactions to follow-up steps. The multiple components mean the proposed cooperation goes beyond supplying individual devices to a package that includes software configuration and services related to their use.
Supporting services include preparing knowledge bases, sales scripts and workflows, as well as systems integration, training, operational support and remote maintenance. These activities cover preparing the content the system uses to interact with customers and aligning workflows with showroom operations. Integration also requires connecting the solutions to relevant operating systems, while training, support and maintenance are intended to help sustain their use after setup. The report says, however, that commercial and implementation details will be determined later based on stores’ needs. Actual implementation will therefore depend on defining requirements at each site, as well as agreeing on the required equipment and services.
According to the report, the parties will later specify the models, equipment, software modules, after-sales services, delivery stores and prices in final purchase confirmations. Those confirmations will reflect stores’ needs, leaving the final configuration, distribution and commercial terms of the solutions for a later stage. The report gives no total price for the agreement, and the cap of 2,000 solutions alone does not determine the value of purchases or the number of units that will actually be ordered. The proposed supply remains phased, with details to be set out in final confirmations. This matters because the framework agreement defines the scope and ceiling of cooperation but does not yet settle what specific purchase orders will include.
The group’s board, according to the report, views the agreement as part of its “AI + consumer scenarios” strategy and an extension of the group’s capabilities. The board said it “does not represent a material change in the company’s principal business.” This characterization frames the project as an expansion of the group’s existing applications, rather than an announcement of a shift in its core business. It also limits the extent to which the agreement can be described as a material strategic change, despite the scale of the target ceiling and the variety of solution components. The report does not say the company described the agreement as a catalyst for a stock re-rating.
The cooperation is not assured; the report says the agreement may not lead to actual cooperation. The company said, according to the report, that it will issue further announcements upon signing definitive agreements or when material progress is made. Until then, the target of supplying up to 2,000 solutions remains subject to subsequent confirmations, while details on prices, models and delivery locations have not been announced. Any definitive agreements or announcement of material progress would clarify the scope and terms of implementation. The plan’s specified timeline is the end of 2027 as a target ceiling for supply, not a confirmed date for completing a binding order.
