Under this method of accounting, although JWAC is the public entity as the legal acquirer, it was treated as the “accounting acquiree”. And Chijet Motor as the legal acquiree, was treated as the acquirer for financial reporting purposes. This determination was primarily based on the following factors: (i) Chijet Motor’s shareholders have a majority of the voting power of the Company after the consummation of the Business Combination; (ii) Chijet Motor and its subsidiaries represent the ongoing operations and a majority of the governing body of the Company, and (iii) Chijet Motor’s senior management is comprised of the senior management of the Company. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the business combination was treated as the equivalent of Chijet Motor issuing stock for the net assets of JWAC, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of JWAC were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Business Combination were those of Chijet Motor and its subsidiaries. Accordingly, the consolidated assets, liabilities and results of operations prior to the reverse recapitalization were those of Chijet Motor and its subsidiaries, and JWAC’s assets, liabilities and results of operations were consolidated with the Company beginning on June 1, 2023. Share data have been retroactively restated by the Exchange Ratio to give effect to the reverse recapitalization. Upon the consummation of the reverse recapitalization, the assets and liabilities of JWAC were recognized at fair value. The fair value of cash and short-term liabilities acquired approximates their historical costs attributable to their short maturity. After the redemption of common stocks of JWAC before the closing of the business combination, the net assets acquired by the Company were in the amount of US$ 4,490 SCHEDULE OF CONSUMMATION OF REVERSE RECAPITALIZATION June 1, 2023 US$’000 Cash $ 13,680 Including repayment of extension note to Chijet Inc. (2,060 ) Accrued expenses (7,129 ) Bank charges (1 ) Net assets acquired by Chijet Motor as of June 1, 2023 $ 4,490 During the year ended December 31, 2023, the Company incurred approximately US$ 1.5 1.5 3.0 (c) History of the Company and Reorganization Prior to the incorporation of the Company and starting in April 2009, the business was carried out under Shandong Baoya and its subsidiaries. Shandong Baoya and its subsidiaries were controlled by a group of shareholders, individual and institutional, with voting agreements to vote consensually concerning operation and development matters. Prior to the business combination, Chijet Inc. completed a reorganization (the “Reorganization”) by June 2022, which involved the following steps: ● On July 6, 2021, Chijet Inc. was established under the laws of the Cayman Islands. ● On July 12, 2021, Baoya Technology Holdings Limited was incorporated in British Virgin Islands (“BVI”) as a wholly owned subsidiary of Chijet Inc. ● On July 28, 2021, Baoyaev Group Limited was incorporated in Hong Kong as a wholly owned subsidiary of Baoya Technology Holdings Limited. ● On October 21, 2021, Baoya New Energy (Shandong) Co., Ltd. (“WFOE”) was established in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) as a wholly owned subsidiary of Baoyaev Group Limited. By June 3, 2022, Chijet Inc. gradually acquired 85.172 (1) WFOE acquired 17.245% stake in Shandong Baoya from two shareholders through 53,879,310 As of December 31, 2023, subsidiaries of Chijet Motor include the following: SCHEDULE OF CONSOLIDATION OF SUBSIDIARIES Date of incorporation Place of incorporation Percentage of ownership Principal activities Subsidiaries Baoya New Energy (Shandong) Co., Ltd October 21, 2021 The PRC 100.00 % Investment holding Baoya New Energy Automobile Sale (Yantai) Co., Ltd.

The Company incurred net losses of US$ 98,501 111,518 62,552 434,226 40,017 The Company is evaluating strategies to continue as a going concern including a) developing and continuously promoting a systematic financing plan including third-party financing and capital issuance, and existing loans restructuring to meet the Company’s future liquidity needs; b) increasing market acceptance of the Company’s products to boost its sales volume to achieve economies of scale applying more effective marketing strategies including developing overseas markets, and cost control measures, in order to better manage operating cash flow position. However, given the uncertainty of global economies and financing markets, the Company may be unable to access further equity or debt financing when needed. As such, there is substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the financial statements are issued. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to the carrying amounts and classification of assets, liabilities, and reported expenses that may be necessary if the Company were unable to continue as a going concern. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES | 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (a) Basis of presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP to reflect the financial position and results of operations of the Company. Significant accounting policies followed by the Company in the preparation of its accompanying consolidated financial statements are summarized below. Emerging Growth Company Status The Company is an “emerging growth company”, as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used. (b) Principles of consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Chijet Motor and its subsidiaries. A subsidiary is an entity in which Chijet Motor, directly or indirectly, controls more than one half of the voting power (a) to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors (the “Board”), (b) to cast majority of votes at the meeting of the Board or to govern the financial and operating policies of the investee under a statute or agreement among the shareholders or equity holders. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. All inter-company transactions and balances between Chijet Motor and its subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation. (c) Use of estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements primarily include, but are not limited to, the fair value of the net assets of acquired subsidiaries, the determination of performance obligations, the determination of warranty cost, lower of cost and net realizable value of inventory, assessment for impairment of long-lived assets and intangible assets, recoverability of receivables as well as valuation of deferred tax assets, and other contingencies. Management bases the estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates. (d) Functional currency and foreign currency translation The Company’s reporting currency is the United States dollars (“US$”). The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries which is incorporated in places other than Chinese Mainland is United States dollars. The functional currencies of the other subsidiaries are their respective local currencies (“RMB”). The determination of the respective functional currency is based on the criteria set out by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 830, Foreign Currency Matters. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in foreign currency are measured using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The financial statements of Chijet’s entities of which the functional currency is not US$ are translated from their respective functional currency into US$. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into US$ at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Equity accounts other than earnings generated in current period are translated into US$ at the appropriate historical rates. Income and expense items are translated into US$ using the periodic average exchange rates. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded in other comprehensive income or loss in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, and the accumulated currency translation adjustments are presented as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss in the consolidated statements of changes in shareholders’ equity (deficit). (e) Fair value of financial instruments Fair value is the price we would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability (exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be either recorded or disclosed at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact, and it also considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. The Company applies a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. This guidance specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques, which is based on whether the inputs into the valuation technique are observable or unobservable. The hierarchy is as follows: Level I — Valuation techniques in which all significant inputs are unadjusted quoted prices from active markets for assets or liabilities that are identical to the assets or liabilities being measured. Level II — Valuation techniques in which significant inputs include quoted prices from active markets for assets or liabilities that are similar to the assets or liabilities being measured and/or quoted prices for assets or liabilities that are identical or similar to the assets or liabilities being measured from markets that are not active. Also, model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets are Level II valuation techniques. Level III — Valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. Unobservable inputs are valuation technique inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The fair value guidance describes three main approaches to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities: (1) market approach; (2) income approach and (3) cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated from market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount. The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. The cost approach is based on the amount that would currently be required to replace an asset. When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine the fair value of an asset or liability. If quoted market prices are not available, the Company will measure fair value using valuation techniques that use, when possible, current market-based or independently sourced market parameters, such as interest rates and currency rates. Financial assets and liabilities of the Company primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts and notes receivable, amounts due from related parties, accounts and notes payable, loans attributable to related parties, promissory note payable, accruals and other current liabilities, long-term payables. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the carrying values of these financial instruments approximated to their respective fair values. (f) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of cash and demand deposits which are highly liquid. The Company considers highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and with original maturities from the date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. All cash and cash equivalents are unrestricted as to withdrawal and use. (g) Restricted cash Restricted cash represents (a) the cash frozen relating to the court order; (b) the deposits held in designated bank accounts for security of the repayment of the notes payable. The restricted cash attributable to the court order primarily resulted from the legal proceeding related to the contract dispute. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the restricted cash amounted to approximate US$ 1,378 12,105 The restricted cash is presented separately on the consolidated balance sheets as follows: SCHEDULE OF RESTRICTED CASH December 31, 2023 December 31, US$’000 US$’000 Frozen amount 1,378 1,463 Security amount - 10,642 Total restricted cash 1,378 12,105 (h) Current expected credit losses On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”), using the modified retrospective transition method. The Company’s accounts and notes receivable, amounts due from related parties and other current assets are within the scope of ASC Topic 326. In establishing the required allowance, management considers historical losses adjusted to take into account current market conditions and the Company’s customers’ financial condition, the amount of receivables in dispute, and the current receivables aging and current payment patterns. The Company estimates allowance for credit losses for the anticipation of future economic condition and credit risk indicators of customers. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance. In the event the Company recovers amounts previously reserved for, the Company will reduce the specific allowance for credit losses. The cumulative effect from the adoption as of January 1, 2023 was immaterial to the consolidated financial statements. The following table summarizes the activity in the allowance for expected credit loss of other current assets for the year ended December 31, 2023. SCHEDULE OF ALLOWANCE FOR EXPECTED CREDIT LOSS For the Year Ended December 31, 2023 US$’000 Balance as of December 31, 2022 - Adoption of ASC Topic 326 73 Balance as of January 1, 2023 73 Balance 73 Current period provision 56 Write-offs - Balance as of December 31, 2023 129 Balance 129 (i) Inventory Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is calculated on the weighted average basis and includes all costs to acquire and other costs to bring the inventories to their present location and condition. The Company records inventory write-downs for excess or obsolete inventories based upon assumptions on current and future demand forecasts. If the inventory on hand is in excess of future demand forecast, the excess amounts are written off. The Company also reviews inventory to determine whether its carrying value exceeds the net amount realizable upon the ultimate sale of the inventory. This requires the determination of the estimated selling price of the vehicles less the estimated cost to convert inventory on hand into a finished product. Once inventory is written-down, a new, lower-cost basis for that inventory is established and subsequent changes in facts and circumstances do not result in the restoration or increase in that newly established cost basis. (j) Property, plant and equipment, net Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any. Property, plant and equipment are depreciated primarily using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset. Salvage value rate is determined to 0 5 SCHEDULE OF ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE Estimated useful lives Buildings 20 Machinery and equipment 3 25 Vehicles 4 5 Computer and electronic equipment 2 5 Mold and tooling 1 13 The cost of maintenance and repairs is expensed as incurred, whereas the cost of renewals and betterment that extends the useful lives of property, plant and equipment is capitalized as additions to the related assets. Construction in progress represents property, plant and equipment under construction and pending installation and is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any. Completed assets are transferred to their respective asset classes and depreciation begins when an asset is ready for its intended use. Interest expense on outstanding debt is capitalized during the period of significant capital asset construction. Capitalized interest expense on construction-in-progress is included within property, plant and equipment and is amortized over the life of the related assets. The gain or loss on the disposal of property, plant and equipment is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the relevant assets and is recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss. The gain on the disposal of property was approximate US$ 287 13 11 (k) Intangible assets, net Intangible assets mainly consist of computer software, patent, trademark and manufacturing license. Intangible assets with finite lives are carried at acquisition cost less accumulated amortization and impairment, if any. Finite lived intangible assets are tested for impairment if impairment indicators arise. Amortization of intangible assets with finite lives are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives as below: SCHEDULE OF AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS Estimated useful lives Patent 5 10 Computer software 2 10 The estimated useful lives of intangible assets with finite lives are reassessed if circumstances occur that indicate the original estimated useful lives have changed. Intangible assets that have indefinite useful life are automotive manufacturing permission and trademark as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company evaluates indefinite-lived intangible assets each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support indefinite useful lives. The value of indefinite-lived intangible assets is not amortized, but tested for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of the assets may not be recoverable. As such, no (l) Land use rights, net Land use rights represent lease prepayments to the local government authorities. Upon the adoption of ASC 842, Leases (m) Long-term investments Long-term investments are comprised of investment in Jilin FAW Baosteel Auto Steel Parts Co., Ltd. (“Baosteel”) amounting to approximate US$ 3,699 4,370 30 20 The Company uses the equity method of accounting for its investment in, and earning or loss of, the companies that it does not control but over which it has ability to exercise significant influence in accordance with ASC topic 323, Investment—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (“ASC 323”). Under the equity method, the Company initially records its investment at cost and is included in the long-term investments on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company subsequently adjusts the carrying amount of the investment to recognize the Company’s proportionate share of each equity investee’s net income or loss into earnings after the date of investment. If an equity investment no longer qualifies to be accounted for under the equity method, the investment’s initial basis for which subsequent changes in value are measured should be the previous carrying amount of the investment. The Company periodically reviews its equity investment for impairment. Under the equity method of accounting, an impairment loss would be recorded whenever the fair value of an equity investment is determined to be below its carrying value. The Company considers whether the fair value of its equity method investment has declined below its carrying value whenever adverse events or changes in circumstances indicate that recorded value may not be recoverable. An impairment charge would be recorded when the decline in value is determined to be other-than-temporary. There was no impairment loss of long-term investment during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. (n) Goodwill Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred, the amount recognized for non-controlling interests and any fair value of the Company’s previously held equity interests in the acquiree over the identifiable net assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If the sum of this consideration and other items is lower than the fair value of the net assets acquired, the difference is, after reassessment, recognized in profit or loss as a gain on bargain purchase. The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04, Intangible – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. After adopting this guidance, the Company performs the quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill is not considered to be impaired. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value is recognized as impairment. Application of a goodwill impairment test requires significant management judgment, including the identification of reporting units, allocation of assets, liabilities and goodwill to reporting units, and determination of the fair value of each reporting unit. (o) Impairment of long-lived assets Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (such as a significant adverse change to market conditions that will affect the future use of the assets) indicate that the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable or that the useful life is shorter than the Company had originally estimated. When these events occur, the Company firstly determine the unit of account for testing long-lived assets, and then identify the indicators of impairment. When indicators of impairment present, the company must then proceed to recoverability test. Recoverability test evaluates the impairment by comparing carrying value of the assets to an estimate of future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying value of the assets over the fair value of the assets. Fair value is determined using anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. Impairment charges recognized for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 was US$ 283 842 6,054 (p) Warranties The Company provides a manufacturer’s standard warranty on all vehicles sold. The Company accrues a warranty reserve for the vehicles sold by the Company, which includes the Company’s best estimate of the projected costs to repair or replace items under warranties and recalls when identified. These estimates are based on actual claims incurred to date and an estimate of the nature, frequency and costs of future claims. Changes to the Company’s historical or projected warranty experience may cause material changes to the warranty reserve in the future. The portion of the warranty reserve expected to be incurred within the next 12 months is included within accruals and other liabilities, while the remaining balance is included within other non-current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Warranty expense is recorded as a component of cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company reevaluates the adequacy of the warranty accrual on a regular basis. The Company considers the standard warranty is not providing incremental service to customers rather an assurance to the quality of the vehicle, and therefore is not a separate performance obligation and should be accounted for in accordance with ASC 460, Guarantees. Accrued warranty is included in other liabilities and the movement of accrued warranty is as following: SCHEDULE OF ACCRUED WARRANTY December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 US$’000 US$’000 US$’000 Accrued warranty - beginning of year 319 290 1,202 Warranty costs incurred (106 ) (89 ) (989 ) Provision for warranty - 86 131 Translation adjustment (9 ) 32 (54 ) Accrued warranty - end of year 204 319 290 (q) Revenue recognition Revenue is recognized when or as the control of the goods or services is transferred upon delivery to customers. Depending on the terms of the contract and the laws that apply to the contract, control of the goods and services may be transferred over time or at a point in time. Control of the goods and services is transferred over time if our performance: ● provides all of the benefits received and consumed simultaneously by the customer; ● creates and enhances an asset that the customer controls as the Company performs; or ● does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Company and the Company have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. If control of the goods and services transfers over time, revenue is recognized over the period of the contract by reference to the progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation. Otherwise, revenue is recognized at a point in time when the customer obtains control of goods and services. Contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. For such arrangements, the Company allocates overall contract price to each distinct performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers For new Master Service Agreements (“MSA”) or for Purchase Orders (“PO”) from new customers, a credit check is required, which establishes collectability of the considerations to which the Company expects to be entitled. Management also has controls in place for the review of credit limits with existing customers. Other considerations in determining collectability include the customer’s payment history, prior or existing customer disputes, if any, and market conditions. When either party to a contract has performed, the Company presents the contract in the consolidated balance sheets as a contract asset or a contract liability, depending on the relationship between the entity’s performance and the customer’s payment. A receivable is recorded when the Company has an unconditional right to consideration. A right to consideration is unconditional if only the passage of time is required before payment of that consideration is due. If a customer pays consideration or the Company has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional, before the Company transfers a good or service to the customer, the Company presents the contract liability when the payment is made or a receivable is recorded, whichever is earlier. A contract liability is the Company’s obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration, or an amount of consideration is due, from the customer. The Company’s contract liabilities are primarily resulted from the performance obligation identified in the vehicle sales contract, which is recorded as deferred revenue and revenue will be recognized when future goods or services are transferred. Besides, amounts received on behalf of third parties are recorded as other current liabilities. Vehicle Sales Vehicle sales revenue includes revenues related to deliveries of new vehicles under the definition of a performance obligation under ASC 606. The Company recognizes revenue on vehicle sales upon delivery to the customer, which is when the control of a vehicle transfers. For the obligations related to the vehicle sales, the Company estimates the standalone selling price by considering costs used to develop and deliver the service, third-party pricing of similar options and other information that may be available. The Company provides a manufacturer’s limited warranty on all new vehicles sold to the customers, ensuring that the vehicles comply with agreed-upon specifications. As the manufacturer’s limited warranty is not separately sold to the customers, the Company does not consider the warranty as a separate performance obligation under the ASC 606-10-55-31. Sales of vehicle parts and accessories The Company recognizes revenue upon transfer of control to the customer which occurs at a point in time. When the Company performs shipping and handling activities after the transfer of control to the customer, they are considered as fulfillment activities, and accordingly, the costs are accrued for when the related revenue is recognized. Practical expedients and exemptions The Company follows the guidance on immaterial promises when identifying performance obligations in the vehicle sales contracts and concludes that labor related to assurance-type warranties is not a performance obligation considering this service is value-added service to enhance customer experience rather than critical items for vehicle driving and forecasted that usage of this service will be very limited. The Company also performs an estimation on the stand-alone fair value of the promise applying a cost-plus margin approach and concludes that the standalone fair value of foresaid service is insignificant, representing less than 5% of vehicle gross selling price and aggregate fair value of each individual promise. Revenue consists of the following: SCHEDULE OF REVENUE Related Parties Third Parties Related Parties Third Parties Related Parties Third Parties For the year ended December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 US$’000 US$’000 US$’000 Related Parties Third Parties Related Parties Third Parties Related Parties Third Parties Vehicle sales $ 713 $ 6,967 $ 3,722 $ 7,908 $ 6,887 $ 5,395 Sales of vehicle parts and accessories $ 1,690 $ 113 $ 3,086 $ 145 $ 8,393 $ 1,528 Others $ - $ - $ 100 $ - $ 3 $ 97 Total revenues 2,403 7,080 6,908 8,053 15,283 7,020 All of the property and equipment of the Company are physically located in the PRC. The geographical location of customers is based on the location at which the customers operate and all of the Company’s revenue is derived from operations in the PRC for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. (r) Cost of revenues Cost of revenue includes direct parts, material, labor cost and manufacturing overhead (including depreciation of assets associated with the production) and reserves for estimated warranty cost. Cost of revenue also includes charges to write-down the carrying value of the inventories when it exceeds its estimated net realizable value and to provide for on-hand inventories that are either obsolete or in excess of forecasted demand.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract] | |
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT | 3. RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENT Recently adopted accounting pronouncements In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326), Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, and issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance within ASU 2018-19, ASU 2019-04, ASU 2019-05, ASU 2019-11 and ASU 2020-02, collectively referred to as “ASC 326”. ASC 326 requires a financial asset (or a group of financial assets) measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset(s) to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected on the financial asset. The measurement of expected credit losses is based on relevant information about past events, including historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. This ASU eliminates the probable initial recognition threshold in current GAAP and, instead, reflects an entity’s current estimate of all expected credit losses. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-10 to postpone the effective date of ASU No. 2016-13 for certain to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted this ASU within annual reporting period on January 1, 2023. There were no significant impact resulting from these disclosures on the consolidated financial statements. In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU No. 2021-08, Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (Topic 805). This ASU requires an acquirer in a business combination to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities (deferred revenue) from acquired contracts using the revenue recognition guidance in Topic 606. At the acquisition date, the acquirer applies the revenue model as if it had originated the acquired contracts. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption of the ASU should be applied prospectively. Early adoption is also permitted, including adoption in an interim period. If early adopted, the amendments are applied retrospectively to all business combinations for which the acquisition date occurred during the fiscal year of adoption. The Company adopted this ASU within annual reporting period on January 1, 2023. There were no significant impact resulting from these disclosures on the consolidated financial statements. In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-02, Troubled Debt Restructuring and Vintage Disclosures. This ASU eliminates the accounting guidance for troubled debt restructurings by creditors that have adopted ASU 2016-03, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. This ASU also enhances the disclosure requirements for certain loan refinancing and restructurings by creditors when a borrower is experiencing financial difficulty. In addition, the ASU amends the guidance on vintage disclosures to require entities to disclose current period gross write-offs by year of origination for financing receivables and net investments in leases within the scope of ASC 326-20. The ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. Adoption of the ASU would be applied prospectively. Early adoption is also permitted, including adoption in an interim period. The Company adopted this ASU within annual reporting period on January 1, 2023. There were no significant impact resulting from these disclosures on the consolidated financial statements. Recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted In December 2022, the FASB issued ASU No. 2022-06, Deferral of the Sunset Date of Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) (ASU 2022-06). ASU 2022-06 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to transactions affected by reference rate (e.g., LIBOR) reform if certain criteria are met, for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. ASU 2022-06 deferred the sunset date of Topic 848 from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2024. ASU 2022-06 is effective as of December 21, 2022 through December 31, 2024. The Company will adopt this ASU within annual reporting period of January 1, 2024 and expects that the adoption will not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In October 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-06, Disclosure Improvements – Codification Amendments in Response to the SEC’s Disclosure Update and Simplification Initiative. The ASU modifies the disclosure or presentation requirements of a variety of Topics in the Codification to align with the SEC’s regulations. The ASU also makes those requirements applicable to entities that were not previously subject to the SEC’s requirements. The ASU is effective for the Company two years after the effective date to remove the related disclosure from Regulation S-X or S-K. As of the date these financial statements have been made available for issuance, the SEC has not yet removed any related disclosure. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2023-06 to have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements. In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280)-Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. ASU No. 2023-07 requires an enhanced disclosure of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the CODM and included within each reported measure of segment profit or loss, on an annual and interim basis. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Adoption of this guidance should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect to adopt ASU No. 2023-07 early and is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this standard on its consolidated financial statements. In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The ASU requires the annual financial statements to include consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation, and income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. ASU 2023-09 is effective for the Company’s annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2025. Adoption is either with a prospective method or a fully retrospective method of transition. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the effect that adoption of ASU 2023-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements. |

Risks and Uncertainties [Abstract] | |
CONCENTRATION OF RISK | 4. CONCENTRATION OF RISK (a) Credit risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to a concentration of credit risk consist of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts and notes receivable, and accounts and notes payable. The maximum exposure of such financial instruments to credit risk is their carrying amounts as of the balance sheet dates. As of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, substantially all of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash were placed within the PRC. Management chooses these institutions because of their reputations and track records for stability, and their known large cash reserves, and management periodically reviews these institutions’ reputations, track records, and reported reserves. Management expects that any additional institutions that the Company uses for its cash and bank deposits would be chosen with similar criteria for soundness. Bank failure is uncommon in PRC and the Company believes that those Chinese banks that hold the Company’s cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are financially sound based on publicly available information. For the credit risk related to accounts and notes receivable, the Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and, if necessary, maintains reserves for potential credit losses. (b) Customer risk As of December 31, 2023, one customer, determined as a related party under ASC 850, accounted for 12 19 As of December 31, 2022, three customers, were determined as related parties under ASC 850, accounted for more than 10% of total accounts and notes receivable at 69 19 10 During the year ended December 31, 2023, one third-party customer accounted for 22 During the year ended December 31, 2022, four customers accounted for more than 10% of total revenue at 13 12 12 11 37 During the year ended December 31, 2021, one customer was determined as related parties under ASC 850 accounted for 35 (c) Foreign currency exchange rate risk The revenues and expenses of the Company’s entities in the PRC are generally denominated in RMB and their assets and liabilities are denominated in RMB. The Company’s overseas financing activities are denominated in U.S. dollars. The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. Remittances of foreign currencies into the PRC or remittances of RMB out of the PRC as well as exchange between RMB and foreign currencies require approval by foreign exchange administrative authorities and certain supporting documentation. The State Administration for Foreign Exchange, under the authority of the People’s Bank of China, controls the conversion of RMB into other currencies. |

Retirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
ACCRUED POST-EMPLOYMENT AND TERMINATION BENEFITS | 19. ACCRUED POST-EMPLOYMENT AND TERMINATION BENEFITS The Company paid post-employment obligations to its retired employees. In addition, the Company was committed to make periodic benefits payments to certain former employees, who were terminated or early retired. These benefits were only applicable to the qualifying employees. The Company has three defined benefit, non-contributory retirement or termination plans that cover qualifying employees. These defined benefit plans provide benefits to covered individuals satisfying certain age and/or service requirements. The three benefit plans are as follows: (i) Plan 1: Post-employment benefits for participants in 2019 restructure; (ii) Plan 2: Termination benefits for participants in 2019 restructure; (iii) Plan 3: Post-employment benefits for participants granted after 2019; For the year ended December 31, 2022, there were some changes occurred in Plan 1. And for the year ended December 31, 2023, additional changes were occurred in Plan 1 and Plan 3. The above changes have been accounted for past service cost and amortized during the average future lifetime or service period of corresponding members under guidance of ASC 715. Details of the movements of the defined benefit plans during the year are presented below. The Company’s net obligation in respect to defined benefit retirement plans is calculated separately for each plan by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees have earned in return for their service in the current and prior periods; that benefit is discounted to determine the present value and the fair value of any plan assets is deducted. The actuarial valuation of the present value of the defined benefit obligations as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022 were prepared by an independent firm of actuaries, a member of China Association of Actuaries. In accordance with ASC 715-30, Benefit Plans-Pension, the following components have been included in the net obligation recognized for a period by the Company: (i) service cost; (ii) interest cost; (iii) expected return on plan assets, if any; (iv) amortization of any prior service cost or credit included in accumulated other comprehensive income; and (v) gain or loss (including the effects of changes in financial assumptions), which includes, to the extent recognized, amortization of the net gain or loss included in accumulated other comprehensive income. The present value of the defined benefit obligations, and the related service costs were measured using the projected unit credit method. The principal assumptions used for the purposes of the actuarial valuations are as follows: SCHEDULE OF ASSUMPTIONS USED FOR ACTUARIAL VALUATIONS December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 Discount rate 2.25 2.75 2.50 3.25 Mortality rate (2010-2013) - CL5/CL6 up 2 years Annual withdrawal rate 3.00 % 3.00 % Annual increase rate of supplemental medical benefits 6.00 % 6.00 % Annual increase rate of social insurance, housing fund and EAP 8.00 % 8.00 % * China Life Insurance Mortality Table (2010-2013) Movements in the present value of the retirement and supplemental benefit obligations during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 are as follows: SCHEDULE OF RETIREMENT AND SUPPLEMENTAL BENEFIT OBLIGATIONS For the year ended December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 US$’000 US$’000 US$’000 Beginning of period 60,913 74,794 80,734 Service costs 65 65 60 Interest costs 1,353 1,663 2,202 Benefits paid (9,475 ) (10,606 ) (11,849 ) Actuarial loss arising from changes in financial assumptions 790 343 1,523 Past service costs 413 341 - Translation adjustment (1,709 ) (5,687 ) 2,124 End of period 52,350 60,913 74,794 The amount of retirement and supplemental benefit obligations recognized in the consolidated balance sheets are determined as follows: SCHEDULE OF RETIREMENT AND SUPPLEMENTAL BENEFIT OBLIGATION IN CONSOLIDATED BALANCE SHEET December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 US$’000 US$’000 End of period 52,350 60,913 Less: net amount due within one year (8,809 ) (9,338 ) Net amount due after one year 43,541 51,575 As of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the non-current liabilities were US$ 43,541 51,575 As of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the current portion of the accrued post-employment and termination benefits were US$ 8,809 9,338 The following amounts were recorded in the consolidated statements of operations as components of the net periodic benefit cost: SCHEDULE OF CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS COMPONENTS For the year ended December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 US$’000 US$’000 US$’000 Service costs 65 65 60 Interest costs 1,353 1,663 2,202 Amortization of actuarial losses 3 1 - Amortization of past service cost 27 27 - Net periodic benefit cost 1,448 1,756 2,262 The following amounts were recorded in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss: SCHEDULE OF AMOUNTS RECORDED IN CONSOLIDATED STATEMENTS OF COMPREHENSIVE LOSS For the year ended December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 US$’000 US$’000 US$’000 Actuarial loss arising from changes in financial assumptions 833 254 888 Past service costs 413 341 - Amortization recognized in net period benefit cost (30 ) (28 ) - Total 1,216 567 888 During the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Company made cash payments of US$ 9,475 67,030 10,606 71,450 11,849 76,460 SCHEDULE OF DEFINED BENEFIT EXPECTED US$’000 2024 8,809 2025 7,999 2026 7,276 2027 6,340 2028 5,463 Total 35,887 |

Condensed Financial Information Disclosure [Abstract] | |
CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE PARENT COMPANY | 25. CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF THE PARENT COMPANY Pursuant to the requirements of Rule 12-04(a), 5-04(c) and 4-08(e)(3) of Regulation S-X, the condensed financial information of the parent company shall be filed when the restricted net assets of consolidated subsidiaries exceed 25 percent of consolidated net assets as of the end of the most recently completed fiscal year. The Company performed a test on the restricted net assets of consolidated subsidiaries in accordance with such requirement and concluded that it was applicable to the Company as the restricted net assets of the Company’s PRC subsidiary exceeded 25% of the consolidated net assets of the Company, therefore, the condensed financial statements for the parent company are included herein. For purposes of the above test, restricted net assets of consolidated subsidiaries shall mean that amount of the Company’s proportionate share of net assets of consolidated subsidiaries (after intercompany eliminations) which as of the end of the most recent fiscal year may not be transferred to the parent company by subsidiaries in the form of loans, advances or cash dividends without the consent of a third party. The condensed financial information of the parent company has been prepared using the same accounting policies as set out in the Company’s consolidated financial statements except that the parent company used the equity method to account for investment in its subsidiaries. For the parent company, the Company records its investments in subsidiaries under the equity method of accounting as prescribed in ASC 323, Investments – Equity Method and Joint Ventures. Such investment is presented on the condensed balance sheets as “Investment in subsidiaries” and the respective profit or loss as “Equity in earnings of subsidiaries” on the condensed statements of operations. The Company did not pay any dividend for the periods presented. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, there were no material contingencies, significant provisions for long-term obligations, or guarantees of the Company, except for those which have been separately disclosed in the consolidated financial statements, if any. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the parent company’s share of losses of an investee exceeds the carrying amount of an investment accounted for by the equity method. As a result, the parent company discontinued applying the equity method in accordance with ASC 323-10-35-20. On June 1, 2023, the Company consummated the business combination and Chijet Motor has become the parent company of Chijet (Note 1(b)). The condensed financial information for the year ended December 31, 2023 was prepared with Chijet Motor as the parent company. And for the years ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, the condensed financial information was prepared with Chijet Inc., as the parent company.

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUN_2
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies) | 12 Months Ended |
Dec. 31, 2023 | |
Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of presentation | (a) Basis of presentation The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP to reflect the financial position and results of operations of the Company. Significant accounting policies followed by the Company in the preparation of its accompanying consolidated financial statements are summarized below. Emerging Growth Company Status The Company is an “emerging growth company”, as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the “Securities Act”), as modified by the Jumpstart our Business Startups Act of 2012, (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used. |
Principles of consolidation | (b) Principles of consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of Chijet Motor and its subsidiaries. A subsidiary is an entity in which Chijet Motor, directly or indirectly, controls more than one half of the voting power (a) to appoint or remove the majority of the members of the board of directors (the “Board”), (b) to cast majority of votes at the meeting of the Board or to govern the financial and operating policies of the investee under a statute or agreement among the shareholders or equity holders. The financial statements of subsidiaries are included in the consolidated financial statements from the date that control commences until the date that control ceases. All inter-company transactions and balances between Chijet Motor and its subsidiaries have been eliminated in consolidation. |
Use of estimates | (c) Use of estimates The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Significant accounting estimates reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements primarily include, but are not limited to, the fair value of the net assets of acquired subsidiaries, the determination of performance obligations, the determination of warranty cost, lower of cost and net realizable value of inventory, assessment for impairment of long-lived assets and intangible assets, recoverability of receivables as well as valuation of deferred tax assets, and other contingencies. Management bases the estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from these estimates. |
Functional currency and foreign currency translation | (d) Functional currency and foreign currency translation The Company’s reporting currency is the United States dollars (“US$”). The functional currency of the Company and its subsidiaries which is incorporated in places other than Chinese Mainland is United States dollars. The functional currencies of the other subsidiaries are their respective local currencies (“RMB”). The determination of the respective functional currency is based on the criteria set out by Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 830, Foreign Currency Matters. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the exchange rates prevailing at the transaction dates. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in foreign currency are measured using the exchange rates at the dates of the initial transactions. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss. The financial statements of Chijet’s entities of which the functional currency is not US$ are translated from their respective functional currency into US$. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into US$ at the exchange rates at the balance sheet date. Equity accounts other than earnings generated in current period are translated into US$ at the appropriate historical rates. Income and expense items are translated into US$ using the periodic average exchange rates. The resulting foreign currency translation adjustments are recorded in other comprehensive income or loss in the consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, and the accumulated currency translation adjustments are presented as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss in the consolidated statements of changes in shareholders’ equity (deficit). |
Fair value of financial instruments | (e) Fair value of financial instruments Fair value is the price we would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability (exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. When determining the fair value measurements for assets and liabilities required or permitted to be either recorded or disclosed at fair value, the Company considers the principal or most advantageous market in which it would transact, and it also considers assumptions that market participants would use when pricing the asset or liability. The Company applies a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. This guidance specifies a hierarchy of valuation techniques, which is based on whether the inputs into the valuation technique are observable or unobservable. The hierarchy is as follows: Level I — Valuation techniques in which all significant inputs are unadjusted quoted prices from active markets for assets or liabilities that are identical to the assets or liabilities being measured. Level II — Valuation techniques in which significant inputs include quoted prices from active markets for assets or liabilities that are similar to the assets or liabilities being measured and/or quoted prices for assets or liabilities that are identical or similar to the assets or liabilities being measured from markets that are not active. Also, model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets are Level II valuation techniques. Level III — Valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable. Unobservable inputs are valuation technique inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability. The fair value guidance describes three main approaches to measure the fair value of assets and liabilities: (1) market approach; (2) income approach and (3) cost approach. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated from market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present value amount. The measurement is based on the value indicated by current market expectations about those future amounts. The cost approach is based on the amount that would currently be required to replace an asset. When available, the Company uses quoted market prices to determine the fair value of an asset or liability. If quoted market prices are not available, the Company will measure fair value using valuation techniques that use, when possible, current market-based or independently sourced market parameters, such as interest rates and currency rates. Financial assets and liabilities of the Company primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts and notes receivable, amounts due from related parties, accounts and notes payable, loans attributable to related parties, promissory note payable, accruals and other current liabilities, long-term payables. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the carrying values of these financial instruments approximated to their respective fair values. |
Cash and cash equivalents | (f) Cash and cash equivalents Cash and cash equivalents primarily consist of cash and demand deposits which are highly liquid. The Company considers highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to known amounts of cash and with original maturities from the date of purchase of three months or less to be cash equivalents. All cash and cash equivalents are unrestricted as to withdrawal and use. |
Restricted cash | (g) Restricted cash Restricted cash represents (a) the cash frozen relating to the court order; (b) the deposits held in designated bank accounts for security of the repayment of the notes payable. The restricted cash attributable to the court order primarily resulted from the legal proceeding related to the contract dispute. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the restricted cash amounted to approximate US$ 1,378 12,105 The restricted cash is presented separately on the consolidated balance sheets as follows: SCHEDULE OF RESTRICTED CASH December 31, 2023 December 31, US$’000 US$’000 Frozen amount 1,378 1,463 Security amount - 10,642 Total restricted cash 1,378 12,105 |
Current expected credit losses | (h) Current expected credit losses On January 1, 2023, the Company adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments” (“ASU 2016-13”), using the modified retrospective transition method. The Company’s accounts and notes receivable, amounts due from related parties and other current assets are within the scope of ASC Topic 326. In establishing the required allowance, management considers historical losses adjusted to take into account current market conditions and the Company’s customers’ financial condition, the amount of receivables in dispute, and the current receivables aging and current payment patterns. The Company estimates allowance for credit losses for the anticipation of future economic condition and credit risk indicators of customers. After all attempts to collect a receivable have failed, the receivable is written off against the allowance. In the event the Company recovers amounts previously reserved for, the Company will reduce the specific allowance for credit losses. The cumulative effect from the adoption as of January 1, 2023 was immaterial to the consolidated financial statements. The following table summarizes the activity in the allowance for expected credit loss of other current assets for the year ended December 31, 2023. SCHEDULE OF ALLOWANCE FOR EXPECTED CREDIT LOSS For the Year Ended December 31, 2023 US$’000 Balance as of December 31, 2022 - Adoption of ASC Topic 326 73 Balance as of January 1, 2023 73 Balance 73 Current period provision 56 Write-offs - Balance as of December 31, 2023 129 Balance 129 |
Inventory | (i) Inventory Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is calculated on the weighted average basis and includes all costs to acquire and other costs to bring the inventories to their present location and condition. The Company records inventory write-downs for excess or obsolete inventories based upon assumptions on current and future demand forecasts. If the inventory on hand is in excess of future demand forecast, the excess amounts are written off. The Company also reviews inventory to determine whether its carrying value exceeds the net amount realizable upon the ultimate sale of the inventory. This requires the determination of the estimated selling price of the vehicles less the estimated cost to convert inventory on hand into a finished product. Once inventory is written-down, a new, lower-cost basis for that inventory is established and subsequent changes in facts and circumstances do not result in the restoration or increase in that newly established cost basis. |
Property, plant and equipment, net | (j) Property, plant and equipment, net Property, plant and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and impairment loss, if any. Property, plant and equipment are depreciated primarily using the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the asset. Salvage value rate is determined to 0 5 SCHEDULE OF ESTIMATED USEFUL LIFE Estimated useful lives Buildings 20 Machinery and equipment 3 25 Vehicles 4 5 Computer and electronic equipment 2 5 Mold and tooling 1 13 The cost of maintenance and repairs is expensed as incurred, whereas the cost of renewals and betterment that extends the useful lives of property, plant and equipment is capitalized as additions to the related assets. Construction in progress represents property, plant and equipment under construction and pending installation and is stated at cost less accumulated impairment losses, if any. Completed assets are transferred to their respective asset classes and depreciation begins when an asset is ready for its intended use. Interest expense on outstanding debt is capitalized during the period of significant capital asset construction. Capitalized interest expense on construction-in-progress is included within property, plant and equipment and is amortized over the life of the related assets. The gain or loss on the disposal of property, plant and equipment is the difference between the net sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the relevant assets and is recognized in the consolidated statement of comprehensive loss. The gain on the disposal of property was approximate US$ 287 13 11 |
Intangible assets, net | (k) Intangible assets, net Intangible assets mainly consist of computer software, patent, trademark and manufacturing license. Intangible assets with finite lives are carried at acquisition cost less accumulated amortization and impairment, if any. Finite lived intangible assets are tested for impairment if impairment indicators arise. Amortization of intangible assets with finite lives are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives as below: SCHEDULE OF AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLE ASSETS Estimated useful lives Patent 5 10 Computer software 2 10 The estimated useful lives of intangible assets with finite lives are reassessed if circumstances occur that indicate the original estimated useful lives have changed. Intangible assets that have indefinite useful life are automotive manufacturing permission and trademark as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022. The Company evaluates indefinite-lived intangible assets each reporting period to determine whether events and circumstances continue to support indefinite useful lives.

Long-term investments | (m) Long-term investments Long-term investments are comprised of investment in Jilin FAW Baosteel Auto Steel Parts Co., Ltd. (“Baosteel”) amounting to approximate US$ 3,699 4,370 30 20 The Company uses the equity method of accounting for its investment in, and earning or loss of, the companies that it does not control but over which it has ability to exercise significant influence in accordance with ASC topic 323, Investment—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (“ASC 323”). Under the equity method, the Company initially records its investment at cost and is included in the long-term investments on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company subsequently adjusts the carrying amount of the investment to recognize the Company’s proportionate share of each equity investee’s net income or loss into earnings after the date of investment. If an equity investment no longer qualifies to be accounted for under the equity method, the investment’s initial basis for which subsequent changes in value are measured should be the previous carrying amount of the investment. The Company periodically reviews its equity investment for impairment. Under the equity method of accounting, an impairment loss would be recorded whenever the fair value of an equity investment is determined to be below its carrying value. The Company considers whether the fair value of its equity method investment has declined below its carrying value whenever adverse events or changes in circumstances indicate that recorded value may not be recoverable. An impairment charge would be recorded when the decline in value is determined to be other-than-temporary. There was no impairment loss of long-term investment during the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. |
Goodwill | (n) Goodwill Goodwill is initially measured at cost, being the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred, the amount recognized for non-controlling interests and any fair value of the Company’s previously held equity interests in the acquiree over the identifiable net assets acquired and liabilities assumed. If the sum of this consideration and other items is lower than the fair value of the net assets acquired, the difference is, after reassessment, recognized in profit or loss as a gain on bargain purchase. The Company adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2017-04, Intangible – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. After adopting this guidance, the Company performs the quantitative impairment test by comparing the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying amount, including goodwill. If the fair value of the reporting unit exceeds its carrying amount, goodwill is not considered to be impaired. If the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value is recognized as impairment. Application of a goodwill impairment test requires significant management judgment, including the identification of reporting units, allocation of assets, liabilities and goodwill to reporting units, and determination of the fair value of each reporting unit. |
Impairment of long-lived assets | (o) Impairment of long-lived assets Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances (such as a significant adverse change to market conditions that will affect the future use of the assets) indicate that the carrying amount may not be fully recoverable or that the useful life is shorter than the Company had originally estimated. When these events occur, the Company firstly determine the unit of account for testing long-lived assets, and then identify the indicators of impairment. When indicators of impairment present, the company must then proceed to recoverability test. Recoverability test evaluates the impairment by comparing carrying value of the assets to an estimate of future undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated from the use of the assets and their eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future undiscounted cash flows is less than the carrying value of the assets, the Company recognizes an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying value of the assets over the fair value of the assets. Fair value is determined using anticipated cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the risk involved. Impairment charges recognized for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021 was US$ 283 842 6,054 |
Warranties | (p) Warranties The Company provides a manufacturer’s standard warranty on all vehicles sold. The Company accrues a warranty reserve for the vehicles sold by the Company, which includes the Company’s best estimate of the projected costs to repair or replace items under warranties and recalls when identified. These estimates are based on actual claims incurred to date and an estimate of the nature, frequency and costs of future claims. Changes to the Company’s historical or projected warranty experience may cause material changes to the warranty reserve in the future. The portion of the warranty reserve expected to be incurred within the next 12 months is included within accruals and other liabilities, while the remaining balance is included within other non-current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. Warranty expense is recorded as a component of cost of sales in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company reevaluates the adequacy of the warranty accrual on a regular basis. The Company considers the standard warranty is not providing incremental service to customers rather an assurance to the quality of the vehicle, and therefore is not a separate performance obligation and should be accounted for in accordance with ASC 460, Guarantees. Accrued warranty is included in other liabilities and the movement of accrued warranty is as following: SCHEDULE OF ACCRUED WARRANTY December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 US$’000 US$’000 US$’000 Accrued warranty - beginning of year 319 290 1,202 Warranty costs incurred (106 ) (89 ) (989 ) Provision for warranty - 86 131 Translation adjustment (9 ) 32 (54 ) Accrued warranty - end of year 204 319 290 |
Revenue recognition | (q) Revenue recognition Revenue is recognized when or as the control of the goods or services is transferred upon delivery to customers. Depending on the terms of the contract and the laws that apply to the contract, control of the goods and services may be transferred over time or at a point in time. Control of the goods and services is transferred over time if our performance: ● provides all of the benefits received and consumed simultaneously by the customer; ● creates and enhances an asset that the customer controls as the Company performs; or ● does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Company and the Company have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. If control of the goods and services transfers over time, revenue is recognized over the period of the contract by reference to the progress towards complete satisfaction of the performance obligation. Otherwise, revenue is recognized at a point in time when the customer obtains control of goods and services. Contracts with customers may include multiple performance obligations. For such arrangements, the Company allocates overall contract price to each distinct performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers For new Master Service Agreements (“MSA”) or for Purchase Orders (“PO”) from new customers, a credit check is required, which establishes collectability of the considerations to which the Company expects to be entitled. Management also has controls in place for the review of credit limits with existing customers. Other considerations in determining collectability include the customer’s payment history, prior or existing customer disputes, if any, and market conditions. When either party to a contract has performed, the Company presents the contract in the consolidated balance sheets as a contract asset or a contract liability, depending on the relationship between the entity’s performance and the customer’s payment. A receivable is recorded when the Company has an unconditional right to consideration. A right to consideration is unconditional if only the passage of time is required before payment of that consideration is due. If a customer pays consideration or the Company has a right to an amount of consideration that is unconditional, before the Company transfers a good or service to the customer, the Company presents the contract liability when the payment is made or a receivable is recorded, whichever is earlier. A contract liability is the Company’s obligation to transfer goods or services to a customer for which the Company has received consideration, or an amount of consideration is due, from the customer. The Company’s contract liabilities are primarily resulted from the performance obligation identified in the vehicle sales contract, which is recorded as deferred revenue and revenue will be recognized when future goods or services are transferred. Besides, amounts received on behalf of third parties are recorded as other current liabilities. Vehicle Sales Vehicle sales revenue includes revenues related to deliveries of new vehicles under the definition of a performance obligation under ASC 606. The Company recognizes revenue on vehicle sales upon delivery to the customer, which is when the control of a vehicle transfers. For the obligations related to the vehicle sales, the Company estimates the standalone selling price by considering costs used to develop and deliver the service, third-party pricing of similar options and other information that may be available. The Company provides a manufacturer’s limited warranty on all new vehicles sold to the customers, ensuring that the vehicles comply with agreed-upon specifications. As the manufacturer’s limited warranty is not separately sold to the customers, the Company does not consider the warranty as a separate performance obligation under the ASC 606-10-55-31. Sales of vehicle parts and accessories The Company recognizes revenue upon transfer of control to the customer which occurs at a point in time. When the Company performs shipping and handling activities after the transfer of control to the customer, they are considered as fulfillment activities, and accordingly, the costs are accrued for when the related revenue is recognized. Practical expedients and exemptions The Company follows the guidance on immaterial promises when identifying performance obligations in the vehicle sales contracts and concludes that labor related to assurance-type warranties is not a performance obligation considering this service is value-added service to enhance customer experience rather than critical items for vehicle driving and forecasted that usage of this service will be very limited. The Company also performs an estimation on the stand-alone fair value of the promise applying a cost-plus margin approach and concludes that the standalone fair value of foresaid service is insignificant, representing less than 5% of vehicle gross selling price and aggregate fair value of each individual promise. Revenue consists of the following: SCHEDULE OF REVENUE Related Parties Third Parties Related Parties Third Parties Related Parties Third Parties For the year ended December 31, 2023 December 31, 2022 December 31, 2021 US$’000 US$’000 US$’000 Related Parties Third Parties Related Parties Third Parties Related Parties Third Parties Vehicle sales $ 713 $ 6,967 $ 3,722 $ 7,908 $ 6,887 $ 5,395 Sales of vehicle parts and accessories $ 1,690 $ 113 $ 3,086 $ 145 $ 8,393 $ 1,528 Others $ - $ - $ 100 $ - $ 3 $ 97 Total revenues 2,403 7,080 6,908 8,053 15,283 7,020 All of the property and equipment of the Company are physically located in the PRC. The geographical location of customers is based on the location at which the customers operate and all of the Company’s revenue is derived from operations in the PRC for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. |
Cost of revenues | (r) Cost of revenues Cost of revenue includes direct parts, material, labor cost and manufacturing overhead (including depreciation of assets associated with the production) and reserves for estimated warranty cost. Cost of revenue also includes charges to write-down the carrying value of the inventories when it exceeds its estimated net realizable value and to provide for on-hand inventories that are either obsolete or in excess of forecasted demand. |
Cost of revenues – idle capacity | (s) Cost of revenues – idle capacity Idle capacity consists of production-related costs in excess of charges allocated to the Company’s finished goods in production. The costs include direct and indirect labor, production supplies, repairs and maintenance, rent, utilities, insurance and property taxes. The costs allocated to the Company’s finished goods are determined on a daily basis which is lower than its actual costs incurred. Costs in excess of production allocations are expensed in the period incurred rather than added to the cost of finished goods produced. Idle capacity expenses amounted to US$ 26,951 34,001 23,342 |
Research and development expenses | (t) Research and development expenses All costs associated with research and development (“R&D”) are expensed as incurred. R&D expenses consist primarily of employee compensation for those employees engaged in R&D activities, design and development expenses with new technology, materials and supplies and other R&D related expenses. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, R&D expenses were US$ 8,398 13,772 15,420 |

Employee benefits | (v) Employee benefits Full-time employees of the Company in the PRC participate in a government mandated defined contribution plan, pursuant to which certain pension benefits, work-related injury benefits, maternity insurance, medical care, employee housing fund and other welfare benefits are provided to the employees. Chinese labor regulations require that the PRC subsidiaries of the Company make contributions to the government for these benefits based on certain percentages of the employees’ salaries, up to a maximum amount specified by the local government. The PRC government is responsible for the medical benefits and the pension liability to be paid to these employees and the Company’s obligations are limited to the amounts contributed and no legal obligation beyond the contributions made. Total amounts of such employee benefit expenses, which were expensed as incurred, were approximately US$ 5,118 5,824 7,276 |
Government grants | (w) Government grants The Company’s PRC based subsidiaries received government subsidies from certain local governments. The Company’s government subsidies consist of specific subsidies. Specific subsidies are subsidies which are provided by the local government for a specific purpose, such as land fulfillment costs and production and capacity subsidies related to the manufacturing plant construction. The Company recognizes government subsidies until there is reasonable assurance that the Company will comply with conditions attaching to them and the grants will be received. Hence, the Company recorded specific subsidies as other non-current liabilities when received and the specific subsidies are recognized as other income at each stage when the Company is entitled to the amount or the required performance is met. The Company currently recognizes government subsidies 1) using a systematic basis over the periods in which the entity recognizes the related expenses or losses that the grants are intended to compensate and 2) when the grant becomes receivable if it compensates for expenses or losses already incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the Company has recognized subsidies of approximately US$ 3,748 26,514 19,467 131,145 80,995 522,652 See below for the nature of each government subsidy received and the related accounting treatment: SCHEDULE OF GOVERNMENT SUBSIDY No. US$’000 Type of Subsidies Accounting Treatment For the year ended December 31, 2023 No. US$’000 Type of Subsidies Accounting Treatment 1 3,270 Subsidies compensating for expenses or losses The government subsidy is recognized as government grant income when the amounts are received and conditions are met. 2 478 Subsidies related to fixed assets The Company recorded subsidies as other liabilities when received and recognized government subsidies as government grant income over the depreciable lives of the related fixed assets for which the subsidies are intended to compensate.

Income taxes | (x) Income taxes Current income taxes are recorded in accordance with the regulations of the relevant tax jurisdiction. The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and liability method in accordance with ASC 740, Income Tax Uncertain tax positions An uncertain tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. Penalties and interest incurred related to underpayment of income tax are classified as income tax expense in the period incurred. Interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, if any, are recorded under accrued expenses and other current liabilities on its consolidated balance sheets and under other expenses in its consolidated statements of operations. The Company did not recognize any significant interest and penalties associated with uncertain tax positions for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021. As of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the Company did not have any significant unrecognized uncertain tax positions. |
Warrants | (y) Warrants The Company classifies as equity any contracts that (i) require physical settlement or net-share settlement or (ii) gives the Company a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in its own shares. The Company classifies as liabilities any contracts that (i) require net-cash settlement (including a requirement to net-cash settle the contract if an event occurs and if that event is outside the control of the Company) or (ii) gives the counterparty a choice of net-cash settlement or settlement in shares. The Company accounts for its currently issued warrants in conjunction with the Company’s ordinary shares in equity. These warrants are indexed to the Company’s stock and meet the requirements of equity classification as prescribed under ASC 815-40. Warrants classified as equity are initially measured at fair value, and subsequent changes in fair value are not recognized so long as the warrants continue to be classified as equity. The details for warrants are disclosed in note 20(a). |
Value-added tax | (z) Value-added tax The Company is subject to statutory value-added tax (“VAT”) of 13 6 9 |
Statutory reserves | (aa) Statutory reserves The Group’s subsidiaries established in the PRC are required to make appropriations to certain non-distributable reserve funds. In accordance with the laws applicable to PRC’s Foreign Investment Enterprises, the Group’s subsidiaries registered as wholly owned foreign enterprises have to make appropriations from its after-tax profit (as determined under the Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises as promulgated by the Ministry of Finance of the People’s Republic of China (“PRC GAAP”) to reserve funds including general reserve fund, and staff bonus and welfare fund. The appropriation to the general reserve fund must be at least 10% of the after-tax profits calculated in accordance with PRC GAAP. Appropriation is not required if the reserve fund has reached 50% of the registered capital of the company. Appropriation to the staff bonus and welfare fund is at the Company’s discretion. The use of the general reserve fund, statutory surplus fund and discretionary surplus fund is restricted to the offsetting of losses or increasing capital of the respective company. The staff bonus and welfare fund is a liability in nature and is restricted to fund payments of special bonus to staff and for the collective welfare of employees. No reserves are allowed to be transferred to the Company in terms of cash dividends, loans or advances, nor can they be distributed except under liquidation. For the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, appropriations to the general reserve fund and the statutory surplus fund amounted to nil nil 4,968 |
Comprehensive income (loss) | (bb) Comprehensive income (loss) The Company applies ASC 220, Comprehensive Income, with respect to reporting and presentation of comprehensive loss and its components in a full set of financial statements. Comprehensive loss is defined to include all changes in equity of the Company during a period arising from transactions and other events and circumstances except those resulting from investments by shareholders and distributions to shareholders. For the periods presented, the Company’s comprehensive loss includes net loss and other comprehensive loss, which primarily consists of the foreign currency translation adjustments and actuarial loss arising from changes in financial assumptions on the Company’s defined contribution plan that has been excluded from the determination of net loss. |
Leases | (cc) Leases Operating lease The Company adopted the ASC 842, Leases The Company includes a right-of-use asset and lease liability related to substantially all of the Company’s lease arrangements in the consolidated balance sheets. All of the Company’s leases are operating leases. As the existing operating leases are short-term lease, right-of-use assets and the corresponding lease liabilities are nil and nil in the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively. The Company has elected not to present short-term leases on the consolidated balance sheets as these leases have a lease term of 12 months or less at commencement date of the lease and do not include options to purchase or renew that the Company is reasonably certain to exercise. The Company recognizes lease expenses for such short-term lease generally on a straight-line basis over the lease term. All other lease assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. Because most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate of return, the Company uses the Company’s incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at adoption date or lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The land use right (Note 2 (l),10) acquired represents lease prepayments to the local government authorities which is separately presented in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company determines the land use right agreement contains an operating lease. Land use right is carried at cost less accumulated amortization and impairment losses. |
Earnings (losses) per share | (dd) Earnings (losses) per share Basic earnings (losses) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) attributable to holders of ordinary shares by the weighted-average ordinary shares outstanding for the period. Potentially dilutive shares, which are based on the weighted-average ordinary shares underlying outstanding stock-based awards, warrants, or options using the treasury stock method or the if-converted method, if applicable, are included when calculating diluted net earnings (loss) per share attributable to holders of ordinary shares when their effect is dilutive. Since the Company has incurred losses for the years ended December 31, 2023, 2022 and 2021, the potential shares issuable related to outstanding warrants have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as the effect of such shares is anti-dilutive. Therefore, basic and diluted loss per share amounts is the same for each period presented. Earnout/Contingent Value Rights Pursuant to the BCA, 64,084,889 674,000,000 (i) The first tranche (along with earnings thereon) shall (i) vest proportionately based on the consolidated gross revenues of Chijet Motor and the Target Companies (including the period prior to Closing) as set forth in Chijet Motor ‘s audited annual financial statements included in Form 20-F or 10-K filed with the SEC for the calendar year ended December 31, 2023 (as adjusted for a fixed 6.5-to-1 Chinese yuan renminbi to U.S. dollar exchange rate) in excess of US$528,000 thousand, up to a maximum of 100% of the first tranche at US$801,000 thousand in consolidated gross revenues, or alternatively (ii) vest for 100% of the first tranche if the Chijet Motor Ordinary Shares on the applicable Trading Market is at least US$13.00 per share (as equitably adjusted for share splits, share capitalizations, share consolidations, subdivisions, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for at least twenty (20) out of thirty (30) Trading Days, through and including the thirtieth (30th) Trading Day after the date on which Chijet Motor files its annual report with the SEC on Form 20-F or 10-K (such trading criteria being collectively the “Trading Criteria”), for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, and any shares in the tranche that do not so vest will be surrendered to Chijet (along with earnings thereon) and cancelled. (ii) The second tranche (along with earnings thereon) will likewise either (i) vest proportionately based on the consolidated gross revenues of Chijet Motor and the Target Companies(including the period prior to Closing) as set forth in Chijet Motor’s audited annual financial statements included in Form 20-F or 10-K filed with the SEC for the calendar year ended December 31, 2024 (as adjusted for a fixed 6.5-to-1 Chinese yuan renminbi to U.S. dollar exchange rate)in excess of US$870,000 thousand, up to a maximum of 100% of the second tranche at US$2,206,000 thousand in consolidated gross revenues, or alternatively (ii) vest for 100% of the second tranche based on meeting the Trading Criteria during the applicable period for the year ended December 31, 2024, and any shares in the tranche that do not so vest will be surrendered to Chijet (along with earnings thereon) and cancelled. (iii) Any remaining Earnout Shares (along with earnings thereon) not vested or surrendered in the first or second tranches are eligible either to (i) vest proportionately based on the consolidated gross revenues of Chijet Motor and the Target Companies (including the period prior to Closing) as set forth in Chijet Motor’s audited annual financial statements included in Form 20-F or 10-K filed with the SEC for the calendar year ended December 31, 2025 (as adjusted for affixed 6.5-to-1 Chinese yuan renminbi to U.S. dollar exchange rate) in excess of US$1,616,000 thousand, up to a maximum of 100% of the final tranche at US$3,215,000 thousand in consolidated gross revenues, or alternatively (ii) vest for 100% of the final tranche based on meeting the Trading Criteria during the applicable period for the year ended December 31, 2025, and any shares in the tranche that do not so vest will be surrendered to Chijet (along with earnings thereon) and cancelled. Any Earnout Shares and earnings thereon that are surrendered to Chijet will be promptly reissued and delivered by Chijet to the CVR rights agent on behalf of the holders of the CVRs, to be distributed by the CVR rights agent pro rata among the holders of the CVRs. The accounting for the Earnout Shares was first evaluated under ASC 718 to determine if the arrangement represents a share-based payment. Considering that the Earnout Shares are issued to Chijet Inc. sellers, and there are no service conditions nor any requirement of the participants to provide goods or services, we determined that the Earnout Shares are not within the scope of ASC 718. In reaching this conclusion, we focused on the fact that the Earnout Shares are not provided to any holder of options or unvested stock but rather the arrangement is provided only to vested equity holders. Next, we determined that the Earnout Shares represent a freestanding equity-linked financial instrument to be evaluated under ASC 480. Based upon the analysis, we concluded that the Earnout Shares should not be classified as a liability under ASC 480. We next considered the conditions in ASC 815-10-15-74 and ASC 815-40 and concluded that the Earnout Shares are not within the scope of ASC 815. Therefore, the Earnout Share arrangement is appropriately classified in equity. As the business combination is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, the fair value of the Earnout Share arrangement as of the Closing Date is accounted for as an equity transaction. Therefore, contingent value rights do not give any effect in calculation of the earnings per share as of December 31, 2023. |
Segment reporting | (ee) Segment reporting The Company operates as one operating segment in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting |
Reclassification | (ff) Reclassification Certain prior periods amounts have been reclassified to be comparable to the current period presentation. These reclassifications have no effect on previously reported net assets or net income (loss). |

Repayment description | In 2014, Bijie Yabei New Energy Automobile Co., Ltd. (Bijie Yabei) became involved in a legal dispute with the Bijie Jinhaihu New District Management Committee (the “Plaintiff”) regarding a loan contract disagreement with the loan principal of RMB 10 million along with interest. The original judgment by the court (Case No. (2018) Qian 0502 Min Chu 7520) ruled in favor of the Plaintiff. Bijie Yabei appealed the decision, requesting the revocation and retrial or amendment of the judgment. The court of second instance in 2019 upheld the original judgment, and Bijie Yabei is now obligated to repay the loan principal and interest calculated at an annual rate of 6% from September 11, 2018, until the date of repayment. | |||||||||
